Young Will Smith had a slight Philly accent, but he’s super educated and grew up in a good household so his vernacular always been on point. It’s pretty much gone at this point.



Celeb wise I’d say Eve and Kev Hart have the typical Philly accent.

dc has one of the most distinctive accents in the country.

Ain’t no other nikkas walking around saying moe, ji, lls, ect.

That’s moreso slang but hell, even the slang is unique too lol

Hershey’s Park was the ishhhh!!!! Chocolate World + 3D experience is one of the best places on Earf.

We had season passes and would go to Christmas Candylane during the holiday. Sesame Street Place was way out in Amish land - that part of PA is country asf. Memories. This current state of Isolation fukked up everything

DC def has a accent. When I used to goto VSU and was dealing with them DC nikkas. It stood out. Matter of fact. It made all our accents show.

DC. Maryland. South Philly. 757 nikkas. Southern Va nikkas. Brooklyn nikkas . Bronx nikkas. shyt we even had a mix of Cali bytches and Chicago . First time I met a Chicago , I was like why the fukk you sound like from the deep south.

North Jerz and South Jersey so different.

Back when I was in Va. All the Baltimore girls had that different color braid shyt going on. Or was that DMV shyt?

Was this back in the late 2000’s/early 2010’s period? This was definitely the era where DMV chicks, especially hood/ratchet joints from Soufeast and PG were rocking them colorful ass weaves and shyt
