Subsequently, this usage was adopted into African-American Vernacular English (AAVE), gaining widespread recognition through Sir Mix-a-Lot's song Baby Got Back (1992). However, the term's connotation shifted to a more derogatory sense following a reference by radio personality Charlamagne Tha God to ReesaTeesa's highly viral series Who TF Did I Marry? on the social media platform TikTok. In this context, he described the behavior depicted in the series as big back behavior.
