Background

In early 2020, Mufasa & Hypeman started gaining viral success through dance clips and meme videos. English DJ Riton and producers The Invisible Men became aware of the duo through their viral videos on YouTube. About the collaboration, he revealed, \"They are the only people who should be allowed to use social media in 2021! They got a lot of people through 2020, and so it's only right to make a song out of it and do it all again in 2021\".\n

Music video

The official music video for \"Friday\" features Mufasa waking the cameraman up, then joining Hypeman and some friends to dance on a boat, in a house, near a car, and in a desert. The video features some of Mufasa's viral dancing, as well as Riton DJing and John Reid of Nightcrawlers appearing to \"sing\" his sampled vocals from the original \"Push the Feeling On\" remix.\n

In popular culture

At the 2020 Tuscan Grand Prix, Formula 1 driver Lando Norris sung \"Friday\" during the first free practice session on the race radio. The song was then immediately associated with him, prompting Norris to beg his fans to stop singing it to him.\n
