The Proud Family Wiki

The Proud Family Opening Theme is the song that plays after the prologue of every episode of the Disney Channel animated television series The Proud Family as well as its Disney+ revival The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder. The original version of the theme song was performed by Solange featuring Destiny's Child, while the current version was performed by Joyce Wrice and one spoken word by the show's voice actor. The song was composed by Kurt Farquhar, who composed both versions of the theme song.

Production[]

During the making of the show's revival, Farquhar stated the plan was to modernize the song for a new generation. So he gave it a new beat, and the team selected a new vocalist, R&B singer Joyce Wrice (she is 29 years old), who was a fan of the original series.

The Proud Family[]

Full version (CD only)[]

The, proud, family, what?
You and me will always be tight
Family every single day and night
Even when you start acting like a fool
You know I'm loving every
Single thing you do
I know that I can always be myself
Around you more than anybody else
Everyday as I'm heading off to school
You know there's no one I
Love as much as you
Family, a family proud family
They'll make you scream
They'll make you wanna sing
It's a family thing a family thing
Proud, Proud family proud Family
They'll push your buttons!
They'll make you wanna hug 'em
A family, a family proud, Proud family
I sleep tight, knowing that you're there
I look around me, you're everywhere
In my heart and even in my soul
You know I take you every single place I go
Everyday, I'm hanging with my friends
Got school, but when the day ends
I wanna feel the love I know is really true
I only wanna feel how I
Feel when I'm with you
Family, a family proud family
They'll make you scream
They'll make you wanna sing
It's a family thing a family thing
Proud, Proud family proud Family
They'll push your buttons!
They'll make you wanna hug 'em
A family, a family proud, Proud family

Trivia[]

  • In the revival version, the intro was animated by the Canadian WildBrain Studios, who also worked on Carmen Sandiego.
  • In the original version, Uncle Bobby and the Gross Sisters do not appear in the intro, but Sticky does. However, he does not appear in the revival's intro as he was replaced by Maya and KG because of his actor's troubled life.
