Example: 2013 -- Grand Theft Auto V (a video game):
- "FRANKLIN: Look, dog, this time we legit, homie. This honest work. It's gonna end up with us coming up in the world. / LAMAR: Oh, really? That's a nice change from fools comin' up on us. / FRANKLIN: That's trill, homie. / LAMAR: You damn straight that's trill, partner, but it's a shame I don't believe it. You wanna drop some notes on that shit, I'll give you the odds, homie."
Don't like Urban Dictionary? Here is a more reputable source for this sense of "trill" which seems to have been published in 2018: https://www.dictionary.com/e/slang/trill/ (also says that it is a blend of "true" and "real"). --User123o987name (talk) 12:27, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
