The chicken wing song originated back in 2013 on the Nintendo DSi app called Flipnote Studios. The app was used to do frame by frame hand drawn animations, and that was where the chicken wing song was born. The original version of the song and video, created by Fred Blankenburg, can be seen below.
This emote isn’t the first time Epic Games have cashed in on a viral trend. In fact, it’s just one of a number of emotes that have been inspired by popular dances and expressions. The emotes “The Flow”, “Rollie”, “Say So”, and various other song-dance combinations have already found their way into the game.
