Get the Choose Up mug.1) In street culture influenced by Chicago gang culture and Drill Music, "we up" is an oblique reference to the score.

2) To be "up" also means to be solvent, to have drugs to sell, and to be powerful, on point, in the sense of "on top." This wider usage is probably because the direction "up" usually corresponds with positivity, happiness, and thought in our culture, according to George Lakoff.
