You think you’ve got your Ph.D. in being a freak? Well, guard your azz, America, because thug porn is creepin’ up on the family jewels. Led by a triumvirate ... which includes Pitbull Productions —as well as Tiger Tyson, the genre’s most recognized star, thug porn is right in step with what contemporary pop culture says is sexy: Blinged-out young black and Latino guys making deals and getting shit done — which in this case means pounding a fellow thug deep in the butt with an uncut cock and come-blasting his face.

Thug porn may have gay thugs (at least part-time), but they aren’t play thugs — these guys really do live in the ’hoods of Detroit, Miami, Atlanta, Philly, and especially New York. Thug videos allow viewers entry into a shadowy, sexy world where the ferocious players possess exceptionally mammoth, dark-skinned cocks and cool names like Phat Daddy, Troy Penetrator, Ass Professor, Volkalz, Da Bomb, Sho-Nuff, Haze, and Sexy Veteran. These are the “tough street types who are keeping it real,” explains thug-porn titan Tiger Tyson.

Soul and Hot Sex

Victor Hoff, publisher of the popular adult blog Men of Color, has written about “blatino” porn and posted thug links and photos daily since 2004. Hoff observes that “Baby Boomers, who were responsible for the [initial] success of the adult industry, are going away, and a new generation of producers are moving in to fill their ranks.” The result: an explosion of “niche porn.” According to Hoff, thug porn is a particularly hot niche because “anyone who likes men—adult, developed men who have a sense of their own sexuality—will be more than satisfied by what’s…delivered.”

Pitbull Productions producer and CEO Jalin Fuentes coined the phrase “thug porn,” says Tyson, who’s been the popular face (and dick) of the urban trends since his 1997 debut. This year Tyson won a GayVN award and was the trade magazine’s first coverthug, so he’s come a long way.

“In the black and Latino community being gay is not something you brag about—there’s a lot of pressure from your friends and relatives to stay in the closet—a lot of the guys are married or have at least fathered a child or two,” confesses Tiger Tyson, who recently told a West Hollywood audience that one of his many tattoos is for his daughter. “Having man-on-man sex is kept quiet and on the DL [down low].”
