Definitions

Thug realness is a realness category where you're scored on how convincingly you pass as a hard street 'thug' — the walk, the clothes, the attitude, the whole performance of tough masculinity. Realness in ballroom is about being so authentic you'd blend into that world unnoticed, and thug realness is its street-tough flavour, a close cousin of banjee.
