Evolution of the Word Boujee

Boujee comes from the French word "bourgeois" for the middle class. It was previously rich or materialistic. In hip-hop culture, it was a good way to describe mixed luxury with road styles. The word became super popular after Migos' songs Poor and Bucky. Now it means some trendy, stylish, or fancy - whether it's fashion, food, or lifestyle. People use it in a fun way to talk about high-class life, even though they are not rich.
