Get the you know the score mug.The phrase “bop” in this sense is New York-based slang that came out of Black and brown queer communities, especially from the ballroom scene, the hood girlies, and NYC’s underground culture.
• The word “bop” originally meant like a lil’ walk, a lil’ strut — something with sauce. Like “that girl got a bop when she walk.”
• Over time, it morphed into meaning your style, pattern, routine, way of being — especially among gay men, fem boys, and trans girls in NYC. It became a quick, flexible word to describe vibe+reputation+routine all in one.
Think Harlem, Bronx, and Brooklyn. Think girls who walk into a room and don’t have to explain themselves. You just know their bop.
“Bop” refers to someone’s vibe, energy, style, or behavioral pattern.
It’s how someone moves, acts, or carries themselves — their aura. It’s like saying “You know how I do.” or “That’s how I move.”

Get the do you know da wae mug.you know wassup with me. You know how i get! You know my aura! "You know the vibes" is a smooth, laid-back catchphrase that signals you're in tune with a certain energy—whether it's success, swagger, authenticity, or good times. It implies confidence, connection, and that the moment or message speaks for itself. It’s like saying, “You get it. No need to explain.”
