African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) slang, popularised in hip-hop and urban communities in the late 1990s–2000s. A superlative of approval, meaning something is outstanding, elite, or the absolute best — equivalent to 'the bomb' or 'the GOAT.' Often used after a successful stunt, song, or play.
