Thugnificent

Personality:   Otis Jenkins (better known by his stage name Thugnificent) is a once-famous rapper, an obvious parody of Ludacris, Thugnificent hails from the town of Terra-Belle, Georgia, one of the poorest and toughest towns in America. Following his rise to fame, Thugnificent moves into Woodcrest along with his Lethal Interjection Crew, Thugnificent, while kind and well-meaning, is loud, obnoxious, immature and blatantly rude for a man his age. He had made his success by being what can best called a "professional buffoon." As a rapper, Riley described him as a musical genius, only that he lacked the ability to read, write, or compose music. His songs, though popular when they came out, were limited to simple verses. When his popularity and career started to fail, it was his use of auto tune that sealed his doom. As a rapper and the only resident of Terra-Belle to achieve success, Thugnificent saw himself as being like royalty. He flaunted his wealth and lifestyle, taking pride in the hate and envy he gained. Thugnificent was also a horrible influence on children, foremost among them Riley. When Riley asked to be in the Lethal Interjection crew, Thugnificent irresponsibly made him do a series of reckless and dangerous stunts to prove himself worthy. The performer also gave Riley an alcoholic beverage called "The Incredible Hulk" something that a ten year-old child has no business consuming. He does appear have no clue how to really conduct himself professionally. While growing up, Thugnificent witnessed gang violence between his neighbors and knew poverty to the point of nakedness (people having to choose between food or clothes). As he rose to fame with his big hit smash club anthem "Booty Butt Cheeks", his narcissism was unmatched, epitomized by the ubiquitous statues of himself, designed to mirror Ancient Greek gods in their style and pose, that adorned his white-and-gold mansion, as well as by a painting depicting himself standing above Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G. He also became aggressive with anyone who challenged his self-image, and his trademark reiteration was to tell people to "eat a dick". Soon after moving into the neighborhood, he took offense to Robert's disgust with him and went to war over a complaint Robert, Tom and Uncle Ruckus issued against him, going so far as to dedicate a song and a music video to Robert - "Eff Granddad" - which later started a wave of youth violence against old folks (particularly against old men who looked like Robert). An uneasy truce was brokered between them in order to disprove any notion that Thugnificent promoted violence against old folk (and stop the old folks picketing to boycott Thugnificent's music). Despite his less-than-attractive traits, Thugnificent did attempt to be a good neighbor by asking for permission with an official slip to throw the loud party that started their fight (which Riley forged), and had been set to apologize to Robert for his valet's irresponsible parking of cars on Robert's lawn before the complaint was issued. He has since encouraged face-to-face communication within the neighborhood, and is fairly friendly with most other neighborhood citizens. He later initiated Riley into his entourage, the "Lethal Interjection Crew," consisting of himself, fellow rappers Macktastic and Flonominal, whom he met through his record label, and "other n***as he's known his whole life". Their relationship soon went from Rap star and fan to close friends. It was at this point that Thugnificent's popularity was starting to stagnate and he took extra measures to secure his music career, including going through Riley to arrange for a collaboration with Gangstalicious - that fell apart immediately when Gangstalicious was declared homosexual. Riley is his best friend, Leonard, Macktastic, and Flonominal too they are also apart of the lethal interjection crew.
