How it works

How to make a Wassup in a Minute AI video

Three steps. No prompt to write, no timeline to edit.

  1. 1

    Upload your photo

    Choose a clear, front-facing photo of one adult. A knees-up or full-body shot gives the generator more to work with.

  2. 2

    AI draws you in

    Your photo is redrawn as an original anime character in baggy streetwear on a white background, swaying side to side on the beat.

  3. 3

    Download and post

    Get a vertical MP4, then add the trend sound in TikTok or Reels if it is available for your account and region.

Photos that work

The trend

What is the Wassup in a Minute trend?

Wassup in a Minute is a TikTok animation trend built around anime-style characters in oversized streetwear, a clean white background and a relaxed side-to-side sway.

In the original group edits, characters appear one after another on the beat, often with a quick white flash between each entrance. The motion is small on purpose: feet planted, body swaying, a head nod or a hand gesture here and there.

The look is closely tied to Blue Lock fan art and the “Atlanta Lock” nickname for its streetwear redesigns. The AI version is a personal branch of the trend: instead of drawing a character, you start from your own photo and get an original character inspired by the format.

Origin

Where did the Wassup in a Minute trend come from?

The song, the art style and the AI version all have different starting points.

  1. 2013

    Drake releases “From Time” featuring Jhené Aiko on Nothing Was the Same.

  2. Early 2026

    A Jersey Club remix connected to the “From Time” sound is reported to circulate, credited to the producer Zbee.

  3. Oct 22–23, 2026

    Animator @ristyisvalid posts Blue Lock streetwear characters swaying on white. The Oct 23 post captioned “Wassup in a minute” names the trend; the character art credits @aka_zayy.

  4. Late Oct 2026

    Other anime characters join, CapCut tutorials spread, and a Roblox version reaches a gaming audience.

  5. Late Oct 2026

    Photo-to-video AI generators appear, letting people put themselves in the lineup.

The song

What is the Wassup in a Minute song?

The trend sound is a Jersey Club remix connected to “From Time” by Drake featuring Jhené Aiko, from the 2013 album Nothing Was the Same. Jhené Aiko's opening greeting is what many people hear as “wassup in a minute”, which gave the trend its name.

The words are closer to “wassup, been a minute”, so you will see several spellings. They all point to the same sound and edit.

Spellings people search for

  • Wassup in a Minute
  • Wassup, been a minute
  • Wassup wait a minute
  • In a minute wassup
  • Wasala in a minute

Add the Wassup in a Minute sound on TikTok

  1. Download your MP4. It is vertical, so it fills the screen.
  2. Open a Wassup in a Minute post on TikTok, tap the sound name and choose “Use this sound”.
  3. Line up the first beat with your first character so every entrance lands on the beat.
  4. Add #wassupinaminute and turn on the AI-generated label if the app asks for it.

We don't supply the remix. Music availability depends on the platform, your region and your account type.
