Original: @xantoofunny on TikTok · music: "Wipe Me Down" (Foxx feat. Boosie Badazz & Webbie) · AI render · two sample photos, both AI-generated
Also called: Wipe Me Down dance · Wipe Me Down trend · Wipe Me Down TikTok dance · Wipe Me Down challenge · Wipe Me Down AI dance · Carnell stomp · Wipe it down dance
The Wipe Me Down dance is a low, bouncy stomp done to "Wipe Me Down", the 2007 Louisiana rap hit by Foxx, Boosie Badazz (then Lil Boosie) and Webbie. Baltimore TikTok creator Carnell Nichols has been dancing it to this song since at least June 2020 and calls it the "Carnell stomp". The version people are remaking with AI right now is a 15-second clip of two friends in a room lined with teal cabinets, posted by @dadxander (now @xantoofunny) on 17 August 2026: one leans into the camera and dances, then the other takes over.
Our template is that clip, with the real footage and the original sound. Upload one photo and you become the guy in the black shirt who leans in and dances first. Add a second photo and your friend becomes the guy in the grey hoodie who takes over at the end, while you stand back with your arms crossed. The room, the camera and the timing stay the same.
What is the Wipe Me Down dance?
The Wipe Me Down dance is a stomp, not a choreography with counts. The dancer stays low with knees bent, stamps one foot after the other, swings both hands down at the floor and bounces back up, with the odd jump in between. It is loose on purpose: people copy the energy more than exact steps.
The Wipe Me Down trend on TikTok is that dance to the remix of the 2007 song. On 8 November 2026 the #wipemedown hashtag had 30,867 videos and 761 million views, #wipemedowndance had 7,926 videos, and #carnellstomp, the name the dance's creator gave it, had 1,791 videos and 268.9 million views.
Who is the Wipe Me Down dance guy?
The Wipe Me Down dance guy is Carnell Nichols, a content creator from Baltimore who posts on TikTok as @trendsetterrrrrrr and on Instagram as @carnelln. His TikTok bio reads "The original character".
Carnell Nichols was already doing the dance to this song on 13 June 2020, in a post tagged #wipemedownchallenge #baltimore #louisiana that now has 1.8 million plays. What made it spread were his battle videos, where he dances next to other people's clips. He calls the one from 8 August 2023 "the first battle video… this started it all"; it has 5.5 million plays and 626,600 likes.
On 14 September 2026, when AI versions were starting to appear, Carnell Nichols posted "I am the creator of this trend and dance it's called Carnell stomp" (2.3 million plays). If you are looking for the Wipe Me Down dance tutorial or the original dance video, his account is the place to start.
The song: "Wipe Me Down" by Foxx, Boosie Badazz and Webbie
"Wipe Me Down" came out in 2007 on Trill Entertainment, the Baton Rouge, Louisiana label, and is on the May 2007 compilation Trill Entertainment Presents: Survival of the Fittest. The original track is Foxx on his own. The one everybody knows, and the one TikTok uses, is the remix with Lil Boosie (now Boosie Badazz) and Webbie.
The remix peaked at number 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 14 July 2007, after 18 weeks on the chart, and at number 8 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs on 30 June 2007, where it stayed 31 weeks. Credits differ depending on where you look: Billboard listed it as Lil' Boosie featuring Foxx and Webbie, and Apple Music, Spotify and TikTok's own sound now list the artist as Trill Family. There is also a UGK remix with Pimp C and Bun B.
"Wipe me down" means you are clean, fresh, fly: like the last wipe after a car wash, nothing left to fix. The slang has other meanings too, but that is the one the song brags about.

The original Wipe Me Down duo video
The original Wipe Me Down duo video is real, not AI. @dadxander filmed it on a phone held low, in one take with no cuts, and posted it on 17 August 2026 with the caption "Wipe me down". On 8 November 2026 it had 13.3 million plays, 1.9 million likes, 58,300 shares and 104,400 saves.
