Expectant Couple Announce Their News Through a Nostalgic Anthem

With elaborate surprise pregnancy announcements in vogue, the Meeks wanted to find a personal yet light-hearted way to tell family and friends they're expecting. The fun-loving couple decided to enlist the help of a nostalgic 90s anthem and take to the car, where some of the best conversations can take place. The pair rapped to a parody of Will Smith's Fresh Prince of Bel Air, swapping in some personalised lyrics to tell their story. The couple's news helped land them a huge viral hit, with their recording attaining over four million views in the first three weeks of being uploaded. As they told Storyful, they had "no idea it would blow up like it has!" (Footage By YouTube/Jesse Meek/Storyful via Getty Images)
