What does OG mean in text messages and social media chats?

OG meaning in text is Original Gangster , but the present-day meaning is way more upbeat and relaxed. It's often used to refer to a person who is genuine, wise, or very respected in a specific field. Saying someone is an "OG" in messages is most often a compliment, implying that they have really been around a while or have a solid reputation. The word came into vogue via hip-hop, with rappers such as Ice-T playing a major role in making it a part of the common language and the internet lingo.
