What is the Bust a Move emote in Fortnite?
Stemming from the iconic hit, "Bust a Move," by Young MC, the popular emote became a hit with Fortnite fans when it was first released. In fact, many fans of the dance probably had never even heard the song in the first place, meaning Fortnite has helped to introduce classics to a younger fanbase.
The original Bust a Move hit was released back in 1989, making it a classic amongst rap fans. So when did it come to Fortnite?
The Bust a Move emote was first released back in September of 2023, making it not even a year old. Since then, it has only been in the item shop six different times, with its most recent being April 11, 2024.
