What is the Ever since you left me (French Montana) trend?

Creators post a single uncut b-roll shot pinned with a paragraph-length text overlay that describes personal growth, a product switch, or a habit they left behind after a setback or break. It works with footage that can hold a long read. Brands use it to capture the before-and-after of dropping a tool, a workflow, or a routine that was not working, and what changed after.

Where did the Ever since you left me (French Montana) trend come from?

"Ever Since U Left Me (I Went Deaf)" is a song by New York rappers French Montana and Max B, released January 23, 2026, as the lead single from their collaborative mixtape Coke Wave 3.5: Narcos on Coke Boys Records. The track was produced by Johnny Goldstein and Juko and samples "That's the Way (I Like It)" by KC and the Sunshine Band. French Montana actively promoted the song on TikTok with a clip soliciting user participation, and the song spread quickly on the platform. The associated trend pairs the audio with a paragraph-length pinned text overlay describing personal growth, career elevation, or triumph following a setback, framing the "left me" premise as a catalyst for the creator's success, set over casual unedited lifestyle b-roll. The song reached number one on the US Rhythmic Airplay chart and number 82 on the Billboard Hot 100. A Big Bronx Remix featuring Remy Ma followed in 2026 and debuted at number one on the iTunes Hip-Hop chart.
