The TikTok trends just keep getting better and better. There was truly a challenge for everyone this week, and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect with longer days (hello daylight savings) and warmer weather approaching. This week’s trends were fun, a little challenging, but also very entertaining. So, get ready to put your entertainment chops to the test.

This Week In TikTok: LPD Moody, Getting Back On Your Drip, And More
Try out these trends!
1. ‘Batman’-LPD Moody
@joceline.e5 That is indeed the power of rhe Home Depot
♬ Batman - LPB Poody
This is where you’ll need your acting and gymnastics skills. Set to the tune of ‘Batman’ by LPD Moody, TikTokers have started a new trend inspired by seat recliners in cars. All you have to do is hit a couple of freestyle dance moves, and act like you're reclining your seat by doing a backbend. Some TikTok users are very flexible, and others...not so much. Either way, this is a pretty neat challenge that you can do with a group or solo. Just don’t hurt yourself!
2. ‘Pieces’ (Solo Piano Version)- Danilo Stankovic
@sherinicole455 She wants them to play so bad 😩❤️ ##fyp ##fy ##puppy ##puppies ##puppiesoftiktok ##foryou ##MyRoutine ##BachelorReady
♬ Pieces (Solo Piano Version) - Danilo Stankovic
Anytime that you have a piano instrumental of a song, things are bound to get a little reflective. Unlike the ‘Batman’ trend, there is no dancing with this challenge (unless, of course, you want to). It is more about sharing your most poignant moments or even using it to give instructions for a certain task. So, if you have a memory or skill that you would like to share, then you should give this challenge a try.
3. ‘Drip’- Klondike Blondie
It is never too late to get back on your drip, right? Reviving this popular track from 2018, the objective of the ‘Drip’ challenge is to do a comedy vlog reenactment of different ‘what people think when’ situations. For example, some TikTokers have made videos of things parents expect when they discipline their children. Another TikTok user made a video of how they expect their friends to act when they tell them they found a new show to watch. Have fun and get creative with it!
4. ‘My Kind of Woman’- Mac Demarco
@frostedtip Fat girl vibe only on my feed ##fyp ##asian ##foryoupage ##pandaexpress ##tiktok ##xyzbca
♬ My Kind of Woman - Mac DeMarco
In this challenge, TikTokers turn a traditional love song into a rather emotional trend highlighting their most stressful moments. We all have crappy days where we feel like we are 'hanging on by a thread' (a text message meme that pops up as soon as the song starts playing). One TikTok user described the pressures of being a senior in high school, while others talked about the on-going stress of dealing with a global pandemic. TikTok has always been a good stress reliever, so participating in this challenge could definitely be therapeutic.
That is all for this week, but as usual we will be back next week with the latest viral trends.
