Meaning close-friend or buddy. Derived from homeboy, but also rumored to be a mispronounciation of the French word for 'man' which is "homme" (Sounds like "home", but you know the "e" on the end made someone go "homie").
What's crackin', homie?

The term "homie" was started by Mexican-Americans, most commonly in East Los Angeles, though, of course, the credit givin for the term goes out mostly to African-Americans. The term derrives from Homeboy, and was shortened down to just "Homes" or sometimes spelled "holmes", which is another Mexican-American term, commonly used in California. Rapper Biggy Smalls has used the term homes/Holmes commonly.
Person 1: Whats happenning homie

Contrary to popular belief, it was the Chicanos aka Mexican-American Pachuos of Los Angeles who created words such as Homie, Homeboy, and Homes which were all derived from their slang known as "Calo". However, Blacks adopted it and there's people who still think they created it just like they think they created Lowriders and call California "Cali" when the Pachucos did that.
Pachuco #1: What's happenin homie?
Pachuco #2: Just kickin it homes.
