[Visit Thug Boy]

Black and Latin men alone and together in some very hot video and pics. Too bad about the digital camera noise and flashes in the vids.

BG Review

BananaGuide in no way endorses fucking without a condom. Please play safe! Our views on safer sex in porn.

Our 2008 review update highlights a good-looking site with increased video counts and steady performance. Thug Boy offers an attractive roster of hot younger black and Latino guys, complete with authentic ebonic descriptions. Still we thought most of the guys looked more "cute" than "thug." Video quality is good but some of the older vids are punctuated with too many camera pops and flashes, and sometimes the performances are a bit lethargic. Fewer pics and better quality video would be a desirable trend for Thug Boy, but this site is steadily improving and definitely worth a look, and with almost 36 hours of video to watch, its pretty good value too.

Tour
Click "Thugs" and "Thug Flicks" to get a complete index of all the photo and video sessions inside Thug Boy. On the "Home" page you'll find a long, explicit, preview clip that definitely got us interested in these hot and often bog-dicked men. There are good-sized free sample pics for most of the sessions as you browse through the index before joining.

Navigation
Navigation is fairly clean throughout the site. The main areas are "Thugs" for the pics and "Thug Flix" for the videos. There is also a "Top Thugs" list, a "Hookups" area, and some stories in the "Hood Tales" area.

Content
The "boy" part of Thug Boy rings more true than "thug" does in this site. These guys are generally on the trim and lean side rather than being big slabs of beef and muscle (though they are sometimes impressively large in the cock department!) All are easy on the eyes and some are downright hot. There are enough washboard abs and bubble butts for everyone.

The model index ("Thugs") includes a huge photo gallery, a bio, and stats for the guy. The videos are shot mostly indoors and many of the more recent videos are duos rather than solo performances. For each video there is a brief description in 'hood talk, ie "Damn brotha Trick always horny, but it's all good, cuz boy be fine as fuck so it aint no thang to just call up Jay." The action includes solo masturbation, sucking, rimming, fucking and toys.

There are more than 220 video episodes averaging 10 minutes in length. Updates of both video and pictures are once weekly.

Video is in Windows Media and Quicktime formats which you can download or stream. The best quality video is Windows Media "hi-def" which plays in a huge 1280x720 window. There is no DRM on the videos, so you can keep them as long as you wish.

There is a definite difference in the quality of the more recent 75% or the videos: more clarity, better sound and more variety of shots and poses than in the older ones. The cumshots are caught most of the time. Our only serious issue with the videos is the frequency of camera flashes and pops in some of them. Why the concentration on huge photo galleries? Video quality definitely suffers due to the photo session.

The site features close to 30,000 high quality digital still photos in almost 220 galleries. We do love these gorgeous pics which are a nice large size at 750x500 pixels. A slideshow and zipfile is available for each gallery. Non-exclusive content includes the cinema, which taps the AEBN catalogue of black and interracial videos, and the Cocostore that sells Thug DVDs, toys, calendars, and magazines.

Summing Up
A year after our last review, Thug Boy is advertising for an experienced videographer. We think that's a smart move. The site needs to continue improving video quality in order to showcase the sexy bodies and big cocks of these young studs even better. Meanwhile, at $19.95 for almost 36 hours of video there's a great collection of black and Latin talent to be found here.
