...what in blue blazes is a "crunk"?

for real...sounds like somethin you'd do if you pulled a muscle really really really bad. and who even came up with the term "crunk" anyway?

please...there's somebody 'round here who could help me to understand. slang gets stranger and stranger every year...

Yeah, I'm not a fan of this word at all. I first heard it on Family Affair by Mary J. At first I thought she was saying "drunk," and I was like, "Okay, she's ownin' up to her drinkin' ways. Good for her." Then somebody told me she was saying "crunk" and explained that it means crazy, whatever. So...why not just say crazy? lol

THEN I saw Mary J. on Oprah a little over a year ago and she was talking about that song. Originally she did say "drunk" but was trying to change her ways.

JANFAN4L practically wrote a dissertation on crunk here on the org a few months ago. Maybe you should include "crunk" in the title of this thread. That should have answers coming much more quickly.

CRAP + STUNK = CRUNK

You can get a Ph.D. in Crunkology?! GTFOOH!

I actually liked "Get Crunked Up" by the Iconz.
BET was running this "12 Days of Crunkmas" commercial. It just didn't sound right.

Crazy drunk= crunk


Just more idiotic bullshit.

I remember that silly promo. It was the "12 Joints of Crunkmas" or something.

I do remember vividly explaining what the term was about musically and its origins, but I can't find it. The Org doesn't have a worthwhile search feature anymore.

Though I did love it as a child, that's not the Family Affair to which I was referring.

How long are people going to actually brag on this pic its been on his damn message board for a hot minute

It's about time he closed his ugly mouth.

This reminds me of an ongoing problem:

You really don't see enough white folks in hardcore gangsta rap.

He looks so much more pleasent with it shut.

What a sad state of affairs.

Talk about gettin over without any talent.. he keeps writing the same riff over and over, sorry the same loop, and makes millions.. he's a total joke and Chappelle can do him better than he can.. He'll be right up there with "Woomp thee it Is" anytime now, but he'll have made millions off the kids by then..

I dont get it and never will, it all sucks.....

If Lil' John is representative in any way for whatever "crunk" is, I'll pass thanks.
