Geez this is so embarrassing to have to explain….brehs we are no longer ‘code switching’ for many reasons.

1, hip hop culture, black culture, is universal. There is no longer some huge divide between us and the masses. Pathways to money are no longer gatekeeped by nerdy white guys in suits. The white man you’re kowtowing to grew up on Eminem and DMX yes he can tell you’re performing and yes you sound like a clown.

2. Not to mention, he’s selling fukking burgers God forbid he was in an actual corporate space some of you would encourage him to do a jig

And speaking of corporate space, some of you still think in terms of over-correcting for the ‘angry intimidating black man’. Meanwhile black women are off the chain, making a point to revamp the workplace, white women are 'nasty women'… At my job everyone speaks firmly, passionately, even argue, fight for their opinions. It’s expected. You shouldn’t switch up for NObody and stop thinking you need to be docile

Bad example, he sounds the same there

He has the Houston drawl throughout the interview. It ain’t rocket science that people talk to different people (parents) different ways (homies) but he going overboard.

Any Texas posters tried his
burgers? Is it good?

9.2/10

I'm a Louisiana og.

 

[DatBoiHawk]

That's his fukking business if he wanna sound like Mr Rogers. How the fukk is that bettering your life?

I was simply just responding my guy. You can hate facts all you want

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

"I am a professooooor"

 

[Lonj]

There was definitely some "golly gee willickers" but I ain't gon hold em.

One cat that I never hear change up no matter where he's at is Rakim.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

Of course The Coli tries to shyt on Bun because he’s articulate

This is literally the shyt I be talking about…

Nobody is criticizing him being “articulate”. They’re pointing out how he talking to negros vs how he speaks to white America.

Example:


I don’t have a problem with code switching, he’s at work. I code switch at work. But stop the narrative about “articulate”

fire…the fries too…

 

[Animal House]

Sounds like a normal adult male raised very well..
If people think this is amazing, how does everyone else speak

Have you seen that video of the Georgia breh?

 

[KnickstapeCity]

Bun been had a big dikk.

 

[360dagod]

Pimp would Neva

Pimp would be out of business

A highly successful product too. I bet anybody would be jolly AF if their burger was named the best in America and they were able to get on Good Morning America to promote it. Man I’ve had to talk to plenty restaurants for the local news and they be happy. Imagine getting on a broadcast that goes all over the fukkin country. I’m not mad at this man at all. It’s funny cause people expect southerners to all sound country. You get an articulate one and now he sounds white. C’mon man.

Do y’all realize what you’re saying?!? ‘Das a good, good product’.c00nin

I think the elephant in the room ——and no disrespect this is just being Frank —-is a lot of you may not be capable of a neutral, normal speaking voice. So you’re self concious of what you sound like, so in your mind, ‘oh if I’s gets to da big leagues oh i’s gon so speak the KING’S English’

And you don’t realize that ngga, we can tell. And it sounds foolish.

Bun is clearly self conscious of his Texas drawl and goes above and beyond to hide it, not knowing he sounds ridiculous

‘If I was on GMA’ Michael strahan himself dont code switch

Here’s Wall Street trapper on Ellen, heavy Nola accent and all. No code switching (Ion like how they had the bruh interviewing him and not Ellen)
