In the sentence "Williams lays on the anti-gang rap." what is the the meaning of "lay on"?

[sugarmags]

When speaking to people in America, if we were to say someone "lays on the anti-gang rap," we would mean he's just saying he's anti-gang. He doesn't mean what he's saying; he's just trying to sound good or just saying what you want to hear, not what he really believes or how he really acts.
