The term brigga or brigger can be used to refer to any five types of people. These five types of people are:

1. A mixed person who is least 50% of one of the other people

2. A light-skinned or brown-skinned person
3. A Middle Eastern person
4. A Brown-Asian person
5. A Brown-American person

It is derived from the two words brown and nigga/nigger. You may hear from people that instead of brown it is bro, but that is incorrect.

Though this word is light-years from being as severe as nigger/nigga, it still cannot be used by white people, unless they have been given a pass by one of their brigga friends

The only people it can be used by is Black people, Asians, Latinos and people who are at least 50% one of these.

To see an example of it being used in conversation, look below.
Friend 1: Ayy, What's good my brigga
Friend 2: I feel uncomfortable with you using that word
Friend 1: shut up white boy
