Everyone who sees the hop hop hop trend asks the same thing: what's the song? The hop hop hop song is "Её парень" ("Her Boyfriend") by Shluzov, played slowed down, at roughly 0.79× speed. On TikTok it circulates as a user-uploaded sound called "original sound – venadeaakira." This guide explains how to find that sound, how to add it to your video, including a hop hop hop AI dance video made with Hop Hop Hop AI, and what to do on Reels and Shorts.
What the hop hop hop sound is
There are two names to know:
- The song: "Её парень" ("Her Boyfriend") by Shluzov. The trend uses it slowed down, which is why it sounds lower and heavier than the original track.
- The TikTok sound: "original sound – venadeaakira." On some versions the label reads "suara asli," which is Indonesian for "original sound." When you search "venadeaakira" under Add sound, the same clip is listed by its title, «Её парень» (0:11).
TikTok shows "original sound" when audio was uploaded as part of someone's video rather than picked from the music library. That's why searching a streaming service for "hop hop hop song" turns up nothing useful. The trend uses this slowed clip, so the TikTok sound is the one you want.
Here's one widely shared version with the sound:
How to find the hop hop hop sound on TikTok
Method 1: From a video (most reliable)
- Find any hop hop hop video in your feed, or search #hophophop in TikTok.
- Tap the spinning record icon or the sound name at the bottom of the video. It should read "original sound – venadeaakira."
- You'll land on the sound's page, which shows every video using it.
- Tap Use this sound to start a video with it right away.
Method 2: Search the sound library
- Tap + to create a video, then tap Add sound at the top.
- Search "venadeaakira". The trend sound shows up as «Её парень» (about 0:11 long, with 100K+ videos) — pick it.
- If several results show up, pick the «Её парень» one with the most videos and preview it to check it matches the trend. If you're unsure, use Method 1.
Save it for later
On the sound's page, tap Add to Favorites (the bookmark icon). Next time, you'll find it under Add sound → Favorites.

- Or use Add sound in the Shorts editor and search the library.
A note on copyright
The song belongs to its artist and rights holders. Please use each app's in-app sound library rather than ripping audio from someone else's video or downloading the track and baking it into your file. In-app sounds are made available by the platform for this purpose and keep your post connected to the trend. Re-uploaded audio can get your video muted, blocked or flagged.
That's also why our videos ship without audio: you add the official sound through the platform, the proper way.
