I don't like 'holla at ya boyi' either.
'That's whassup' i use.
'Yo shorty'- i hate that shitt. I feel like its so disrespectful and degrading to our women.
'get crunk'- i always view this in congruence with a lack of intellect, i don't kno why.
This is the first i'm hearing of 'co-sign'.

i was thikin no-one in SA ever uses the words fuh-gazee (fake/knock off), chuuch (southern accented 'church'...but used in place of 'word'/'preach' sometimes. there's lots more kewl ishh, 'specially from the south and west US but peeps 'round here act ignant...watch too much MTV and get it all wrong then use it.

peace

well, basically to cosign is to add to someoe's statement (say for example) usually without invitation. the term is usually used in a negative context.

so that would mean your "yeah, da's right" niggas. you know the ones...don't front like u dont know none neither.

Well I wouldnt say "co sign" is used in a negative because its origanally a legal term. Just another way of agreeing w/ someone or something.

Its piff!! - meaning, its crack, its drugs, but the highest of calibur! "Yo that verse you dropped was piff! brilliant!"

no homo! - used in a sentence "I'm the greatest emcee there is! I can eat your ass easy(no homo!)" explaining, there was no homosexual references in that statement so don't get it twisted you lil bastards!

Skeezer! - A more commonly used term in the southern U.S., meaning a woman of low class or just straight up a dirty hoe!

Off the chain! - Meaning, its out of control but in a good way; very enjoyable! "Yo that party was off the chain!"

Poppin Trunk! - Another southern U.S. term, it is the action of opening the trunk of your car and showing off the neon lights and sound system you may have! Like I said, its a southern thing!



Thats all for now folks!
