This is a CLEAR UP for the world to see!!!!!!!
Ok, there is a word that is has recently surfaced in the urban world. This word is being used loosely like the word friend. People call someone they just met their friend after knowing them for a day or so. Imagine that. But anyway, the word I am referring to is SWAGGER.
A lot of people claim the term SWAGGER TOO freely. With that being done the people who actually have SWAGGER aren't recognized like they should.
The term has been around for quite sometime. I remember hearing it on Jay-Z's first Blueprint album in 2001, and the word was overlooked until now. Let everyone else tell it, EVERYONE HAS SWAGG NOW!!! LMAO! Just like everyone in the world is wealthy, this is CERTAINLY NOT the case.
Webster defines "Swagger" in noun form as:
1 a: an act or instance of swaggering; b: arrogant or conceitedly self-assured behavior; c: ostentatious display or bravado
2: a self-confident outlook : cockiness
Many people think that since they are rockin the newest Antique Jeans, or those fly Nike SB Dunks they have SWAGGER.
HELLO!!!! NEWS FLASH!!!
Swagger is not your clothes or shoes. That is only a small part. You could be wearing the best of clothes but it DOESN'T mean you posess SWAGG. SWAGGER is a way of life. Its the way you walk, talk, work, and play. Your swag determines that first and ever lasting impression when presenting yourself to others.
Swagger is developed in time and for some it is a gift that not all is blessed with. It gives you the ability to draw attention to yourself by doing the slighest of things without any intentions of causing a scene. A true swagger allows you to take fashion risk and feel absolutly confident about what you are doing and can be careless of what other people opinion is. Swagger gives you the ability to start trends instead of following them. Swagger can makes the ugliest person appealing.
Examples:
Kanye West has SWAGGER, he has the world poppin collars and carrying Louis Vuitton bag.
The Big Homie Jay-Z has Swagger, he made having business about yourself cool. HE MARRIED BEYONCE!!!!! And he isnt anything to look at. Enough said.
Andrea 3000 has Swagger, anyone who can wear a Turbin and Shoulder Pads in a mainstream video and be cool at the same time got it.
The Cool Kids has Swagger, they shop at thrift stores and be the freshest people on the block and have other people trying to emulate their style. That's SWAGGER
And as for me.............................................
Swagger isnt my trademark for decoration.
Swagger is often imitated and attempted, but SWAGGER is a gift that is not given to all, but its ok. Its like if everyone was rich who would be the garbage men. Ya Know.
Don't Hate Get Your Swagg Up!
