I just had an american kid tell me it was a specifically Cali slang term to call a piece a 'Llama'. I don't think that's necessarily so...but idk...maybe.
With references, a lot are very region specific... every rapper in California has written at least one Mac Dre punchline or reference.

The only weird slang I see Brits use is my friends in real life with the rhyming slang shit.

southern california has a lot of slang of its own but when it comes to the "i don't know wtf this man just said" kind of slang, thats bay area/oakland kind of shit

Lol Co-sign RULE

Also though, a point i made to phroxen.. There's only about 10 active UK members on here, we can't use any British slang because of the 10000s of Americans so we don't, so we kind of have to learn 'American' so to speak.

A lot of the time i don't know wtf somebody is talking about... When it comes to TV shows, sports, celebrities that are specific to America. I try not to vote if i really don't have a clue.

But if an American didn't understand a British verse... the majority of you would vote against the Brit for not understanding, without a second thought.

Been the same for years, in a way it's fair i guess...

After watching the Don't Flop battles, and having English friends ... I understand a lot more of the weird shit then I used to.
I think it's the same thing for Brits watching American battles like GT or Americanized battles like KOTD.....
