What is the Group 7 viral TikTok trend that has everyone talking | World | News

An iconic TikTok trend has been causing a stir, dividing people into groups and sparking debate over which group is superior. The latest craze sweeping the platform was initiated by musician Sophia James, who cleverly manipulated the algorithm to promote her new song ‘So Unfair.’

In a clever marketing move, she posted seven videos of her new song on TikTok, each labelled with a different group number. The internet quickly decided that Group 7 was the most exclusive and desirable group to belong to.

Since James launched the video series, Group 7 has been hailed as the “elite” and “cool,” group, with members proudly posting their own TikTok videos in response.

Reba, a TikTok user, praised the power of Group 7, stating: “I haven’t seen anything like this in a while,” and “It’s also immaculate marketing.”, reports the Mirror US.

She went on to explain the trend, noting that “everyone is using her song” in their own TikTok videos.

So how do you determine which group you’re in?

It all depends on which video you see first. If the Group 7 video pops up on your timeline before any of the others, then congratulations – you’re part of the coveted Group 7.

Which celebrities and brands have hopped on the Group 7 trend?

Actress Madelyn Cline, influencer Hayleyy Baylee, skincare brand Aveeno, and even car manufacturer Hyundai USA have joined in on the trend.
