Nah that’s true too. But Chicago people use it in everyday vernacular. I remember them saying it all the time back in 2008-2011 when I was in college.
I was stationed in Illinois from 2004-2008 and they used to say it Chicago all the time.

Everyone would also call each other joe.

So they’re gonna give the biggest (open) homosexual rapper ever credit for slang made international by Chicago brothas?

Right…
They’re not crediting him for the slang, they’re just saying he’s the reason why this shyt has gone in overdrive today is all.

That’s not even the context it’s used in Chicago tho

the way it’s used in the bay is more equivalent to cluck or hype

tweakin is used more generally here
Don’t know what cluck is, but no, it’s not an equivalent to hype, in the bay tweaking is actin a fool/trippin or high/fukked up, tweaker is a dope fiend or unstable person.
