00:00 What's up?
00:00 This is Michael Render, Killer Mike.
00:02 (upbeat music)
00:05 Three of my favorite pieces of Georgia slang are
00:07 shawty.
00:09 Because that can mean so many things.
00:11 It could mean y'all saw a pretty girl,
00:12 man was she pretty?
00:14 Shawty.
00:15 It could mean your buddy did something dumb.
00:17 Hey man, did he wreck your car?
00:18 Shawty.
00:19 It could mean you just hit the lottery.
00:21 You hit the lotto?
00:22 Shawty!
00:23 The other one is hell you talkin' 'bout.
00:25 Man, I heard you lost your house.
00:26 Hell you talkin' 'bout?
00:27 Boy, I'm financially stable.
00:29 I'm good, I'm with Greenwood, man.
00:31 It could be a very, very bad thing too.
00:33 Like, you know, people say,
00:34 "Man, I heard your house burnt down, man.
00:36 "I heard your girl threw all your sneakers in the tub,
00:39 "like Lisa left her Lopez and burnt it."
00:42 Hell you talkin' 'bout, shawty?
00:43 My other one is, let me see.
00:45 Clev.
00:47 I think that's an old one we don't use as much,
00:49 but I like, man, I like when Atlanta and Georgia
00:51 kept it clev, man.
00:52 So to me, whether it's outcast music or goodie mob tunes
00:56 or the way you see thug or baby,
00:58 they really keep it clev.
00:59 Future, biggest clev of all time, man.
01:02 Shouts out to all the clevs out there.
01:04 And I just on the fourth one, Jon.
01:06 And that just means to tease someone.
01:07 I know people from D.C. thought they created that,
01:09 but all your grandparents came from the South.
01:12 So we've been jonning a long time.
