Bun B code switching with this Trill Burger ad for GMA

[Blessings]

Nah this ain't my trill o.g. that's a bun b clone

nikkas saying that ad ain’t code switching

 

[MrLogic]

We all code switch...

though

Why do black oeople still insist sounding white = trying to be articulate lol?

Someone posted a video of his regular speaking voice where he was just as articulate without the stereotypical cac voice inflection.

Code switching is giving into conformity and the usual "white is right" mentality which is basically what he was doing.

They’re lacking of critical thinking and emotional. Bun was clearly code-switch

‘I walk in every room as myself. I don’t walk in as anyone else. I’m not cowering, I’m not speaking soft,

My voice doesn’t change…’​

Foh

Nas, Jay, 50, and other NYC legends would never

bun has always been articulate, though.

Folks forget the man taught a university course. Hip hop or not, you need a certain level of sophistication and intellect to do that...

*takes out notepad*

black men…can’t…swing…arms

ok up to speed now

Nah that arm came from deep left field

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

I would say he is speaking professionally.

 

[Lord Beasley]

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

the average person sounds like a complete idiot and doesn't know the difference between there/their/they're or how to properly spell Wednesday

 

[Mindfield333]

sounds the same…imo that’s one of the things that made bun a standout MC…dude enunciates his words thoroughly…only thing is he’s doing a burger ad and not rapping so his voice is calm

Man that tooth paste commercial he did some years ago was some egregious code switching

 

[Peter Popoff]

Watch your mouth breh

You from PA and got a Kobe/ Lakers avi. See what I mean?

Lmao, fụckin witchu....

This may go down as the most eye opening, embarrassing thread I’ve ever seen on here. Been lurking for 10 years. The sheer amount of unknowing self-ether. This is insane











I’m fukin weak!

 

[rabbid]

yeah, ive never seen a black man say "we stole the title " like that and jab his arm across his chest. thats definitely code switching and making sure white folks know he's just joshing.

at the same time. he told us in '07... you know the game and how it goes... we tryna get CHOSE

 

[Gritsngravy]

Anybody try the burger

 

[Sleepy Floyd]

Bun B has always been one of the most intelligent and articulate rappers. Dude is actually a huge nerd and well-read, and was a college professor for a bit

 

[seabreeze80]

Being articulate doesn't mean changing your entire voice, your mannerisms and the way you speak. He's like Kanye. He's code switching.

Absolutely not

He definitely put on his white man voice midway through
