Attention pop culture linguists: where did "bee-otch" come from?

3. Too Short


He is an old school rapper from Oakland who coined the phrase. He is from way back in the day and toured with NWA and Eazy E...

Snoop Dogg stole the line from him and never game him any credit...

4. I first heard it in 1994
out of the mouth of a rich kid from Cleveland.

7. I agree.
Aside from the general offensiveness of the word, it just comes across as affected, contrived, street-cred wannabe bullshit.

But that's just me.
