This type of meme known as the “Imma let you finish” meme
became popular after Kanye West ran onstage during Taylor Swift’s acceptance
speech after winning the best music video during the 2009 MTV music awards. He
interrupted her speech and said that Beyonce had the best music video of all
time. This became popular because it was such a ridiculous thing that happened
that it was funny and horrible at the same time. He slighted Taylor Swift on
national television and now it’s a running joke that can be used for anything
of the same genre or origin, such as this meme about The Little Mermaid. Over
time, the meme became more popular and the joke is still used in reference to
this event. Taylor Swift subtly addressed it when she hosted SNL, and other
celebrities also shared their views on the situation via twitter and other
social networks. Beyonce also dished it back to Kanye before. Needless to say,
it was a thoroughly awkward and cringe-worthy moment that has created this
meme.
