It’s not corn, but this 7-year-old viral video star has found something he loves nearly as much.
Tariq, better known as the “Corn Kid,” captured hearts with his devotion to the vegetable that “has the juice," and during a pre-Thanksgiving visit to TODAY, he revealed another endearing passion — this time for rhythm.
Have you been wondering what the "corn kid" has been up to these days?
When 7-year-old Tariq shared his wholesome love of corn with "Recess Therapy" this summer, he became a viral sensation. Everyone was talking about the kid who loves corn (or more accurately, "cohn"), quoting him, making songs about him and more. You couldn't go to a dinner party or meet a friend for coffee without the corn kid coming up.
What people loved about Tariq in that video was his pure innocence, his unique diction/syntax/pronunciations and the way he spoke to our collective adoration of corn. (And butter, which truly does change everything.)
The video had more than a million views on the "Recess Therapy" TikTok channel, but also went viral across various social media platforms from various accounts. At this point, he's become a pop culture meme, destined to go down in social media history.
