Jea: A Success Story

So I was just looking through some album that came up on my news feed on facebook and there was a picture of some girl i dont even know flashing a gang symbol and the caption was, "Jea." At this moment I realize a great thing. The word jea has been popularized at my school and a hood or ghetto word, and it came to be solely because of Newschoolers. A couple of my friends and I started saying ti cause we saw it on Newschoolers, and soon some of our other friends started saying it and then a couple of their friends and before we knew it the entire football team was saying jea and playing Cam'ron on their warmup CDs. From here on out it spread like wildfire through our school, and now I even hear middle schoolers saying it. I'm slightly stunned witnessing and helping to develop a fad, even as basic as this, and it reminded me of how lingo hits VT months after it starts in the west or wherever. I've gone to Minnesota and heard lingo used there and then three months later it starts catching on somehow in Vermont. So I guess the weakly deduced moral of this story is that NS lingo = good lingo.

 
NS really came up with jea? does that mean planet asia is on hear cause im listening to him an he just said it.
 
i think its because keo or someone gave bj a cd with more gangsta music on it or something. same as why all the football team listens to killa whale by andre, all cause of keo that shady little squirell.
 
yeah it made more sense the way you told it.

it really bothers me when i hear cross country runners say jea though, is that just me? or you too?
 
I think it has more to do with rappers that say it often becoming more popular. It was first popularized on NS around the time of the WSKI 106 trailer. As dipset became more popular, so did the word.
