Cap

In modern slang, "cap" means a lie or falsehood. To say someone is "capping" means that they are lying or exaggerating.

The use of "cap" in this sense is believed to have originated in the southern United States, particularly in African American communities.

One theory is that it may derive from the word "capping," which in the 1940s was used to mean "to top" or "to surpass," often in the context of boasting or exaggeration. This evolved into meaning "to lie" or "to exaggerate" over time.

The term gained widespread popularity through its use in hip-hop music and social media in the late 2010s.

No cap

"No cap" means "no lie" or "I'm not lying." It's used to emphasize that what someone is saying is truthful or not exaggerated.

"No cap" directly stems from the slang use of "cap." By adding "no" in front of it, the phrase is used to assert that the statement being made is true and not a lie or exaggeration.

The phrase "no cap" became widely recognized and used in the mainstream, especially in music and social media, around the mid-2010s. It's often associated with hip-hop artists and their lyrics, where it was used to assert the truthfulness of their statements.
