#StraightOutta Photos Take Over Twitter — 30,000 On Instagram: Make Your Own #StraightOutta App Memes
More than 30,000 photos show up on Instagram under the #straightoutta hashtag. With Ice Cube promoting the premiere of his upcoming Straight Outta Compton film in a funny bit with Jimmy Fallon it’s no wonder #StraightOutta is taking over social media. In that bit, Ice Cube joked about the things his former group’s acronym N.W.A. didn’t stand for. On Friday, August 7, however, StraightOuttaSomewhere.com has gotten so much traffic that it has landed as one of the most popular URLs listed on Alexa.com’s “What’s Hot?” list, which tracks the hottest websites of the day.
“Straight Outta Somewhere. Where you from?”
The website — when it’s working — allows users to type whatever word(s) they’d like after the “Straight Outta” text, and upload a photo of their own to use as the background and resize however they’d like.
As expected, a search for #StraightOutta on Twitter proves that folks have been using the #StraightOutta app aplenty in order to create a bunch of funny #StraightOutta memes using celebrity photos.

Some are simply using the #StraightOutta app to represent the cities they love. Others are using the #StraightOutta website to make jokes against Bill Cosby, calling the comedian “Straight outta pills,” due to the plethora of rape and drug allegations levied against him. As reported by the Inquisitr, Cosby admitted hiding financial transactions from his wife, Camille. It was money he allegedly used to pay off women he’d had sex with to keep them quiet.
Meanwhile, rappers like Drake have also been featured in the #StraightOutta photos, with one Twitter user claiming Drizzy Drake had just left Nicki Minaj.
Other Drake fans are using the #StraightOutta hashtag to publicize his latest album paying homage to his locale, Views from the 6.

For the most part, the #StraightOutta photos have proven to be a way to not only represent hometowns, but ideals and humorous copywriting skills. Especially ones that proclaim Jesus as “Straight outta Nazareth” or ones that display an empty roll of toilet paper proclaiming they are “straight outta toilet paper.”
