"Pretty Boy Swag" is a song by American rapper Soulja Boy, released as the first single from his third studio album The DeAndre Way (2010). It features production from G5 Kids, who helped to write the song along with Soulja Boy.

The song became a meme in early 2019, on the video-sharing platform TikTok. As part of the "Pretty Boy Swag transformation meme" users upload short videos of themselves where they "transform into their favourite pop culture figures".[1] According to Mashable India, during the song's build up, users will don pieces of costumes and assume position. When the chorus' beat drops, they'll "cut to whatever obscure object they dressed as".[2]
