A “Broham” is the ebonic pronunciation of Brougham. A Broham is consistently attributed to the large rear wheel drive Cadillac Fleetwoods of the 1970s and 80s. The word Broham is commonly used within the African American community regarding people who drive these Caddy “Wips” , “Ghetto Cruisers”, or “Hoopties”. Most Urban youths across the country dream of one day owning a Broham.

A term of false endearment used between a 'cool' guy to a less 'cool' guy to coerce him to do a menial task for him such as vacuuming, moving a car, triple homicide et al, in the pretense that the cool guy may be the less cool guy's friend as a result of the completed task.

Former producer Mike Stephen of the Nick Digilio show on WGN radio in Chicago.
"Now, about that name “Broham”. The short story is that Nick went to grade school with a big bully who called everyone “broham”. Years later, they ran into one another on the Ravenswood el. The bully was standing on the platform yelling, “Open the door, Broham!” Nick saw the bully and the bully saw Nick. They hugged on the el. I’m serious.

I’m no bully, but since the Sunday night show is the evening “zoo”, I was in need of a nickname and was jealous of The Count's. Hence, I was bestowed the title of Broham." -Mike Stephen
