blow up

When someone blows you up it means they let many others know about something you're doing, or what you have that you don't want others to know. A place can get blown up as well, for example if you know a chill spot where a selected few come to hangout, it could get blown up if a lot of people find out that it's cop free and chill.

"Can I have a cigarette?"
"I don't have any, ask David though"
