Friends and loyalty have a value that you cannot put a price on. Having friends that you can trust with anything, creates a unique feeling of happiness that not everyone has the opportunity to experience. The Ugly Crew is the story of this distinct relationship with a tight group of childhood friends. But what is the meaning of the "Ugly" crew. In our present time, lots of words have evolved and grown their own definitions. No one ever thought that the word "Chronic" would have a refrence to marijuana. In the eyes of today's society ugly people are obese, unarttractive, foul, or rude. Ugliness in the eyes of the UC takes on a different interpretation. They do not believe that being ugly has anything to do with appearence. Being ugly to the UC is about accepting yourself for who you are and keeping an open mind. Here is a quote from one of the members "If you think yourself as ugly, then no criticism, opinion, or judgment toward you will ever bother you." Apperance means nothing. Why do popular kids in High school always look and dress the same? They are sheep following the crowd. Impressing everyone around them and getting people to like them is their main goal. These people are labeled by the UC as "Pretty Boys." PB's have big egos and naturally only think about themselves. Another UC member states; "Pretty boys are fake, they would run if a friend was in a fight, and they wouldn't share thier last piece of bread if they were both starving." With the new Rap today, it seems that the content has drastically changed. Subjects like reality, struggles, and racism have been traded for fantasies, parties, bling, and cars. If you are looking for some substance in lyrics, you have found a group that remembers its roots. You will not find the UC rapping about cars and girls. Their lyrics are as deep as their philosophies about life and ugliness. Being ugly is a way of life which is refelected in your attitude and everyday living. Your life, goals, and mentality show the truth. Are you ugly? I know I am.
