Thug Lifes (TLs)

Thug Lifes (TLs) are Non-African American juveniles -- typically from the middle class -- that attempt to embrace the hip-hop/rap culture by wearing baggy clothing, ERA hats with the sticker still on the bill, Air Force Ones, and large polo shirts with horizontal stripes. Additionally, they fuse their everyday language with Ebonics, in an attempt to sound "ghetto." They also acquire tapered fades, thus emulating their African-American counterparts.

Socially, they attempt to act "hard" even when surrounded by perfectly well-groomed kids. Psychologically, they actually believe that they are either African-American or truly embrace the ghetto life, when the closest they will ever get to that realm is listening to Tupac CDs.

Within the White, Asian, and Latino cultures, these kids are known as wiggas, chiggas, and miggas, respectively.

Thug

Originally a reference to a violent group/cult in India but etymologically anglicized to refer to a brutal criminal in general for most of the latter 19th and 20th century. The word was adopted/co-opted by the American Rap and Hip Hop music scene in the late 20th century generally defining a tough anti-hero with criminal involvement.

Recently the white conservative movement in the U.S.A. has adopted it as a substantive replacement for the vulgar and toxic term "nigger" which is no longer safe for use in most media channels.
