What is the Meaning of “Fishy On Me” by Tiko?
“Fishy on Me” is an impromptu or freestyle song that Tiko decided to put together one day. Or as he explained it, “it was just… a random thing” that he “put out as a joke”. The YouTuber also went on to elaborate that he didn’t expect the tune to blow up. And after the success of this track, he decided to take his music career a lot more seriously.
But that said, “Fishy on Me” remains by far his most-popular release. And as of this writing, it is considered to be his most notable work, music or otherwise.
As further implied by Tiko, this song is not meant to make any type of particular sense. Instead, as a popular YouTuber he’s developed a reputation for the likes of “wearing the fishstick skin from Fortnite” and leading an entity known as “the Fish Army”.
So his artistry tends to revolve around a fish-related motif. And relatedly, he created this song specifically to appeal to his established fans, i.e. who knew Tiko’s style already.
So again, the lyrics do not follow any type of discernible storyline or subject matter besides the recurrent use of the phrase “fishy on me”. Or let’s say that if it does serve any specific purpose, it’s the propagate Tiko’s brand, such as the mention of “Fishy Nippies” (which became the title of another song he dropped in 2020) as well as the vocalist encouraging viewers, before all is said and done, to “like and subscribe” to the video and his channel respectively.
“I finally found a place and the fishy gotta pee
