A lot of you immigrants do the same thing.

Your grandparents and parents don’t talk like us and you shouldn’t either.

It’s not a blaccent.

Brown skinned people have millions of dialects.

It’s specific to black American hood culture, the people yall hate just as much as they do.

Probably moreso.

I think this one is more situational.

Some black immigrants are obviously faking it, but the difference with nonblacks and black people is that complete cultural integration is possible for the black immigrant. For example, Lots of jamaicans in new york have 100% integrated and mixed culturally to the extent that AAVe is natural to them. Same could be said for Brits like 21savage or africans like Wale who were immediatley transplanted in the hood as children. Same could be said for the ocean of Belizians who founded them selves in south central in the 80s and 90s.

who exactly do you expect them to sound like if they were raised in black neighborhoods?:gucci:

a child of a black immigrants from any country raised in NYC will sound like a new yorker anywhere they go to because thats the speech/language that's communicated with everyone in their community.

Lies. When they get with their people, they codeswitch right on in. That is not their real accent.

And they put extra sauce on it around wp, don't think we ain't notice. :ufdup:

People that’s been living here since the 80s and before is one of us whether they like it or not

I don’t even think about them when making my comments

I’m strictly talking about these weird blacks that have been coming since 00.
