YMMV / Lil' Jon

• Crazy Is Cool: The Daniels-directed music video for "Turn Down for What" is one of the most batshit music videos ever made.
• Fountain of Memes: Everything he shouts. Everything.
• Funny Moments:
  • Appearing on Chappelle's Show with Chappelle's Lil Jon.
  • Being responsible for one of the all-time great Reddit AMAs.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: The song "Snap Yo Fingers" took on another meaning in 2018 following the release of Avengers: Infinity War. For a while, the top comment posted on the music video on YouTube referred to it as "Thanos' anthem", another user created the appropriate mashup (spoiler warning), and the filk band The Merkins made this music video in which "Lil Than" does his own version of the song titled "Snap My Finger". The line "you can do it all by yourself" is especially funny now, as it immediately brings to mind The Stinger from Avengers: Age of Ultron:
  "Fine, I'll do it myself."
• Memetic Mutation: He's produced many over the years, including one of the earliest and most prolific on YTMND, from "Get Low": "Skeet Skeet Motherfucker!"
• Retroactive Recognition: Before becoming known as a musician, he was the A&R Director at So So Def Recordings during its heyday. During this era he also served as the producer of "My Boo" by the one-off group Ghost Town DJ's.
• Moment of Awesome:
  • Appearing on Chappelle's Show with Chappelle's Lil Jon.
  • Being responsible for one of the all-time great Reddit AMAs.
• Narm Charm: If you can get over how silly his songs are, they are pretty entertaining.
• Nightmare Fuel: The video for "Turn Down for What", which upon watching can feel more like a horror film than a music video. Special mention goes to when a woman tries to call the police, only for the man with the libido to come over, snatch the phone from her, then shout into the phone so hard, the officer on the other end's face melts.
• Signature Song: "Get Low". Shared with DJ Snake,^note who coincidentally later made a song with Dillon Francis called "Get Low" "Turn Down for What" has quickly begun to rival it.
