''I am the visual, the inspiration that made Lady Sing the Blues'' }}

* [[Angry Black Man]]: Well, Angry Black Boy in his case.

''the same spark that lights the dark''

''so that you can know your left from your right'' }}

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Not a dye job but a hairstyle change. Riley's hair was changed from being short to having cornrows.

* [[Annoying Younger Sibling]]: To Huey.

''the bullet in the gun''

''that inner glow that lets you know to call your brother "son"'' }}

* [[Acrofatic]]

* [[Badass Grandpa]]

=== Michael Caesar ===

[[File:Caesar 6704.gif|frame]]

* [[Celeb Crush]]: Claimed Jennifer Lopez was the female ideal of unobtainable beauty and then dumped her off the list because of the movie ''Enough''.

* [[Cute Shotaro Boy]]

=== Jazmine Dubois ===

[[File:Jazmine 4374.jpg|frame]]

* [[Accidental Pervert]]: Poor Jazmine. Her first penis display belonged to an 80+ year old man.

* [[Break the Cutie]]: A major reason Huey has for talking to her in the comics, though he doesn't exactly mean to be malicious - he truly thinks she would be better off if she were a cynic like him, so he makes it his mission to tear down her childlike beliefs. She's able to turn the tables, though, rendering Huey speechless.

=== Cindy McPhearson ===

[[File:Cindy 2175.jpg|frame]]

* [[Character Exaggeration]]: In the original comic, she was simply a white student obsessed with black culture and oblivious to Huey's blatant dislike of her. In the show, she's an over-exaggerated whigger.

* [[Cheerful Child]]: The comic version is arguably even more cheerful than Jazmine since she doesn't have Jazmine's insecurities or Huey to depress her.

=== Ed Wuncler III ===

[[File:Wuncler 3rd 9615.jpg|frame]]

* [[Ax Crazy]]: Mostly in terms of how he thinks outright sociopathic behavior is all in good fun.

* [[Bring My Brown Pants]]: His time in Iraq... good god.

=== Gin Rummy ===

[[File:Gin Rummy 5262.jpg|frame]]

* [[Comedic Sociopathy]]

* [[Conspiracy Theorist]]

 

=== (A Pimp Named) Slickback ===

* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't call him just "Slickback", he's "A Pimp Named Slickback"! He also slaps his hookers for their indiscretions.

* [[Bros Before Hoes]]: Nnnnope. In fact, he will put ''everything'' but a bro before a hoe.

=== Colonel H. Stinkmeaner ===

[[File:STINKMEANER 8996.jpg|frame]]

* [[Badass Crew|Badass and]] [[Jerkass]] [[Badass Crew|Crew]]: Stinkmeaner in his slightly younger days belonged to the Hateocracy, a group of senior citizens who hated everything and were all [[jerkass]]es. Stinkmeaner {{spoiler|might not be that dangerous a fighter, but the rest of the Hateocracy is dangerous enough to defeat and [[Off with His Head|behead]] [[Memetic Badass|Bushido Brown]].}}

=== Gangstalicious ===

[[File:gangstalicious 1489.jpg|frame]]

* [[Armored Closet Gay]]

* [[Broken Pedestal]]: Zigzagged. On one hand, Riley's perception of him as a tough rapper has been destroyed when his [[Jerkass Facade]] and homosexuality gets unveiled. However, he still likes to listen to his music, and they are very friendly to each other despite that.

 

=== Lamilton Taeshawn ===

* [[Abusive Parents]]: Apparently he had these. He inverts it with his abuse of his grandma.

* [[Ax Crazy]]

 

=== The Ruckus Family ===

* [[Abusive Parents]]: Nelly "raised" her son Mister to be an asshole like herself, and Mister is this towards Uncle, even kicking him out of the house.
