 Black American princess

Black American princess (BAP) is a (sometimes) pejorative term for African-American women of upper and upper middle class background, who possess (or are perceived to possess) a spoiled or materialistic demeanor.While carrying valley girls overtones of the overly materialistic and style-conscious egotist, the term has also been reclaimed as a matter of racial pride to cover an indulged, but unnecessarily spoilt or shallow, daughter of the emerging Buppies or black urban middle class.
