Homer Let the Barts Out
A viral AI-generated brainrot song about Homer Simpson accidentally freeing a horde of Bart Simpsons who wreck Springfield, spawning countless animated covers.
'Homer Let the Barts Out' is an AI-generated song and meme built on the absurd premise that Homer Simpson accidentally released a huge pack of Bart Simpsons into Springfield, who go on to cause citywide chaos. Its catchy, repetitive hook (playing off 'Who Let the Dogs Out') made it a magnet for lip dubs, fan animations, and AI-generated music videos.
History
TikToker @rabadoonga posted the original 'Homer Let the Barts Out' song with an AI-generated music video on May 17th, 2026. It picked up steady views over the following weeks but exploded in early July 2026 once other creators began making their own animated and AI-generated music videos to the track, spreading it to Instagram Reels and X. An inverse spinoff, 'Marge Kept the Lisas In,' followed shortly after.
