Because the hip-hop culture is very popular with black people, the gang-slang and lifestyle started to spread in their music around the 2004s ,where they used the term as a normal slang for a lot of money.
Spread and Usage
Guap is used by the black community on social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, and in hip-hop slang and music.
The black community use it on a daily basis because it’s a part of their culture in the USA, which leads them to believe that it makes them unique on the internet and in hip-hop music.
Just like any other slang originating from the black community, it is preserved as their own and is used very sparingly by others.
