【Gary Eberhart Archives】

If Paul McCartney's work with Kanye West and Gary Eberhart ArchivesRihanna didn't prove his hipness for you, perhaps this will: The original Beatle has officially cosigned the self-proclaimed Black Beatles in the most fitting of ways—the #MannequinChallenge.

McCartney shared his version of the viral internet challenge that has folks frozen in place everywhere from high school hallways to football stadiums.

Most of the #MannequinChallenge videos are set to the tune of "Black Beatles" by Rae Sremmurd, who rap about being related to the one and only Paul McCartney on the track. So naturally, his video also featured the song from the Atlanta-based duo.
