| What it is | |
|---|---|
| Song | STORM II |
| Artists | GENER8ION and Yung Lean |
| Pair | STORM I and STORM II, released together |
| Film | STORM, a short music film |
Who made it
- GENER8ION is the music project of the French producer Surkin.
- Yung Lean is a Swedish rapper.
- The STORM film was directed by Romain Gavras, with choreography by Damien Jalet.
Streaming services sometimes list the pair as one release with both parts. If you see “STORM I & II” or “STORM Pt. I & II”, it’s the same project.
STORM I or STORM II?
The two parts sound very different. STORM I is the darker, harsher half. STORM II is the bright, building one, with piano and strings and chanted shouts, and it is the one people post the trend with. If the track you found sounds heavy and gloomy, you have STORM I.
Other songs called “Storm” exist. Check the artist names, not just the title.
The film behind the trend
STORM is set at a British boarding school. Its last scene shows students in identical black suits moving as one: freezing, throwing their heads back to the sky, and bowing on the beat around a single figure who doesn’t move. That figure is the role you play in the trend.
The AI trend keeps the scene and swaps in your face as the one in the middle. What is the Storm Dance AI trend walks through the shots.

Re-uploads labeled “original sound” sometimes carry the song too. They work, but your video joins that upload’s page instead of the song’s. The sound guide has full steps for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

Using the song in your own remake
- Filming a remake with friends? Play STORM II from a speaker while you film so everyone bows on the beat, then mute that audio and add the library sound when you post.
- Made it with a prompt? The video is silent or has made-up audio. Add STORM II from the app’s library; don’t rely on a song the tool invents.
- Posting outside TikTok, Reels and Shorts? The song belongs to its rights holders, so use the app’s own music library where there is one rather than uploading the track yourself.
The free guide has a full shot plan for a filmed remake, timed to the song.
Why this song works for the scene
STORM II builds and builds, and the hits are sharp and evenly spaced. That gives the crowd a clear moment to throw back its heads and a steady pulse to bow on, while the one in the middle does nothing at all. The contrast between a huge, euphoric track and one person standing still is the whole joke, and it fits almost any caption.
