"Originally, the word was hip hop slang.[3] It first appeared in mass media in 2001 in a line by rapper Keith Murray in the song "Fatty Girl": "You got a badonkadonk, girl, don't hurt nobody!" The term gained a wider audience in the fall of 2002 through Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott's #2 hit "Work It" which includes the lyric "keep your eyes on my ba-bump-ba-bump-bump, and see if you can handle this ba-donk-a-donk-donk" .[4]

Throughout the 2002 season of Crank Yankers, badonkadonk was a catchword of the character Spoonie Luv [5] voiced by comedian Tracy Morgan. Morgan explained the term during his August 16, 2003 appearance on Late Night With Conan O'Brien as "one cheek goes up, badonkadonk; the other goes down, badonkadonk". The term was also featured as an example of black slang in "I Know Black People", a quiz show skit from the second season of Chappelle's Show.

The term gained a new audience in 2005 from "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk", a chart-topping country music song by Trace Adkins about a woman in a night club renowned for her dancing and her badonkadonk. This song illustrates how the term has moved beyond its African-American origins into the mainstream, although some listeners mistakenly assumed that Adkins had coined the term.[6]

In the 2006 episode of the Showtime series Weeds entitled "Last Tango in Agrestic," the term is elucidated for the main character. The term is also used in the 2006 episode "My Chopped Liver" of the NBC sitcom Scrubs.

Occasionally the term is used pejoratively such as the 2007 award-winning advertisement for Subway in which a woman at a competitor's restaurant orders "thunder thighs and a badonkadonk butt". [7]

In 2007, a new clubnight called Badonkadonk opened in central London, UK - offering retro to current indie/pop/disco/electronica music to a gay and mixed crowd of partygoers, and greatly expanding use of this slang term of the other side of the Atlantic."
