a single word that is shouted, the "b" and "r" are rolled, coming to a crescendo on the "up".
1. a call between rude boys to let each other know where they are, much like howling monkeys screaming.
2. something to shout when you're drunk and want to make a lot of noise.
(shouted out at high volume)

a genre of music found solely in south / east london, uk that has its roots in garage and 2step. it has a distinctive "icy" beat that is kinda eclectic and jumpy, and all the beats are spat over by MCs. beats are usually recycled and spat over by loads of MCs - for example, wiley's "ice rink" beat was spat over by about twenty different underground and mainstream MCs. can also mean cold-hearted, shady, mean, brass, etc.

1. Used in relation to UK Grime music. When somebody (ie the famous Jammer - "The Merkle Man" - of Jahmek the World Productions) jumps onto a riddim and properly merks it.
2. The act of brucking up to someone (-> having beef with them)
