Got it! “No cap” is slang that means “no lie” or “for real.” It is used to emphasize the truthfulness or sincerity of a statement.

In more detail, “no cap” originated from hip-hop culture and is commonly used in African American Vernacular English (AAVE). The phrase “cap” here refers to the slang term for a lie or exaggeration. When someone says “no cap,” they are assuring others that what they are saying is genuine and not a falsehood or exaggeration.

Example 1: “My new car is the fastest, no cap!” (Meaning: I’m being honest, my new car is genuinely the fastest.)

Example 2: “That movie was amazing, no cap!” (Meaning: I’m not lying, the movie was genuinely fantastic.)

Remember, “no cap” is used to emphasize the truthfulness of a statement and can be used in various contexts to indicate genuine sincerity or honesty.
