# Jittleyang

Jittleyang / Fuhuhluhtoogan are two Baltimore slang terms coined by rapper Bippleyipsnipp in his 2021 song 'City Girls,' later picked up on TikTok through 2023 and 2024 bait videos[1]. By April 2024, creators were posting Slow Fade-In edits captioned 'How it feels being a jittleyang in a world full of fuhuhlatoogans'[8].

## Origin
Richard Webster, a Baltimore barber and rapper performing as Bippleyipsnipp, started using the terms on his Instagram and in his music around 2021[5]. On March 2, 2021, the YouTube channel MrBUHDUGGETZ DUGGETZ posted the music video for 'City girls actupuhluhgoot remixuhten,' which featured both words[1]. A copyright strike on the beat forced the channel to cut the song itself, leaving only intro and outro clips, and a full-length repost went up on November 20, 2023[2]. Separately, X user @KURRRUPTSHON tweeted 'jikkuhlang' on February 11, 2021, three weeks before the YouTube video appeared, though the connection to Webster is unconfirmed[9].

On March 26, 2022, Webster self-published Jikkuhlang the Dictionary via Amazon[4]. The book notably does not define 'jittleyang' or 'fuhuhluhtoogan' directly, instead listing adjacent terms. 'Jikkal' is given as 'an attention grabber,' while 'fuckalyoot' and 'fuckalyew' both describe good intercourse[5].

- **Platform:** YouTube (song) / TikTok (viral spread)
- **Creator:** Richard Webster (Bippleyipsnipp)
- **Date:** 2021

## Overview
The two words function as a nonsensical identity question with no fixed meaning. TikTok users ask friends, parents, or strangers which of the two they are, and the comedy relies on the fact that nobody can define either term. Bippleyipsnipp himself did not define 'jittleyang' in his own 2022 slang book, instead providing a related word, 'jikkal,' meaning 'an attention grabber,' with the suffix '-yang' working as nonsensical emphasis[4].

Posts typically fall into two camps. Early 2021 and 2022 TikToks baited viewers with fake definition reveals, like @itsholyjay's August 2021 video that teases a meaning then provides none[6]. After the January 2024 explosion, creators switched to a self-identification format, with @temucart3097's April 2024 Slow Fade-In reading 'How it feels being a jittleyang in a world full of fuhuhlatoogans'[8]. Spelling varies freely across posts: jikkuhlang, jittleyang, fuhuhlatoogan, and fuhuhluhtoogan are all accepted[5].

## How to Use
A typical post poses the two words against each other as a binary identity question, most commonly 'Are you a jittleyang or a fuhuhluhtoogan?' asked of a parent, teacher, or unsuspecting bystander. Creators often lean into the Slow Fade-In TikTok format with self-identification captions, as in @temucart3097's April 2024 video claiming jittleyang status in a world of fuhuhlatoogans[8]. Earlier 2021-2022 posts used a bait structure, promising to reveal what the words mean and then giving nothing[6].
