I'm Crackalackin'.....how bout' you?
I was hanging out in a hip club last week and overheard two dudes greet each other with this new hip hop word du jour. At first I didn't understand them and asked, and they assured me that all that bling bling shazoozle crap is old and tired and only white folks is using it now and the new cool thing to say "is Crackalackin'"

I'm just trying to stay somewhat hip and thought I'd pass this along so you can get in on the hipness too.

8. crackalackin' has been in use for several years..
it originated in the Yay Area (specifically Hunter's Point). Crackulatin' is a variation of crackalackin'. The proper response when greeted with either is "nathan".

Rest assured, that if you hear it in the club, it ain't the new cool thang.
