front on

to rob, bully, or verb someone. No matter what the case, frontin on somebody always has something to do with confronting them in some way. It comes from the word front, which means acting like something you aren't. So "fronting on" somebody is basically trying to make yourself look greater than you really are at the expense of that other person.

C.L. untouchable, with the clip full / Impossibly, the posse can't front on me!

a front

When someone pretends or fakes a response. A pretense at not caring.

It seems like John isn't pissed that his girlfriend went to Mexico without him.

Response:
Nah, it's a front. He's pissed.

fronting

A facade. Appearing one way, but really acting another. Misrepresnting yourself.

Ellen, the same one from Walnut Creek, best not front when she tells me she has something for me!

fronting

Trying to pass yourself off as something you are not.

Sometimes mistakenly seen as an aspect of "fake it until you make it". The fronter, however, will never be able to "make it".

Youlanda talked like a manager, but anyone could easily see that she was fronting, and was actually a hopeless and total incompetent.

front

The act of acting like you are somebody else.

To think and act like you are a badass when you are not.

To get in somebody's face.

"Don't front motherfucker!"
