We Are Charlie Kirk

Rare card · No. 25207

"We Are Charlie Kirk" is an AI-generated song credited to Spalexma that was released on September 16, 2025. It is a tribute to American right-wing activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated six days prior on September 10. It was initially released as the final track to Spalexma's Christian-themed album Charlie Kirk Forever Alive (2025). The song first spread on social media due to its inclusion in AI-generated videos depicting conservative figures, such as Vice President JD Vance, tearfully singing it. Other TikTok accounts then attached the song to their own commemorations to Kirk, as well as ironic memes making light of his death. The latter included photos and videos of his face edited onto other pop cultural figures' faces, referred to as "Kirkifying" the person. "We Are Charlie Kirk" ultimately appeared in over 58,000 videos on the platform. Assumed to be an AI-generated song, it is one of the first such works to ever chart on Billboard or Spotify.
