Original Gangster
It may be a slang term/acronym for 'original gangster', but one may require a little more context to establish that.
Reference:
The term original gangster was derived from the gang’s name and initially stood for “we’re the first.” Crips members would use the OG abbreviation as a shorthand when writing which part of the gang they belonged to (e.g., Original Eastside Crip or OG Eastside).

Nadja is correct. In addition, the term has since broadened to stand for “authentic,” “honestly,” “no lie.” I think this may be the sense used here.
