comment
Broken Aesop: The movie hammers home the message of being yourself via Joe's mantra of "I gotta be me", while indulging in the premise of a white man pretending to be a black woman, which he's able to continue when the listeners vote for him to stay on air as both Joe and Loqueesha.

Sassy Black Woman: Invoked with Loqueesha, Joe's radio persona who takes the form of a black woman. They later hire an actual black woman with a similar attitude when Joe and Mason realize they need a face for said persona.

Ghetto Name: The titular name is a blatant example already, but it's the name a white man, Joe, invents for his black female radio persona. Let's leave it at that.

Modern Minstrelsy: Invoked Trope, in which Joe, a white man, pretends to be a Sassy Black Woman on the radio, because supposedly his "sagely life-changing advice" would go unnoticed if it came from a white man.

Informed Ability: Joe is repeatedly said by other characters that he always gives brilliant, essential, life and society-transforming advice, and always "the right thing to just the right person". In reality the "therapy advice" consists of abusive, faux-wisdom trite and cliched statements.

Terrible Interviewees Montage: Joe and Mason when they're looking for an actor for Loqueesha to make public appearances. There was a Creepy Crossdresser and then an old Asian lady at one point.

comment
Larynx Dissonance: Saville's attempt to imitate the voice of a Sassy Black Woman leaves a lot to be desired, to say the least. In-Universe, however, Joe has everyone convinced that Loqueesha was an actual black woman, and those who call "her" on the radio don't seem to hear anything amiss.
