Something that is really good, authentic, or high quality. In Chicano slang, this is one of the most positive words you can use, like saying something is legit and worthy of respect. It can also be used to confirm something with conviction, similar to saying "for sure" or "solid." Deeply rooted in Chicano barrio culture across the US and northern Mexico.
