The Boondocks has a mostly hip-hop-influenced soundtrack full of songs and tunes that are quite catchy, hilarious, or even awesome.

Multiple Seasons
All Series
- The opening theme song, "Judo Flip" by Asheru, is a fittingly badass theme for an action-comedy show.
Recurring
- The recurring "Booty Butt Cheeks" by Thugnificent is very amusingly catchy.
- The Groin Attack song "Stomp 'em in the Nuts", also by Thugnificent, is hilarious as well.
Season 1
The Garden Party
- Uncle Ruckus singing "Don't Trust Them New Niggas Over There!" is a funny Establishing Character Moment for him.
The Story of Gangstalicious
- Gangstalicious' ridiculously catchy song "Thuggin' Love" is actually a funny metaphor for his secret homosexuality.
The Itis
- "Straight Outta the Oven, Made with Nothin' But Lovin" is one of the most rap songs used in the entire series.
Riley Wuz Here
- When Robert sees Riley's last mural (a painting of Robert and his wife on their wedding day), the fitting song "Today" plays for this Awesomely Heartwarming Tear Jerker scene.
Season 2
Stinkmeaner Strikes Back
- During the epic fight scene between the Freeman family vs. the Stinkmeaner-possessed Tom Dubois, this song by Metaphor the Great plays in the background, which contains a remixed version of the tune from "Judo Flip".
- When the Stinkmeaner-possessed Tom Dubois enters the Freeman residence with an ax, this song by Isabelle Antena plays in the background, which makes this scene a lot scarier than it needs to be.
The Story of Catcher Freeman
- During Robert's version of the story, we hear the slaves singing "Take Our Black Asses Outta Here", a funny theme song about the legendary hero Catcher Freeman.
- During Ruckus' version of the story, we hear the slaves singing his own song "Don't Trust Them New Niggas Over There", which as Huey quickly points out, is not a real spiritual song.
The Story of Gangstalicious Part 2
- Gangstalicious' hit new song "Homies Over Hoes" is a funnier (and even more obvious) metaphor for his semi-secret homosexuality.
Season 3
It's a Black President, Huey Freeman
- Thugnificent's song "Dick Riding Obama", a parody of will.i.am's "Yes We Can", satirically mocks the celebrities who jumped on the Barack Obama bandwagon during the 2008 US presidential election.
Bitches to Rags
- Sergeant Gutter's "Crank That Artichoke", a funny parody of "Crank That Soulja Boy".
- "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.
Stinkmeaner 3: The Hateocracy
- During Robert's nightmare about Stinkmeaner, Stinkmeaner's catchphrase "BITCH-ASS NYUGGA!" gets remixed into a rap song that plays in the background.
- This tune that plays when Huey and Riley fight George and Esmeralda (two members of the Hateocracy trio) is just plain awesome.
- This tune that plays when Bushido Brown has a climactic battle against the Hateocracy sounds just as (if not more) epic.
The Fried Chicken Flu
- "Bone Sucking Good", a stupidly catchy jingle for an in-universe KFC TV ad.
Season 4
Pretty Boy Flizzy
- Pretty Boy Flizzy's humorously risqué song "I Wanna Do Your Wife" plays in the end credits.
