Could you guys be more real! What is the meaning of this sentence? "Could you guys be more real!" When and how to use it?

It appears to be talking about how honest or genuine people are. Perhaps they are asking for people to be more honest. It might also be saying the opposite - that they are 100% honest and genuine. It depends on the context - is it said like a complaint, or a compliment?

It sounds like they are trying to say something like, "You guys are really genuine!" Have a look at expressions like, "Keep it real."

It's like when someone is not taking a conversation serious or are trying to be funny and you don't want them to be. For example: You: I need to make more money, do you have any suggestions? Me: Grow a money tree in your yard! (obviously money trees are not real, this is me joking) You: Can you be more real! I've only heard it in that situation or when someone is complaining when you say something wrong that has a social or political impact. In that case being real is like being "woke", it means you know better than to say certain things or make certain mistakes. For example: Me: Racism is not a real problem in the US.' You: Can you be more real! (because it is a problem and you did not expect me to say something so stupid.) However if you can give context that would help.

I use this quite frequently! I like it because you are asking a person if the thing that they are saying is really true.When you ask this question, you are very surprised and can't believe what you are hearing.
