I Like it Thug Style


So I've been watching The VH1 Hip Hop Honors... and I've rediscovered how much I love "thugs". Well I'm not sure if thug is the right word to use, but that's the word I'm going to use.

So I'm not sure if it's the swag that fellas from the dirty south have or if it's just that country grammar accent that I love, but there's just something about the TIs and Nelly's of the world. I just love Nelly. I think because I used to have Nelly posters all in my walk in closet all of this just reminds me of middle school. Good times... just chillin watchin music videos in the morning before school.

Kind of like this girl, I am not a hood girl. I am very conservative and reserved and some might even say boojee. When Bow Wow had "Ghetto Girls", I was so sad because I loved him and I loved the song, but I knew I wasn't a ghetto girl... smh. But in my heart of hearts I wanted to be that for LBW.

But what is it about these hood boys that make us love them so much??? I am typically attracted to guys with much more... cleanliness (is the only word i could think of), but there's just somethin about the dirrty south that gets me every time.

Top 10 Favorite Things About Hood Boys
1. (i'll be the last to admit it but) tattoos
2. muscles (and lots of them)
3. that southern accent mixed with bad grammar
4. white tube socks with adidas sandals
5. the swag (gotta love it)
6. the cheap, practical cars (on 22s)
7. the way they can gulp down red kool aid like it's water
8. the way they really love their mama
9. the way they take control and tell you what to do
10. they all seem to know how to rap

  1. TC,
    You are hilarious. I think any relationship with you and a Hood Boy would last about a week. The minute a 'boy' would act a fool & embarrass you in public, you'd be out.

    Nice blog kid, keep it up!

  2. LOL! I know right! It definitely wouldn't work for me in real life for any type of long term relationship, but for some reason watching the Hip Hop Honors made me fall in love with all of the "hoodness". lol

    Thanks Halliday.

  3. Love your favorite things list. I can really relate. They seem to be everything you're not supposed to like, but damn you can't help it!

  4. My thoughts exactly! You know you shouldn't but you just do... maybe that's what makes them so inticing... the "bad boy" image is always appealing. :)
