I was more wondering why that word. Like "rizz" came from "charisma" but "drip" doesn't seem to have an origin like that.

I'm getting up there so I'm out of the loop from pretty much anything in the last decade. I only started hearing the drips this year.

Drip appears to be a metaphor: You’re dripping with money, designer clothes, or confidence.

As good an explanation as any. I've never heard it before, but it's weird to hear it with a positive connotation since a person being a drip is not a good thing.

I've also heard drip's origin explained as what happens when you're hot and wearing a lot of "ice"

Drip comes from making a woman wet because you look really good

Please tell me that's not true
