"Boughetto" is a 2002 rap single from the album Heavy Starch by Ali featuring Murphy Lee about being boughetto. The word is a clash or portmanteau of the words bourgeois — to belong to the middle class — and ghetto — to be restricted by social, economic or legal pressure. It speaks about people who are somewhat wealthy but at the same time cannot keep their ghetto-side from showing.
