How to Make the Wassup In A Minute Dance AI Video
From Blue Lock Fan Art to Your Group Chat
On October 23, 2026, TikTok animator @ristyisvalid posted a 14-second clip: three Blue Lock characters in streetwear, drawn by artist @aka_zayy, bobbing to a Jersey Club remix of Drake and Jhené Aiko's "From Time." The caption was "Wassup in a minute👀 wassup👀👀😭😭✌️" — and that named the trend.
The song loops one line from Jhené Aiko's verse: "What's up, been a minute, what's up." The remix, produced by Zbee, runs at about 135 BPM, and every beat lands a bounce. The original post hit 2.5 million views. Within a week, the format had spread to Jujutsu Kaisen, One Piece, Roblox, and cosplayers standing next to their drawn counterparts.
Then the real-person versions took over. People started swaying and pointing at the camera to the same beat — alone, with friends, on docks, in bedrooms. Niana Guerrero posted her version on Instagram and the dance pushed into a new audience entirely. The trend now runs two parallel lanes: anime edits on white backgrounds and real groups doing the sway together.
The Wassup In A Minute template on Summrs is the real-person group version. Three photos, three dancers, one dance.

The Dance Itself
The choreography is simple enough that the trend spread the way it did:
- The sway — feet planted, upper body dips on every beat and springs back. Hips wobble the most.
- The bounce — shoulders and head bob in rhythm with the sway. The whole body reads as one loose bounce.
- The point — on the "wassup" hit, a hand comes up and points at the camera or at the person next to you.
Nobody is doing a full routine. The appeal is the vibe — three people bobbing together, looking relaxed, on a beat that makes everything look cooler than it is. The less effort it looks like you are putting in, the better it reads.

Who Goes Where
- Photo 1 — Centre / main dancer. The featured position. Most cuts start here. If the video is for someone specific — a birthday, a roast, a farewell — put them in Photo 1.
- Photo 2 — Second dancer. Dances alongside the centre. Gets their own moments in the choreography.
- Photo 3 — Third dancer. Completes the formation. The trio holds together because everyone is doing the same bounce.
The three stay locked to their roles through every cut and angle change. Nobody swaps mid-video.
Photos That Work
Three people dancing in formation means the AI needs strong identity signals from each photo:
- One person per photo — no group shots. Each photo assigns one identity to one dancer.
- Face and full outfit visible — the dance shows you head to toe. Your outfit from the photo is what you wear in the video.
- Different outfits help — three people in similar dark clothes blend together during group shots. Contrasting colors or styles make each person distinct.
- Well-lit face — close-ups happen. Sunglasses, hats pulled low, or heavy shadows weaken the face through the dance.
The Song
The beat is Zbee's Jersey Club remix of "From Time" by Drake featuring Jhené Aiko, from Drake's 2013 album Nothing Was the Same. The looping vocal is Jhené Aiko's opening line: "What's up, been a minute, what's up." Most people hear it as "wassup in a minute, wassup" — which is how the trend got its name and why you will also see it spelled "wass up in a minute" or "whats up in a minute."
