I know there are others, but I'm having a hard time coning up with others off the top of my head.

I looked up this article and found more: https://madamenoire.com/235429/say-dat-10-black-words-that-went-mainstream/

my point being everything we do is co'opted.

EVERYTHING.

hear Chris Mathews use them at 7PM on a Tuesday, like my bad. He probably wouldn't say that something is wack, though.

>He probably wouldn't say that something is wack, though.

give it time.

I saw some newscasters tryna do the 'shoot' dance (blockboy JB, 'Look Alive'), and that was on some local station, not even L.A./NYC market-type.

That started with us, and not even that long ago, like in the last 4 years (since Ferguson).

If it’s done by black people that’s our vernacular and there’s an argument to be made that we’re not really all that mainstream
If it’s done by white folks, then they should be treated as immediately suspect for attempting to relate with words they don’t have a relation to
So being used by the mainstream wouldn’t mean that they’ve become mainstreamed

ironically or to poke fun at people. To the point where I'm not sure it was ever understood to be a sincere term.

some shit about missing customer expectations and missing revenue in an interview (can't remember if it was something to investors or some generic bloomberg interview shit) and used the term 'My bad'.

I was blown away. Typing it out it reminds me of Elon Musk smoking a blunt for Joe Rogan's podcast. At least earlier in hip-hop the vultures had to have some kind of connection to co-op slang.

You see this wave happening in alot of black queer circles too; ive seen outright maga type racists and homophobes use 'yas queen' as a compliment, LOL.

thing.

Tamar Braxton had alot to do with that.

Werk
Yaaaas
Oooowwww
Shade
Hun-ty

Those are the ones that jump out at me, just from watching Tamar over the years.

because I remember when it exclusively meant drunk/high. I still think of it that way and have had to adjust.

the constant misuse of "fuckboy."

I feel like it's a word that cis-hetero (?) male prolly shouldn't be using.

like when white ppl say nxgga.

If I'm turned off by this does that mean I'm a fuckboy?

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

"fuckboy" to "fuccbwoi" or whatever. Does it mean something else when it's spelled like that?

it means whatever said basic white girl intends it to mean i guess

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

I'll just cut to the chase.

I thought that's what it meant, and that by rappers using it they were 'othering' and group that had already been 'othered'

I wanna say HotThyng/SoWhat broke it down a long time ago BUT I COULD BE WRONG AND I INTENDED NO OFFENSE

"...Whateva, man..." (c) Redman

i remember the two being interchangeable in southern rap, old outkast, goodie mob, lil jon, all that

and if im not mistaken it was the same thing as callin somebody gay
so it would mean that it went from fuck nigga to fuck boy to fuccboi used by white girls to refer to guys who don't text back lol

I don't care that white people use it. I care that white people who haven't seen Friday use it. Seriously, that film's a comedy classic at this point.

I thought it was overused back by us in the 90's, but once it hit mainstream I tend to cringe everytime I hear it.

Y'all buy those labels, I was born supreme

The most recent one I've heard in real life is 'slapping', and of course it was used wrong smh.

The list is long as hell though.

because the term sounded funny and genuine coming from her. But 90% of the people that used it afterwards were just trying too hard.

after Cardi B used it. They were right.

'Some white people say it too' doesn't mean it's mainstream. Mainstream is what white people with no black friends say. Tammy Sue ain't saying 'woke.'
