Biatch you wrong, in the words of Cam, “you wasn’t there” I’m pretty certain this was NY street slang before it was ever put on record. nikka I over pause/no homo to this day on some silly shyt. Me and my nikkas know that we are just being silly and immature and it’s not serious at all. But it’s sort of like an inside joke. Nothing better than being at the office or something and some pause worthy shyt happens and you say pause and it’s like one or two people who get it and everyone else is oblivious.

Of course it's silly and immature. That much is already obvious.

But you have to understand: from the outside looking in, if you and your boys are amused by the chance of gay or borderline gay, it makes y'all look suspect.

Hip hop has always been anti gay for the most part and this slang, even though mostly in jest, is an ecpxample of it. But hip hop has also always been the voice of the streets, and in the black community in the US, gayness has always sort of been a larger taboo than it is in most cultures, so slang like pause/no homo is no surprise.

all true.

Your content is decent most of the time but your posting style can be annoying. You post with so much authority, but you not even from here.

I can see your insecurity all the way from the sands of Arabia, breh. Your zipcode can't save you :umad:

It’s like nikkas from the US trying to argue with a London breh about the intricate history of grime or something. For example, when Cam came out with Purple Haze. At that time the weed strain Purple Haze was really popping. It was like the most popular shyt. nikkas had $10 sacks of the shyt in NY which was almost unheard of at the time. And I’m not even from NY, but I used to go all the time to cop Purple Haze lol. They had the bubble gum strain popping heavy in NY at the time too. My point is, only a nikka from the states would know some small and subtle intricate shyt like this

:laff:

Yet here you are, speaking on some NY shyt. What's the difference between me speaking on something I'm not from, you fukkin clown?

And there's something called the Internet. Ever heard of it? It makes the world smaller by connecting billions of people worldwide. That means that when I was living with project nikkas back in 2004 and one of them was banging Purple Haze while dealing, he might've told me some shyt like that. And that $10 sacks tidbit is irrelevant, especially in 2018.

Got any more idiotic statements to make or are you just gonna continue the usual run-up-in-SirBiatch-threads-and-shytpost shtick? :russell:

Explains a lot from when I knew him... Breh still a p*ssy virgin in his 30's... Ask him about women.

When I met him Missy Elliot was his fav rapper... then Lil B, Asap Rocky, Drake. That list moist as fukk
Since you knew him in real life Iv noticed He always skims your posts, or maybe he just has you on ignore, either way I don’t think Iv ever seen him respond properly to any of your posts :jbhmm:

It's used 90% the wrong times because it's wanna be cool people overcompensating. In the 10% of times it's used "appropriately", the shyt you said was gay AF regardless :scust:

Not since I exposed him and asked him for a fade.

He pretended not to know who I am then put me on ignore :mjlol:

First off, who is your fakkit ass talking too? I replied to your stupid ass thread with a respectful post and you come back calling nikkas fukking clowns, insinuating nikkas might be gay and shyt.

No, I’m not from NY. I’ve been more times than I can count. I’ve spent summers up there. I got fam in the Bronx. I’ve fukked bytches up there. Is your fakkit ass being so dense that you wanna play like not being from somewhere bars you from going?


And here your fakkit ass is talking about the internet. This thread is about some NY slang that likely started in the fukking 90’s. As much as it hurts your soul, you could never have the knowledge a hip hop head that grew up in the inner city of a major US city has. We saw shyt in action. Real time reactions to shyt. You a fukking spectator and a late one at that. So unless we talking about some post internet era shyt, you almost never know what the fukk you talking about. It’s like a nikka on the other side of the world who studied NBA history arguing with a nikka who actually played in the NBA

And what the fukk are you talking about living with project nikkas? The fukk do that even mean? Were you living in the projects, or just staying with some nikkas who wasn’t soft like you? And why wasn’t you bagging up nothing? You living with some nikkas and they serving, and what the fukk is you doing?

That’s sums up your whole damn Coli life dog. Somebody told you something. You arguing with nikkas who was there. A nikka never had to tell me nothing bout this hip hop shyt

If I'm happy to see my nikka, I'll tell him I'm happy to see him.

:yeshrug:

Pause is just a silly term to me, most of the time I hear it said after something purposely wild or when it wouldn't be taken "gay" anyway. Not sure if it's WOAT but NY can keep that.
