“扔麦克风”是指在表演或演讲结束之际故意地摔掉或扔掉麦克风的举动，以此来引人瞩目。但这多是具有象征意义的，或是为了强调某一令人称奇的观点而表达的惊叹。

The mic drop has been employed by rappers and comedians since the 1980s, and it's grown steadily in popularity since 2007, but it's only in the last year or so that it's become a meme throughout American culture. And no single person has been associated with the mic drop more frequently than the US president Barack Obama.

Google Trends shows that more people started wondering about the "mic drop" after that performance.
