A Nigerian Prince who knows just how precious stability and comfort are and he doesn't take life for granted. Resourceful and very knowledgeable. Also a handyman, able to fix anything around the house. He has a gang of siblings who all look alike. Always surrounds himself with friends and family. He plays arcade games with his bestie Abdi, he teases Abdi all the time because he looks like a feebleminded Jamaican pot head. They're really funny together and their humor brightens anyone's day. Kunta is a true friend who is going places.

The stereotypical term pasted on to extremely intelligent college kids. A kunta: a.) Is lazy b.) Does better in life regardless of laziness c.) Rarely attends classes but d.) Still beats the curve. Being a Kunta elevates your social status to a near aristocracy. Everybody around envies how easily you handle life, thus turning the term "Kunta" to a derogatory term to everybody except the kunta him/herself. The following are artistic/intellectual attributes applicable to a kunta: 1.) Mean guitar skills 2.) Excessive knowledge of computers and their workings 3.) Unfathomable communication skills and 4.) Natural talent for any competitive activity in existence.
