Multi-platinum tracks and music videos by artists like Nicki Minaj ("Anaconda"), Jennifer Lopez ("Booty"), and Megan Thee Stallion transformed the concept into an anthem of female empowerment, bodily autonomy, and commercial dominance.

In the 19th century, the term "ass worship" was used to describe a type of fetishistic adoration of the buttocks, often associated with same-sex desire. This theme was explored in various literary and artistic works, including those by authors like Gustave Flaubert and Emile Zola.
