I think it refers to a defiant style pose used in the early days of rap in Buffalo, New York. Arms crossed down by the hips with a 'don't mess with me' facial expression

"Buffalo Stance" was a person. In the 1800's America had the Indian War Campaigns and the African-American Cavalry Troopers fought in them. They were refered to by the Indians as the 'Buffalo soldiers'. At the time some said this was because of their hair others that it was because the Indians respected them for being courageous and determined. In Company F of the 9th U.S. Cavalry their was a Sgt. Emanuel Stance. He was the first African American to be cited for gallantry in the campaign and be awarded the Medal of Honour. Although most people now have never heard of the man his name seems to has evoved into a familiar 'phrase' that refers to black men who show honour/determinaton/courage.
