Real Quiet is an American champion thoroughbred racehorse born in 1995 at Little Hill Farm in Ocala, Florida.

Real Quiet was considered to be a strong contender in the Breeders' Cup Classic and was entered in the Pacific Classic.

Each real is different not only in meaning, but in impact and resonance; the weakest being "the real shit," and the most potent being street-cred real.

This construction of the real does not exist in the street, but in the dreams of white suburbia, whose appetite for virtual violence is serviced by extremely rich and powerful fl entrepreneurs like Master P and Dr. Dre.
