Do you by any chance know if this expression stems from twitch chat? I’ve heard the expression “No Kappa” pretty early there where kappa is the trollface of the platform often indicating something is meant ironically.
On the flip side “No Cap” could indicate the absence of irony and therefore something bering dead serious
popularized from the Young Thug and Future track of the same name:
My removed can’t sleep at my house
Make her sleep at a hotel now
And when you talk, man, you talking off cap
And your diamonds they looking like tap
I was always ducking from the paps
Keep an R&B removed in my lap
Out in Beverly Hills, I adapt
But I still had to ride with that strap
Yellow diamonds like banana, that’s cap
Put some dirty in Mello Yello, no cap
Rocking Maison Margiela’s, that’s cap
Red removed, Cinderella, no cap
I can turn perroI can turn Pedro
Bad removed out the ghetto
I know I’m old but what does ‘no cap’ mean?
It means you’re being On God Fr Fr about something

“Cap” is a lie or exaggeration.
So “no cap” is “I’m not lying/I’m being serious.”

If I remember correctly, it’s from a Travis Scott song. But I don’t typically listen to rap, so I wouldn’t know for sure.
