We hate to place people in categories, but while pondering which panhellenic fraternity would best fit today’s R&B gents and Hollywood up-starts – stereotypes were inevitable. Check out where everyone landed below…
Alpha Phi Alpha
The Stereotypes: It’s no mistake this fraternity produces more CEO’s than the others, since these guys are always hitting the books. An Alpha man won’t liven up the party during those collegiate nights, but he’ll have the best paying job after graduation.
R.C’s Choice for Membership:
- Nick Cannon: You call him a cornball, but Forbes call him a mogul, so we call him an Alpha.
- Ne-Yo: Doesn’t always get the girl, but will make a mint writing about it, classic Alpha approach to life.
- Lloyd: He’s the type of guy you’d let date your younger sister, and not even be concerned about anything-nasty happening – which makes him a total Alpha.
- Omarion: Not a classic Alpha, but he’d be recruited for the dance moves and because he’s better with a group than solo.
Real Alpha’s – Keenen Ivory Wayans, Thurgood Marshall, Duke Ellington, Lionel Richie
Kappa Alpha Psi
The Stereotypes: Immaculate is an understatement, since Kappa’s are all about the exterior. Well spoken and well groomed, he may have a million groupies, but his looks are always his biggest concern.
R.C’s Choice for Membership:
- Mr. West: Spends more money on clothes than Posh Beckham, and isn’t ashamed of that fact – classic Nupe mentality.
- Bobby Valentino: Chapter mascot, so excited that they processed his application he’d be the Kappa that never leaves home without a cane and/or something red.
- Mario: This guy pretends he isn’t as vain as most Kappa’s which means he’s just in it for the groupies.
- Chris Brown: Would be the chapter stepmaster, and doing amazing things with the Kappa Kane – besides he’s too pretty for anything else.
Real Kappa’s – Johnnie Cochran, John Singleton, Tavis Smiley, Cedric the Entertainer
Omega Psi Phi
The Stereotypes: This man’s man is usually at school on some sports scholarship, but that won’t keep him from getting the party started. Almost always the life of any event involving liquor, just don’t expect to see him at graduation – especially his own.
R.C’s Choice for Membership:
- Weezy: There’s always one small rowdy, loud-mouthed ghetto Q on every yard, Weezy would be him.
- TIP: Cocky enough to be a Kappa, but we all know he’s a barking dog at heart – which explains why his rap career is immensely successful.
- Bow Wow: Not the typical Omega, but has a big dog personality in his Bow Wow packaging.
- Tyrese: Classic Omega from head to toe, athletic, loud and looks like he can hold his liquor.
Real Omega’s – Langston Hughes, Shaquille O’Neal, Micheal Jordan, Steve Harvey
Phi Beta Sigma
The Stereotypes: Sigmas believe there as tough as Omega’s or pretty as Kappa’s but just didn’t fit in with either. They come in all shapes and sizes, but don’t call them a “potluck,” since they take their weeklong pledge process very seriously.
R.C’s Choice for Membership:
- Pharrel: Always an individual, he would have pledged just to start a new trend.
- Juelz Santana: Similar to his music career he would pledge just to be down with something, and since Pharrel started a trend, he’d follow but pretend he did it first.
- Trey Songz: Would have wanted to be a Kappa but they didn’t like his un-proven cockiness.
- Ray-J: Should have been an Alpha since his Mom’s is an AKA, but being a classic rebel, would have joined to piss off the fam.
Real Sigma’s – Jerry Rice, Blair Underwood, Emmit Smith
