One possibility of where boogie and honkey come from could be white people who wanted to make money selling real estate further out from the city's core needed a boogeyman, something that would get people to leave. They start to convince other white people that these guys with the darker skin, puffer hair, and bigger dicks are the scariest people they've ever seen, and start calling them boogies (even though they dont really do anything any more disturbing than white people). When the same white people come back to buy drugs, they honk their horns to let people know they're outside, so they get called honkeys. There could be a different reason for the names though.
