Street Talk Dictionary
Where language, fashion, and hip-hop meet. We document the slang that shapes the culture—and show how it lives on our tees, hoodies, and daily expression.
Language × Fashion × Culture
Slang is more than words—it’s a pulse. In hip-hop and urban life, expression shows up three ways:
- In the music: bars, hooks, ad-libs—rhythm that codes meaning.
- In the clothes: what you wear speaks before you do.
- In the language: everyday talk that signals values, crews, and mood.
Street Talk Apparel blends all three—printing authentic phrases on premium blanks so your voice shows before the convo starts.
How This Dictionary Works
- Hubs: Each Hub explains a core slang concept (definition, cultural context, examples).
- Spokes: Each Hub links to its Spokes—variations that carry the same energy with a twist (zodiac, city, sports, etc.).
- Shop: Hub pages connect to product pages so you can wear the language with intent.
This page lists Hubs only. Click a Hub to open its main page; you’ll find all Spokes there.
