What is the ‘Dirt Man’ TikTok Song? Viral Parody Takes Over the App

Musician Carter Vail’s latest hit, ‘Dirt Man’, has become a sensation on TikTok. Here’s all the information we have on this comical viral song.

On April 26, 2024, Vail’s video for ‘Dirt Man’ has gained a following of over 15 million views and 13,000 comments from fans who appreciate the lyrics of his song.

The idea behind this belief is that men store dirt beneath their pillow to prevent the mythical “dirt man” from taking them to his underground lair.

“I always make sure to have some dirt under my pillow in case the dirt man comes to town. It’s a precaution so that he won’t take me down to his lair deep under the mountain, where he keeps all his dirt underground.”

WilligansIsland, another user, developed a fast-paced Dungeons and Dragons plot centered around the Dirt Man. According to him, the Dirt Man would possess a formidable power as a high-ranking fey being.

One user commented that it was inevitable for the dirt man to come to D&D and hopefully, the next development would be a dirt man movie.

One person stated, “To me, Dirt Man embodies the essence of Appalachian folk lore.”
