“Everyone knows the YouTube sensation, WelvenDaGreat (more commonly known as ‘Deez Nuts’), who went viral after posting a video where he can be heard shouting ‘Deez Nuts’ into a telephone while speaking with a customer service agent. But is the real Deez Nuts guy running for president?” Bossip Staff, “Got ‘Emmmmm: Is Vine Star Welven Da Great Running For President In 2016 As ‘Deez Nuts’??” Bossip.com (August 24, 2015)
Because deez nuts is figurative, it can be said by someone of any gender.
Deez nuts is primarily used in real life conversation as a tension breaker, and online it is generally used for the sake of trolling an otherwise serious conversation on social media or forums. It can also be used as a putdown in response to perceived disrespect, where a person expresses their offense at another’s behavior by telling them to do various sexual acts to deez nuts.
Deez nuts has become a common online meme. Additionally, deez nuts is often used in prank calls and in prank videos as a reference to both Dr. Dre’s original song and WendelDaGreat’s video.