Some sites call it the kitchen clip, but there is no stove or sink: the walls are floor-to-ceiling teal cabinets with a counter and a mirror, so it looks more like a walk-in closet. The guy in the black shirt and gold chain is the one who leans in first; his friend in the light grey hoodie and red trousers waits by the counter, then takes over.
The template, shot by shot
We pulled a frame every half second from the 15-second template. It is one continuous shot from a fixed, low phone.
0 to 0.5 s: the guy in the black shirt leans right into the lens, face filling the frame.
0.5 to 3 s: he steps back and starts the stomp at the front of the frame. His friend in the grey hoodie leans on the counter behind him on the left.
3.5 s: a small jump, then back down into the low stomp, hands swinging at the floor.
6 s: the short version ends here, in the middle of his solo.
7 to 8.5 s: he comes closer to the camera, still stomping.
8.5 to 9.5 s: the friend walks forward and they jump together at about 9.5 s.
10 to 15 s: the friend dances at the front, and the guy in the black shirt stands on the right with his arms crossed, watching.
Who plays which role
Photo 1 replaces the guy in the black shirt, black trousers and gold chain: he leans in first and dances until about 9 seconds, then stands back with his arms crossed. Photo 2 is optional and replaces his friend in the light grey hoodie, red trousers and white sneakers, who waits at the counter and takes over for the last five seconds. Without a second photo, the friend stays as he is in the original.
Roles go by upload order, not gender. In our sample, a woman plays the guy in the black shirt and a man plays the friend; both keep their own face and hair and wear the original outfits. Our first two test renders got the friend wrong, one did not swap him at all and one kept the original dreadlocks on the new face. We rewrote the scene description and the next renders swapped both people, hair included.
If you are doing it with a friend, pick 15 seconds. The handover happens at about 9 seconds, so the 6-second version is your solo, with your friend only in the background.
How people do the Wipe Me Down trend
Before the AI wave, people filmed it for real: Carnell's battles with other dancers, tutorials, and people trying the stomp at home. The duo clip from August 2026 added the handover: one person dances, the other cuts in.
The AI versions keep the room and replace the people. On TikTok you can see cartoon characters, babies and famous faces in the teal closet, most of them with #capcut and a "Try this template" link. Our template does the same with your photos: your face in the real footage, the real song.
Put your dog or cat in it
Switch photo 1 to Pet and your dog or cat takes the lead role: it keeps its own face and fur, wears the black shirt and gold chain, leans into the camera and dances in front of the counter. Our sample is a golden retriever. In that 6-second test the friend in the hoodie stepped forward a few seconds early, so pick 15 seconds if you want the full handover. Same price as a person.
Wipe Me Down AI vs CapCut templates
Most Wipe Me Down AI videos on TikTok are made with CapCut templates: you tap "Try this template" under a post and swap in your photos. CapCut's free plan has free templates and basic editing, and its AI features run on credits that come with CapCut Pro, priced in your local currency on CapCut's site. If you already pay for CapCut Pro and want to edit the clip further in the app, that is the easiest way.
TrendTemplate is for people who want the original duo clip with their own faces, the original song, and no subscription: 6 seconds for 5 credits, 15 seconds for 15 credits, and you download an MP4 ready to post. We are not affiliated with CapCut.
Photos that work
The face fills the frame in the first half second, then the dancer is seen full body. Use a sharp, front-facing photo with even light, no sunglasses and one person per photo. Waist-up or full-body both work.
You wear the outfit of the person you replace, not the clothes in your photo. Your face, hair and skin tone come from your photo.
Why it is 9:16
The original was filmed vertically on a phone, so the template is 9:16. It posts straight to TikTok, Reels and Shorts without bars.
How much does a Wipe Me Down video cost?
A 6-second Wipe Me Down video costs 5 credits. The cheapest way to make one is the Try pack: $4.99 for 5 credits.
| Length | Credits | Cheapest pack that covers it |
|---|---|---|
| 6 s | 5 | Try · $4.99 (5 credits) |
| 15 s | 15 | Single · $9.99 (15 credits) |
No subscription. Credits never expire, and a failed render gives your credits back automatically.
