  It in fact does not. Not sure why you think otherwise.

    Because that’s the definition and it’s not used to mean anything else.

    The prefix “nu-” is an informal term used in British English to indicate a modern or updated version of something. For example, “nu-metal” music is a term that uses the prefix. The word “nu” originated in the 20th century and comes from the word “new”.

    I’d still like to know exactly what it is you thought it meant.

      My brother in christ did you even read the post before commenting? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu_metal

        Whether or not they’re using it pejoratively is immaterial to the fact that it means “new”.

        This is what it is referencing: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu_metal

        Yes and the “Nu” in NuMetal means “New”
