backpacker
 n.— «I have no problem at all with mainstream HipHop. No wait, let me rephrase this, I have no problem with dope mainstream HipHop.…Ofcourse, I can’t speak for everyone on this newsgroup, or for every “backpacker,” but that’s my viewpoint. I do think underground jockers exist.» —“Re: It seems (the real) Hip-Hip (Rap) will die” by WUZ! TFL Usenet: alt.rap Mar. 19, 1999. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
