Definition

British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen's iconic character Ali G, a wannabe gangster from Staines who popularized mock-urban slang like "booyakasha" and "respekt." The character satirized both hip-hop culture and British suburban youth trying way too hard to be street. A cultural phenomenon of the early 2000s that made "innit" mainstream.

Example Usage

My roommate keeps doing his AliG impression at parties and wondering why nobody laughs anymore—dude, it's been 20 years.
