**Official** knowledge of slang origin Thread**

[Hankaveli]

Slang Orgin is an Aspect of Rap/Hip-Hop I have always had a great deal of interest in, So I feel I have a pretty good knowledge on the subject, and wanted to help others.

At the same time there are some that have troubled me for a long time and would love to solve them.

I will get the ball rolling, post any that you feel are not Obvious or ask questions for one's you ponder.

1) "Fuck the Police and a 502"-NWA

Many may not know but "502" is in refrance to the old California code for DUI.

2) The Orgin of "Gat"(as in gun) came from Eazy-Z, who actully owned a Gatling gun,

Question:

What is the Orgin of "Wolf Tickets"(See;The Click-Game Related-"Wolf Tickets")?

well that is more of a general Slang term, But it basicaly means you don't own shit, or you are simply broke.

back before indoor plumbing people would piss in pot's or Bed pan's overnight so they would not have to go out.

if you don't got somewhere to piss, damn you hard up! lol

not sure of the exact Orgin myself but it just means a Perfect 10, a Dime=10 cents.

I was thinkin' they said "Fuck tha police and a 5-0, too", but that shit makes more sense.

 

[dedbrd]

i had figured out what dime meant, i was just sayin it took me a while to figure it out

 

[Farzin]

[Hankaveli]

There was an old TV Show called "Hawaia 5-0" about Police.
So in NY/NJ look out men began to ye'll "5-O" to let the dealers know the cops where coming.

What's a dub?

like

"Got an Astin Martin leanin' on dubs"

And,

this line (Game) confused me. It's not an exact quote.

"Mics (? spelling?), Dubs, and 6-4's nigga"

I think I know what 6-4's (impala?) are, but...the rest. Dunno.
