A hot, hot "Shawty" or something like that?


I had to go to the "Urban Dictionary" for this. When I am in the car listening to my tween's music and I hear what sounds like "Shawty" in all these songs I need to know what it means. But first, I had to find the spelling. I had a hunch it was going to be spelled "Shorty", but that is definitely not how it is being pronounced.


1.shorty

affectionate term for a girlfriend, attractive female or concubine.

Yo shorty, it's your birthday!

2. shorty
Originally used to mean a young man, new to the game. By new to the game, I don't mean he just meant a rapper, but he just started selling crack, just started rapping, whatever, but even simpler it was a term used to mean just a person much younger than you.

Now, commercial rappers have turned the meaning upside down to mean a 'fine female', apparently.

"shorty's laugh was cold blooded as he spoke so foul,
Only twelve trying to tell me that he liked my style"
-NaS, 1994

3. shorty
1. Your girlfriend or girl that you date or go out with.
2. One of your closest friends, friend that you hang out with a lot.
3. An attractive girl that you want to meet.

1. "I love you Shorty."
2. "Hey Shorty, let's go see a movie."
3. "Dude, check out that Shorty over there."

4. shorty:
1. A cute girl or female
2. Your boo

"Only thing that keep me up when im feelin' down I dont know 'bout you but I keep mine around cuz I done look I done search and its hard to find anotha shorty like miiiiine..." Bow Wow and Chris Brown
