Just like the word based

It’s for corny edgelords that resonate with the Joker.

It's where I first heard it
Thank you. I guess I'll go back and time stamp it but that's the first place I heard it too... way back in college my high ass was laughin at first like :mjlol: the fukk? Looked up years later and it was every where... then Cody and Liz jumped on it :snoop: but as far as I'm concerned. The credit goes to Erykah Badu




if they don't acknowledge her they're a damn lie :ufdup:

It goes as far back as Leadbelly when he wrote that song about the Scottsboro Boys

But Erykah no doubt kept it relevant.
