So whats the difference between Drake Jafakin accent and Iggy's fake accent?

[SirBiatch]

What part of this right here screams "obvious pop act" to you

The Sprite part.

Let Sprite dictate who is/isn't hip hop, brehs

 

[BigMan]

quality discussion that no one wants to touch

I think it's so cringeworthy when rappers do this so constantly. I mean maybe on one track is fine to fit a certain aesthetic but half the time these rappers are butchering these accents. and some of them like drake don't even have jamaican blood

watch that video of busta and pusha t at the bodega after going to the white house, busta just going ham on his jamaican patois trying to impress the dudes over the counter or some shyt, and you know thats how busta is, its just sad

Lol link?

drake grew up n a White neighborhood and started saying nikka at the age of 22

thats a fact

 

[FS4LFE]

Drake's a vulture. Only reason people let him get away with it is because he's half black.

 

[SunZoo]

nikkas ain't even let Snoop get a pass with that shyt

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Same with him sounding like a southern American dude and saying the word nikka all the time.

Dude is a culture vulture to the fullest

 

[MeachTheMonster]

we're still making these threads?

bruh, he's from Toronto. Half Black. Runs with Black people. Most of which are West Indian (Jamaican specifically). I'm African living in Toronto and even that slanguage bleeds into my talk (and I try to keep shyt like that to a minimum).

Iggy faking an accent from the other side of the planet where no Black people of that culture live is nowhere near the same thing as dude wanting to sound like brothas in his own city

Like you said. You try not to use it because it's not yours. Drake on the other hand is going out of his way to use it, and it's not like it's something he's always done.

He just decided to have a Jamaican accent like last week

 

[DrexlersFade]

Alot of caping and excuse making in this thread damn I wonder sometimes do you fukks act like this in real life?

The man is a fraud period there is no excuse.

 

[Roxx the King]

He's a corny light skinned nikka that always wanted to be down. We watched him do this for years.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

now you just reaching bruh. Ross and Gunplay sound about as Dade county as it gets.

Neither Ross nor Gunplay sound country, nor do they have a southern drawl or accent.

I wasnt aware of Dade County having a particular southern accent that the average person could discern where they are from.

Trick Daddy on the other hand..sounds like a country nicca...

Matter of fact..Ross enunciates his words..

Ross when he isn't trying to be "the boss" is and sounds like a Dade County guy. Gunplay is all the way Dade sounding.

Drake got a Jamaican accent two weeks ago. Last year he was southern.

Have you ever been to Miami? Are you even American?

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

I mean lets be real, y'all ran Iggy out the game for a few who dats and what not but you're okay with aubrey sounding just as cringe-worthy talking bout di man dem ting all out of context like he isn't a jewish canadian.

Any one of you drake stans want to help me,a true born jamaican understand why I shouldn't be offended by this guy making a mockery of jamaican culture like we were when Iggs put the southern twang in her voice?

Because it's been explained like a million times that's how people in the city talk. Jamaican slang = Toronto Street slang. So u have a problem when UK cats do the exact same thing?

Tuck ya feelings in breh. He's just tryna put on for his city folk.

You trying to put drake in the same basket as people with Jamaican roots and you did a shytty job of that too.

All of a sudden after 6-7 years drake is trying to "put on for his city folk" really?That's what you want to go with. All of a sudden.

 

[Jamal514]

If Drake actually grew up around Jamaicans/Carribeans, he would sound more like Boi-1da. Accent sounds natural and not forced.



Drake's "Jamaican accent" is cringeworthy, I hope he keeps that shyt to a minimum on VFT6

 

[NigerianDonDada]

nikkas ain't even let Snoop get a pass with that shyt
