Origin of foe nem
The origins of "foe nem" are unclear, although several sources claim it traces back to Four Corner Hustlers gang slang in Chicago, Illinois. It gained popularity in the late 2010s, especially among Chicago rappers such as Chief Keef and King Vong.
The term gained wider exposure on social sites like X or TikTok. For example, you may see a shared video with the caption "imma play this on repeat for my foe nem." People may also write or say it as "for nem," "4 nem," or "foenem" and use it to refer to other people (non-friends), in general.
