Tiger King has taken over the internet with memes, tweets, and hashtags. The song parodies, however, are the most amazing. Which are the top five?

If you haven’t seen Tiger King by now, you’re missing out on a cultural phenomenon. If Joe Exotic ran for office today, he might actually win. The perfect combination of social media ascendency, corona virus quarantine, and binge watching created a monster. Of the many questions, one definitely remains:

What’s the best Tiger King song parody?

Song possibilities

How do you outperform Joe Exotic’s own music and videos? Well, aside from the fact he Milli Vanilli’d the entire thing, he did have some great songs. Who could forget the classic “I Saw a Tiger,” which is an absolute tear-jerker? It’s an amazing song, top ten worthy. So emotional. If any of the top country artists had been behind the exact same song, with the exact same sound, it goes top ten.

Then again, it’s not even close to perhaps the best diss track ever. Tupac’s “Hit ‘Em Up” used to hold that title, but Joe Exotic turned straight savage with his epic throwdown  “Here Kitty Kitty.”

Now, none of the following parody songs can come close to how completely perfect Joe Exotic’s video exposes Carole Baskin for what she allegedly did to her husband. (Wink wink, with sardine oil, wink wink). These videos, however, are amazing in their own rights.

May the Tiger King discussion, memes, documentaries, interviews, and parodies live on forever. Without further ado, let’s get to the first video.
