that's wrong breh.

Black people in ny/nj have a specific way of talking. If a albanian/hispanic/italian talks like that they have grown up around black people.

those ethnic groups do live around black people anyway. we're both right

I don't ever notice it

The worse of all is the Jamaican accent. They sound so backwards.

These are all white people accents. Almost no black people sound like this at all.

Thanks Breh. You learn something new everyday. Just wondering since Jay Diddy and 50 all sound different from Ray Romano for example.

What I'm ask for is if any black people have accents as described here

Going by the names of notable people listed as having the accent I'm going to to say no. Hell no.

Hell, it even says that exactly in the article you linked:

The classic "New York dialect" is centered on middle and working class European Americans, and this ethnic cluster now accounts for less than half of the city's population. Now, the most secure strongholds of the New York dialect are arguably the suburban areas of Nassau County, western Suffolk County, Westchester County, Rockland County, northern and southwestern Queens, southern Brooklyn, and Staten Island, although many strong New York dialect speakers remain in Queens, The Bronx, Brooklyn, and Manhattan...




Many African American New Yorkers speak African American Vernacular English (AAVE), though with some New York dialect features
