How to use the word "hustle" in a cool way ?
I heard a lot of "hustle" in gangsta movies or rap songs, including the latest Disney animation Zoothopia.
The definition of "hustle" in urban dictionary is to make money in a dishonest fashion.
So beside this, how would you use the word of hustle in daily life, I mean in a street way or cool way.
Thanks

Pretty much no one uses that word on the street to act cool... the only time I can think of is if you tell a friend that you are going to hustle someone, either for money or just to show off. Its probably used jokingly if its ever used, not as a way to seem cool

seldom or never at all. (preferably never if you're not native speaker)

The coolest way is to use it as a noun: I am charmed by the hustle and bustle of cosmopolitan London.
There is no need for any decent person to talk like a gangster or a Disney character.

the word has different meanings...but as you asked for informal ones:
1) to sell or obtain sth, often illegally
They survive by hustling on the streets.
2) to act in an aggressive way or with a lot of energy
3) to work as a prostitute
and as for NOUN usage:
busy noisy activity of a lot of people in one place:
We escaped from the hustle and bustle of the city for the weekend
(all from oxford dictionary ^_____^ )
