TOP DEFINITION
Calling someone 'Boss' (or in Shona, pfesi meaning big man) on the street is acknowledging their high-roller status. In Zim hustle culture, if guys in the street call you Boss, it implies you're known to tip or spend.
"Maboss vanouya kuclub nemota hombe – vanotozivikanwa, zvinzi ndiwo vane mari yacho. (Meaning: The 'boss' guys come to the club in big cars – they are well known, it's said they are the ones with money.)"
