Urban Language

An informal language made up of current phrases or words that are used in place of standard terms for added emphasis, humor or other effects.

"the lingo used by peeps to talk about mad shiz and holla at their homies." can you figure out what's the meaning of this sentence? hahaha...

Well,for me it's quite fun to learn and discover the meanings of urban words because I love rap music and sometimes,I found a lyric that using a certain urban words that I have no idea what it is and I have to find the meanings of it..and I think it's similar like we learning English.Whereby,We have to find out the meaning or definition of the word that we doesn't know in the Dictionary.

Learning Proper English and Urban language at the same time is fun..The more we read and the more new infomations we will get =)
and don't get me wrong because Im doing this just for fun and it's usefull for me to understand the meaning of the lyrics.

I know why many people doesn't like rap music because of the rappers talking too fast over the beat and the listener couldn't understand it plus the words used in the lyrics is quite hard to be understood..So they perfer a slower beat. (English songs is better)

Just forget about Indonesian Pop band.it's Boring.
p/s: Booo!!
