COMPLEX: The Complete History of the Birdman Handrub, in GIFs

P. Town

The Birdman Handrub is the simple gesture of rubbing your hands together that, for the past decade, has been to the signature move of Bryan "Birdman" Williams. From memes to music videos, the Internet can't get enough of it. Simply put, he's made the Handrub iconic. The Cash Money boss once blamed his hand rubbing habits on itchy palms, but we don't believe you for a second, Stunna.

Two years ago, we gathered nearly every single one of the music video appearances where Birdman's palms got to itching, but we figured now's a good time to turn up. We're ditching the stills and returning with a little bit of epic animation. Plus, he's been rubbing his hands plenty since the last hurrah. Flashy lifestyle, pleighbwoi.

Without further ado, we proudly present: The Complete History of the Birdman Handrub, in GIFS.
