hip

Cooler than cool, the pinnacle of what is "it". Beyond all trends and conventional coolness. Not to be mistaken for "deck".

"Stay away from the tacky velvet-rope MTV frat-boy clubs on the beach. Check out this party downtown instead, it's gonna be hip."

Hip

An outdated word that, when used to describe oneself, means the opposite of what its user assumes its meaning to be. Mostly used by older people in an attempt to be accepted by younger generations. Often used in conjunction with urban slang used in the wrong context

"Hey guys, YEET! What? That's not how it's used? Don't worry, I'm hip guys. I'm down with the millennials' lingo."

hip

Informed, up to date, fashionable, contemporary, relevant. Being modern in dress, attitude and interests. From "hepi," meaning "well-informed" from the West African language of Wolof.

The word was probably introduced to America by slaves imported from West Africa, and was still in use in 1930's era black speech. Hip/hep probably entered the mainstream American lexicon by way of the Beatnik subculture, who believed in racial integration, listened to black music and used words borrowed from black speech.

1930s: Are you hip to the jive?
1950s: He's one hep cat.
1990s-2000s: They are terminally hip.
