You may well be right; I’m no expert on black slang.
I looked it up on the urban dictionary because I heard Rush refer to Bo Snerdley’s reference to that site. Don’t know if it is accurate or not.
By the way, the urban dictionary has an entry for “keep it on the downlow”:
“In the closet; hiding the fact that you’re gay”
“Bob was afraid he would get caught kissing George, so they had to keep it on the downlow.”
“#downlow#gay#hiding”
