Ahhh! History does repeat itself....
Back in the 60's an 70's, we referred to "ballin" the same way todays people call it "sleeping with"...They both mean the same thing, but when you think of it, at least there are "two balls" involved in "ballin'".... "Sleeping With" makes no sense at all !!!! When I think of THAT ... I think of snoring, and hogging the blankets! P.S. Thats probably what Jim Jones is referring to!

Because of rapper Jim Jones. he has created this whole ballin phonomenon that is sweeping the whole nation. Besides the song comes on the hip-hop stations so many times.

To be honest, I think "ballin'" is just another word of the moment. Just like when everyone started saying "Awesome", "bogus" and way back in the 60's, people started with "groovy". It's all a part of how society is.

Because dear, of rapper Jim Jone's popular song "We fly high" where he chants the word "ballin" very charismatically! And alot of ppl would also like to think they're "ballin".

It means like,
You have a lot of money.
If youre ballin, you have a ton of money.
If you don't know somthing, you can always go to www.urbandictionary.com and type in the word, and it will give you a definition of it, created by everyday people. You could even define a word. ;D
