"Mek It Bunx Up" has been played on radio stations and nightclubs in several locations worldwide, and was featured on FOX's "So You Think You Can Dance."
In 2015, the song gained online popularity after Parris Goebel (who choreographed Justin Bieber’s "Sorry" music video) recorded an impromptu performance dancing to the song on YouTube alongside students from her class at Urban Dance Camp. Since her original upload, there have been numerous independently made videos by dancers from around the world as well. The track also made it to #30 on the Bulgarian Top 40 Radio Charts and reached #95 on Shazam's World Charts in January 2016.
