Boujee comes from bourgeois, a French word for middle class. It originally meant wealthy or materialistic. In hip-hop culture, boujee means a high-class lifestyle, a mix of luxury and street. Boujee got popular with the song Bad and Boujee by Migos. Now it means fancy, trendy, or elite, whether it’s fashion, food, or lifestyle, often with a playful or aspirational tone.
