Is this slang offensive or not, what does exactly mean ?

I came across it in very different contexts, But every time had different meaning . So that'd be great it somebody give me a clue . I'm not looking for its definition in Dictionaries . I wanna know how it 's used in the U.S these days


Baller : 

1) very "cool" or stylish.   or

2) a person who is who is flashy with their money. Someone who has lots of money and enjoys showing it off in front of others buy buying expensive and extravagant things such as cars, clothes, jewelry, etc.


Thank you

The first time I ever heard the term "baller" was in the music video of;  "Skee-lo - I wish". I always thought it originated from the NBA world, because there's a predominant scene of basketball play in the video.

First of all, it´s a word I have heard before, but actually would not understand off the top of my head,, because it`s very new slang. It apparently does refer to someone rolling in money, like sports starts and so on.

You have it right. It's not offensive. It is a person who is crushing it or a big wig or a person who has a lot of money and is super trendy and cool. A person, man or woman, or a thing can be baller or a baller. You can say "You're such a baller" or even "You're a bad..ss baller" :D

I heard this word in a song and I was wondering about its meaning too.

Here's a quote:

"I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars and spend it on girls and shoes."
