yellow bus
n.— «It’s different. It has more meaning because it’s coming out of the Bay Area, where we all come from. Plus, the beats and style are a lot different from anything else I’ve heard. It brings about new words, like “goin’ dumb’”yellow bus” and “yaddaskeeton.” Anything crazy—that’s what hyphy’s all about.» —“Gettin’ hyphy with it” by Makala Keys Argus-Courier (Petaluma, California) Aug. 16, 2006.
