It's common with (West) Africans and Caribbean people so I wonder if ADOS do that thing too?

the 1970s: or the 1990s

This is something I think about often lately :jbhmm: The best way to relate it to The Coli is all that talk about being "On Code"-- It's an empty phrase on it's surface but ritual is one of the things that could add substance and definition to it. IF by chance the word "ritual" brings a...

I was listening to this and I noticed YNW Melly has a bit of a Jamaican accent in the chorus:ohhh:. Knowing Melly from Miami, which has a decent sized West Indian community, I thought he probably picked it up from them (not sure if he's ADOS or not). I know its kinda weird to think about this...
