A brotha that has A sweet ass Escalade sittin on twenty fo's but theres 1/4th of a gallon in his tank and he ain't payed a single payment to date.


A brotha that carrys a Louie Vuitton duffle bag with what appears to be stacks of cash in it, but that shit don't got stacks, oh no, that shit is full of all his escalade repo letters, letters from Child services fo late child support checks, his heating bills, his water bills,and his electric bills he ain't been payin in three years because "that shit too expensive cuz".

A brotha that lives in tha projects, eats government cheese, and still lives with his parents that wears the flyest jays, ed hardy,and bling chains.

A person from an urban neighborhood that looks like they have a lot of money, but they are living far beyond their means.

A fairly expensive item or items that, when judged against the lifestyle and other possessions of the owner, stands out and makes little to no sense.

Someone who buys expensive clothes, cars, and eats out at expensive resteraunts, but returns home to a shack in the hood. They usually are in debt up to their ears, and they keep trying to live the affluent lifestyle untill the repo man comes and tows their car.
Most of the people who live the hoodrich lifestyle are black, and the hoodrich car of choice is a Caddilac Escalade with 30 inch chrome rims. All bought with money they don't have. They would rather eat ramen or government cheese and live in a roach motel than have to not have expensive stuff.
