A phrase that made an old complaint suddenly unanswerable.
What this was
Short for nepotism baby: the child of famous parents in the same industry. A TikTok coinage that a New York magazine cover turned into a year-long argument about who gets to be discovered.
It first appeared in 2022, during short-form and streams.

Where it came from
There is no original to identify: this spread through many separate posts at once rather than from a first one. ViralWorld holds no copy of it either — what it was, when it spread and what people called it is the record.
Nothing here is claimed to be the first version of this, because research established there was not one — it appeared in many places at once.
Not established. This index only names a creator where the evidence supports it.
