"That's My Best Friend" is a 2015 hip-hop novelty song by rapper and social media personality Tokyo Vanity. After originally posting a funny clip on Vine of her and her "best friend" and fellow Viner, Summerella, it became a viral internet meme. Tokyo went on to be cast on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta for Seasons 7, 8 & 9. Background

Many celebrities from Kendall Jenner to Khloe Kardashian were seeking a best friend to dance with. Tokyo teamed up with producer RhondofromJersey to turn that clip into a full song.
