Something people, especially black people say instead of bro, mainly when they say in a exasperated tone.

It is a word commonly used to refer to a friend mostly towards a male, or an expression towards an illogical or horrendous situation, question, sentence, etc., it's use started around the early 20th century originating from the English word brother, used often by African American's slowly turning into 'brer' and 'brah' and now as 'bruh'.
E.g.,
Tommy: My bicycle was stolen so I had to take the subway and arrived late for class.
Charlie: Bruh.

The term BRUH is a shortened version of “brotha”—- note that it ends with an “a”. Brotha is the African American variation of brother - so when brotha is shortened it becomes bruh.
Wassup bruh - what’s crackin’ tonight..
