** "X but Stingy claims everything" videos have become extremely popular after "We Are Number One but Stingy claims everything" was uploaded in November 2016. These videos involve a song but Stingy claims certain words in it by saying "This [word] is mine!" It then shows a zoom of the face of the person who sung it, then Stingy's face.
