The Story Of Thugnificent

The Boondocks stay dropping science son. Monday's episode entitled Thugnificent was a work of a master who is far beyond our mental plain.

The episode opened up with a fictional ganster rapper showing a MTV reporter the dirt poor environment that he came from.

But through his gift of rap he signs a million dollar deal and moves to the mostly white suburbs of Westwood. Everyone likes him execpt his black neighbor next door granddad.

Granddad files a complaint because of a loud party and people parking on his lawn. And, in retaliation Thugnificent make a song called you just made cause you old.

Unbelievably youg people start beating up old people over the beef. Eventually they settle their differences and shake hands for the camera.

Arron McGrudder forces everyone to sit back and take a look at themselves. He magnifies how the rich don't really care about anything except their money. And how intellectual blacks are dismissed because of the images of blacks, mostly rappers, pimps, and gangsters, whites are exposed to.

The most memorable sceene in the episode was when Thugnificent met Huey and congradulated him for reading. Huey did not reply thank you but instead asked did you just congradulate me for reading?

If being intelligent, and having ambition is still seen as being an attempt for a black man to assimilate to white. We still have a long way to go.

One Love, One Nation, One World.
