Pop culture references
In an advertisement for the chocolate snack Swoops, the song was used with the changed lyric, "Swoop! There it is".Beavis and Butt-Head once watched the video for this song, which features the word "Whoomp" on screen several times. Beavis thus described it as a good video for learning how to read.
In Chris Rock’s “Bigger and Blacker,” he says,“You don't like Puerto Ricans? Your daughter's gonna come home with ‘Livin' la vida loca!' Don't you just love that shit? That's a catchy-ass song. You just want to jump up on shit. 'Livin' la vida loca! Come on!' l feel that shit. l'll be driving, 'Livin' la vida loca!' l love that shit. That ain't going nowhere. That's gonna be out a long time. That shit is like the Puerto Rican Whoomp! (There It Is)!”
Note
- British dance band Clock did a Cover of Whoomp! (there it is)
