A person who comes from the hood or ghetto environment who is accustomed to that culture but has climbed their way to a new social class. They have a new found idea of culture and class, but because they come from the streets they still have that “hood” upbringing in them. They are classy and well mannered around new people but around people who they are comfortable with they are able to code switch back to their relaxed selves.
She is from the hood, but she grew up to be a very successful woman. She’s boughetto so don’t piss her off.
She bought a mega-mansion in an expensive gated community. She invited us to dinner to show-off her wealth where she served us prawns, oysters and carvier. But she kept cussing and snapping her fingers and shaking her head with an attitude during the meal. I mean she was so boughetto!!
"She thinks she's classy because she drives a new Audi and buys designer bags, but she dresses like a washed-up beauty queen. She's totally boughetto."
