6''WesternAnimation/TheBoondocks'' has a mostly hip-hop-influenced soundtrack full of songs and tunes that are quite catchy, [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments hilarious]], or even [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome awesome]].

10[[folder:Multiple Seasons]]
11[[AC:All Series]]
12* The [[ThemeTune opening theme song]], "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4k2er_-Pe90 Judo Flip]]" by Asheru, is a fittingly badass theme for an action-comedy show.
13%%* The short yet sweet [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4ARnKW4nLY ending theme tune]], also by Asheru.
14
15[[AC:Recurring]]
16* The recurring "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvSFbzec7CE Booty Butt Cheeks]]" by Thugnificent is very amusingly catchy.
17* The GroinAttack song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REVl4skqqUg Stomp 'em in the Nuts]]", also by Thugnificent, is hilarious as well.

21[[AC:The Garden Party]]
22* [[BoomerangBigot Uncle Ruckus]] [[NWordPrivileges singing]] "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU8jxLQl1ag Don't Trust Them New Niggas Over There!]]" is a funny EstablishingCharacterMoment for him.
23
24[[AC:The Story of Gangstalicious]]
25* Gangstalicious' ridiculously catchy song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqpXPe1pWag Thuggin' Love]]" is actually a funny metaphor for his [[ArmoredClosetGay secret homosexuality]].
26
27[[AC:The Itis]]
28* "Straight Outta the Oven, Made with Nothin' But Lovin" is one of the most rap songs used in the entire series.
29
30[[AC:Riley Wuz Here]]
31* When Robert sees Riley's last mural (a painting of Robert and his wife on their wedding day), the fitting song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYKPc-DooNo Today]]" plays for this [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Awesomely]] SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming|Moments}} TearJerker scene.
32%%
33%%[[AC:The Passion of Reverend Ruckus]]
34%%* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQ2fjVHxgvs I Believe In It]]" is one of the most moving songs.
35[[/folder]]
36
37[[folder:Season 2]]
38[[AC:Stinkmeaner Strikes Back]]
39* During the epic fight scene between the Freeman family vs. the Stinkmeaner-possessed Tom Dubois, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nivkA8ASa8 this song by Metaphor the Great]] plays in the background, which contains a remixed version of the tune from "Judo Flip".
40* When the Stinkmeaner-possessed Tom Dubois enters the Freeman residence with an ax, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbryKERPhfY this song by Isabelle Antena]] plays in the background, which makes this scene [[NightmareFuel a lot scarier than it needs to be.]]
41
42%%[[AC:The Story of Thugnificent]]
43%%* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0IkZ08M4k4 Eff Grandad]]", Thugnificent's hilarious TakeThat to Robert.
44%%
45[[AC:The Story of Catcher Freeman]]
46* During Robert's version of the story, we hear the slaves singing "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptPN4yMh0OY Take Our Black Asses Outta Here]]", a funny theme song about the legendary hero Catcher Freeman.
47%%* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-G4xAijMq4 Charging Fort Wagner]]" from ''Film/{{Glory}}'' plays during the climax of Robert's story.
48* During [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrZZQzyhp7g Ruckus' version of the story]], we hear the slaves singing [[AnachronismStew his own song "Don't Trust Them New Niggas Over There"]], which as Huey quickly points out, is ''not'' a real spiritual song.
49
50[[AC:The Story of Gangstalicious Part 2]]
51* [[ArmoredClosetGay Gangstalicious]]' hit new song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQWk3Gfhi5E Homies Over Hoes]]" is a funnier (and even more obvious) metaphor for his semi-secret homosexuality.
52[[/folder]]
53
54[[folder:Season 3]]
55[[AC:It's a Black President, Huey Freeman]]
56* Thugnificent's song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-Ixtk-_clo Dick Riding Obama]]", a parody of [[Music/BlackEyedPeas will.i.am]]'s "Yes We Can", satirically mocks the celebrities who jumped on the UsefulNotes/BarackObama bandwagon during the 2008 US presidential election.
57
58[[AC:Bitches to Rags]]
59* Sergeant Gutter's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1swVQa8RHVU Crank That Artichoke]]", a funny parody of "[[Music/SouljaBoy Crank That Soulja Boy]]".
60* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1m2A-95wzA Terrible in Terra Belle]]" is designed to be dreadful autotune shlock and a sign of how far Thugnificent has fallen from grace, but it manages to be pretty catchy and well-produced out-of-universe. Notably, it becomes Thugnificent's {{Leitmotif}} after this episode.
61
62[[AC:Stinkmeaner 3: The Hateocracy]]
63* During [[DreamIntro Robert's nightmare about Stinkmeaner]], Stinkmeaner's [[CharacterCatchphrase catchphrase]] "[[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch BITCH-ASS]] [[NWordPrivileges NYUGGA]]!" gets [[VoiceClipSong remixed]] into a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vtcmV8_SME rap song]] that plays in the background.
64* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efB7bCUUh10 This tune]] that plays when Huey and Riley fight George and Esmeralda (two members of the Hateocracy trio) is just plain awesome.
65* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uopVESJn8zo This tune]] that plays when Bushido Brown has a climactic battle against the Hateocracy sounds just as (if not more) epic.
66%%* Instead of the usual ending theme, we have [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUk2903xghA Stinkmeaner singing a similar tune]].
67
68[[AC:The Fried Chicken Flu]]
69* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4z7G57e41A Bone Sucking Good]]", a stupidly catchy jingle for an in-universe [[UsefulNotes/KentuckyFriedChicken KFC]] TV ad.
70[[/folder]]
71
72[[folder:Season 4]]
73[[AC:Pretty Boy Flizzy]]
74* [[TheCasanova Pretty Boy Flizzy]]'s humorously risqué song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5yI4N7MfAg I Wanna Do Your Wife]]" plays in the end credits.
75%%
76%%[[AC:Good Times]]
77%%* Throughout the episode, lyrics from the ''Series/GoodTimes'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeDdt6X8vFU theme song]] randomly pop up.
78%%
79%%[[AC:Freedom Ride or Die]]
80%%* The [[UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement Freedom Riders]] singing this motivational song, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPuBGcng6Tw Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around]]".
81%%
82%%[[AC:Stinkmeaner: Begun the Clone War Has]]
83%%* Once again during the end credits, we have Stinkmeaner (or rather his clone) singing a song, in this case "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATo7KRpkALM Stinkmeaner Forever]]".
