Nems has a song titled "Bing Bong" that was released in August. Knicks fan Jordie Bloom shouted the phrase on opening night of the Knicks' season in a video from Sidetalk, a one-minute street show by New York University students Trent Simonian and Jack Byrne. He added that Sidetalk NYC's intro sound to their videos and New York rapper Nems were also sources of inspiration for the saying. "The phrase is derived from the subway doors closing: 'Stand clear of the closing doors please bing-bong,'" Bloom said. In an interview with Complex, Jordie Bloom, the fan who said bing bong in the video, said that it didn’t even have anything to do with the Knicks. But what does the phrase even mean? Where does it come from? Jordie Bloom is the 26-year-old who said bing bong on the video. Since Bloom's viral moment, the phrase has become a social media sensation, popping up on Twitter during Knicks games this season. They've interviewed celebrities such as Lil Uzi Vert, Bella Hadid and A$AP Rocky.
Their Twitter and Instagram pages combine for over 700,000 followers and their YouTube channel has more than 3 million views.
