The phrase "no cap" originated from African American Vernacular English (AAVE) and became widely popularized by Generation Z. It is used to indicate that someone is telling the truth or not lying. The term "cap" itself, meaning to lie or exaggerate, has been around for a while and was used in rap and hip-hop culture before gaining broader mainstream popularity through social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok, where Gen Z has a significant presence.
