I am looking for the meanings and the origin of the word macdaddy as used in urban street talk.
This from Urban Dictionary:
"Mac Daddy" or Mack Daddy, is a term used to describe a man with an unusual power over women, and is derived from the French and later Louisiana Creole patois term "maqereau", which means "pimp". Adding "daddy" makes it mean "top pimp".
Not to be confused with Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
Ah! That's why: " Mackie Messer" AKA "Mack the Knife".
