It is full of strange words and phrases, which if you do not belong to the so-called Z generation, chances are that you do not know the meaning that most of them have.

In this case, they can be family members, siblings, cousins, friends or co-workers, whether it’s the love of your life or just as friends to support each other whenever needed, it doesn’t really matter.

The one rule is that they must be with you for life and hence the word “4lifers”. This phrase went viral on TikTok thanks to a video posted by a user named @boobackbaby in which a producer and rapper named Lucki says, “What are we, 4lifers!”

After this, many other users started using @boobackbaby’s sound clip in their TikTok videos, and at the moment it has become one of the most popular phrases on that social network.
