No cap seems to mean "no lie". So it maybe means "I swear to god, you are talking shit right now for real". Bit I don't know.
Remember when comic artists and cartoonists would make up some outlandish slang for a character and it was supposed to make fun of millennials, but we thought that was stupid too?
Gen Z actually talk like that.
I know you probably joking but as a millennial I kinda hate this take.
Every generation used words that our elders didn’t and every future generation will continue to do so and I support that.
In fact I like to try and learn the new words as it’s cool to know what’s happening. Don’t use them though else the kids will cringe.
Do use them though, because it makes the kids cringe
I would but I’m not allowed within 50 feet of child. You beat one child and you’re labelled for life.
On god, you cappin' rn fr
"Honestly, you are lying right now for real"
A hater gets caught lackin' in the crib and you think that's my vibe
"Someone who doesn't like me gets caught without enough to defend themselves in the house, and you think that's what I'm about/like"
Deadass, I'm bussin'.
"...in all seriousness, I'm great/fantastic/amazing."
Is it cap because of capslock or what is the origin?
It's believed to have been a part of black American slang for decades, possibly from the term "high-capping" which essentially means bragging. Rapper E-40 used the term in his 1995 song "Da Bumble".
Thanks for the explanation and link!
