In New York AAVE slang, 'fake' is used as an adverb which, rather strangely, is synonymous with 'seriously', 'really', etc.
The word used in this sense is prone to causing confusion for out-of-towners. For example, a New Yorker might say, 'I'm fake rich', meaning that he is really rich, but most AAVE-speakers outside of NYC would interpret this statement to mean that he is not really rich.

New Yorker: Yo, the girl I been talking to said she fake like me.
Out-of-towner: Fake like you? So, she don't like you?
New Yorker: Nah, I mean she really like me.
Out-of-towner: Y'all New York niggas' lingo mad weird.

Get the Fake mug.An individual who talks behind another persons back while they are not even there to defend themselves. Someone who does not value real friendship or have the balls to say things to someones face.
3 women are friends and 1 moves away to the other side of the country. The other 2 remain friends but pretend to still be friends with the one who moved away. One day the 2 of them are talking trash about the third and accidentally send it to her. When confronted they deny it's about her.....Now that is FAKE!!!!

Get the Fake mug.The real definition of Fake is when someone will secretly pray on your downfall, someone that you tell everything to and the moment y’all fall out they use it against you . The real definition of fake is when someone will tell you that you can’t accomplish something you want to do , Fake is when someone doesn’t bring you up when you’re trying to be great instead they will find a reason to knock you , being fake is when one of your friend will see you do something wrong and make fun of you for it instead of telling you it’s cool . The real definition of fake is when your friends encourage you to do wrong instead of telling you not to do it . That’s the real definition of fake 🐍
