67 Kid
Also known as: 6-7 Kid · The 67 Kid · SCP-067 Kid
The 67 Kid is a viral TikTok meme centered on a boy named Mason who was filmed enthusiastically yelling "six, seven!" with animated hand gestures during a youth basketball video in March 20251. The phrase itself originated from Skrilla's drill rap song "Doot Doot (6 7)," which had already been gaining traction in basketball highlight edits6. Mason's clip turned the slang into a full-blown internet sensation, spawning classroom disruptions, remix edits, and even a horror-themed spinoff called SCP-0672.

Overview
Origin & Background
How It Spread
How to Use This Meme
The 67 meme works in a few different ways:
As audio: Grab the "six seven" sound clip (either from Skrilla's song or from the Mason video) and layer it over any edit. It typically pairs with hype moments, unexpected reveals, or deliberately absurd non-sequiturs. Basketball content is the classic pairing, but the audio works as a general punctuation mark.
As a catchphrase: Say or type "6-7" (or "67") as a standalone reaction. People often deploy it to hype something up, to be deliberately meaningless, or just to get a reaction from anyone who recognizes the reference.
With the hand gesture: The Mason clip includes a specific hand movement while saying the phrase. Recreating this gesture on camera is a common format for duets and reaction content.
As horror content: Take the Mason clip and apply distortion filters, VHS grain, glitch effects, and unsettling audio. Frame it as an SCP-style anomaly. This version leans into creepypasta aesthetics and works best as short-form horror.
Cultural Impact
Fun Facts
Mason's real name was revealed in coverage of the meme, but most people still just call him "the 67 Kid".
The phrase is pronounced "six-seven," not "sixty-seven." Getting this wrong is a reliable way to identify yourself as out of the loop.
Despite being called a "word," 6-7 is technically a number (or two numbers). Dictionary.com selected it anyway.
The original Cam Wilder video had nothing to do with the meme intentionally. Mason's moment happens at the 13:24 mark of a standard AAU basketball video.
Derivatives & Variations
SCP-067 Kid:
An analogue horror remix of the original Mason clip, applying glitch effects, distortion, and creepypasta framing. Gained its own viral momentum in late 2025[2].
LaMelo Ball "6-7" edits:
Basketball highlight compilations set to Skrilla's track, playing on the fact that LaMelo Ball is literally 6'7". These predated the Mason clip and helped seed the meme's spread[6].
Horror evolution content:
Russian-language YouTubers produced long-form videos exploring the "67 monster" concept, blending the meme with horror storytelling formats[3].
