What's really hood 

Use to call out someone to pick a fight, usually after the person on the receiving end of this statement causes some transgression or perceivable disrespect. Examples of things that would cause someone to say this include someone bumping into you, laughing at you, giving you a dirty look etc.. The implication is that if you're going around disrespecting people, you must be 'hood'/tough or looking for a fight.

It originates from "What's good?" which at the time it was coined was like another way of saying hello. It evolved into a hostile inflection to suggest to someone that something they did caused offense. This then evolved into "What's REALLY good?!" which then was substituted for what's really hood, basically meaning "if there's a problem we can solve this like they do in the hood." Likely the etymology of this phrase has something to do with the phrase "what's poppin'?"

Use "what's really hood" with EXTREME CAUTION.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
