Slangtastic: Blix -- Dizzee Rascal Edition
Here we go again folks. Dizzee Rascal returns to school all you lovers of everything international. The London-bred offers up another lesson in British hip hop slang. Take notes.
Slangtastic: Chopped and Screwed -- Bun B Edition
Bun B, a friend of the BoomBox, has taken time out of his busy schedule to give us another lesson in southern hip hop slang. Take notes as Professor Bun B schools us on a term commonly used down in the dirty.
Slangtastic: Trill -- Bun B Edition
Houston's finest -- and realest -- G took some time out of his busy schedule to give us a quick lesson in Southern slang. So, pay attention and take notes friends as Professor Bun B welcomes us into his world.
Slangtastic: Bubbles -- The DL Show Edition
London-bred rapper Dizzee Rascal crossed the pond and stomped into our New York studio to give us a quick lesson in British hip hop slang. Take out your pen and pad and prepare to be enlightened.
Slangtastic: Cornball
Entry: cornballDefinition: Someone you'd categorize as being corny or trite
Synonym: dork, loser
Antonym: stunna
Lyric: "I warned y'all cornballs, I hush puppies/The swans in the pond called my duck ugly" -- Lupe Fiasco, 'I Gotcha'
Before he became a 'Superstar,' Lupe could have easily been mistaken for the astute -- but definitely not cool -- boy next door. I'm sure anyone who called the rapper a cornball is eating his words as we speak.
Slangtastic: Murked
Entry: murked (v.)Definition: To be badly hurt or viciously killed
Synonym: mauled
Lyric: "So you finna get hurt, murked, put 'em in the dirt/Boy, you better catch me first" -- T.I., feat. Busta Rhymes and Alfamega, 'Hurt'
We'd hate to be on T.I.'s bad side after hearing the damage the Atlanta-based rapper claims he can cause. The self-proclaimed "King of the South" isn't into child's play ... can you blame him?
Slangtastic: 'Screw-face'
Entry: screw-face (n.), screw-facin' (v.)Definition: noun -- a mean face, a dirty look;
verb -- to give someone a dirty look
Synonym: ice grill, gawk
Antonym: look away, ignore
Lyric: "It's funny how n----- get to screw-facin' at me/Anyhow they ain't got the heart to get at me" -- 50 Cent, 'Window Shopper'
You'd think the rap star, who was shot nine times in his hometown of South Jamaica, Queens, N.Y., would prefer a dirty look over bullets, but you better not look at the 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'' rapper the wrong way, or else.
Slangtastic: 'Stunna'
Entry: stunna, stunner (n.)Definition: Someone who is on top of their game on a regular basis.
Synonym: balla
Antonym: bum, duck
Lyric: "Well, I'm as fly as a son of a gun, son of a stunner" -- Lil Wayne, 'Bring It Back'
A self-proclaimed "stunna" himself, Wayne learned the art of stuntin' from the 'Five Star Stunna,' better known as Birdman.
Slangtastic: 'Bum'
Entry: bum (n.)Definition: Someone who is considered to be unimportant, lowlife.
Synonym: loser
Antonym: stunna, balla
Lyric: "Bum ass n----, don't even know how to bust a gun ass n----" -- Lil' Kim, 'Notorious K.I.M'
After donning a mink coat over her underwear and fur bathing suits, one shouldn't be surprised to learn the Queen Bee isn't a fan of anyone who's less than fabulous.
