Yes... people in NY would say "Clout".... but not because it was slang . .
Just because it was a word you could use from the dictionary.
When it became slang, "clout chasing "... people acting like they invented a word:russ:

Most out of towners heard biggie say on a song before...

I just hate ppl using NY slang...
And using it all wrong.
Now it becomes their shyt smh:snoop:
Clout been used in hip hop for a while....NY is the originator though....Speak Ya Clout by Gangstarr is still my shyt....

smh @ nikkas tryna claim "savage" and "clout". Clout is actually old cac slang. Everybody been saying savage. :mjlol:
It's not slang at all, it's a legitimate word :mindblown:


This is as bad as when some dumbass on here tried to claim "finesse" was always slang earlier this year or last year....it was probably one of yall in here :scust:

Not for sure if it started in Chicago, but saying “she’ll go” or “she going” was at the latest being said in the 90s when I was a kid.

Most of the current slang in general is either from the NY or the South :yeshrug: Some of y'all got confused with being originators cause of transplants.

Clout is also used as slang though....yes it's a legitimate word in the dictionary but in hip hop and on the streets it is used a little differently....go and look the word up and you will see that clout also means a piece of cloth or leather or a blow especially with the hand.....

No one's uses NY slang like that anymore...in the 90's was the peak but West Coast slang and Southern slang I will say are now more heavily used....just my take as I'm older and frequented both coast alot....
