The very idea of somebody from
Illinois pretending to associate with some other region.
It's an outrage I tell ya!
I remember when Reagan wore black face to speak at the NAACP and started by saying, "Yo! My NigaZ!"
-- Reminds me of Trent Lott's 2002 Kwanzaa message... since removed from the internets but it went:
Waaaaaaaah Zuuuuuuuup? Props to all the homeys and bizzos back at Ole Miss, and a shout out to my D.C. posse.
Seriously, I would like to wish a Meaningful Kwanzaa to my people and join you in introspective confrontation of self and society from December 26th to January 1st in order to begin to receive and reconstruct our history and our lives, rebuilding a more positive image.
Umoja, Kujichagulia, Ujima, Ujamaa, Nia, Kuumba, Imani. Now, with that out of the way...
I mo take this op to lay my swerve on that riff I did at Double-Zero's candle jam. Yo peeps, I was just trippin, doing a buck fifty and just busted a shiz-nits. On the furilla, my niggilla. We was just kickin' it. But, no diggety, my rap was totally wack, nomsayin?
Now let's all slap skin and get down to the hardcore. Don't forget who got the phat pockets, and I'm fixin' to stack you brothers up some serious scrilla scratch. You heard? And all those Senate bee-yotches tryin' to Swazey my ass, ya need to just slow ya roll else we gone knuckle up and I mo bust a cap in yo doggy bone.
Crack another 40 and smoke some kill.

Now
that's an accent. More correctly a dialect.
I ain't no waze tie-erd
LOL
sigh... read the thread, Frank...
Lyrics "I Don't Feel No Ways Tired" by Curtis Burrell, popularized by Rev. James Cleveland
(Chorus)
I don’t feel no ways tired,
I’ve come too far from where I started from.
Nobody told me that the road would be easy,
I don’t believe He brought me this far to leave me.
In the actual speech that isn't truncated by Fox Noise (in a
church, duh) she actually cites the song title before reciting it:
--- word for word, including redundant preposition, and you'll notice the accent
never changes.
That's why the audience starts cheering on the first line, Frank.
They recognize the lyric. Duh
?
Now why do you think Fox Noise would cut off the part that reveals it's a
song lyric, Frank?
Hm?
Say, after that she quotes the Apostle Paul. Is that an "Aramaic accent" she's using then?
You want "accent", just listen to the Chicago-style way she squawks the word "far" (twice). NOBODY in the South pronounces it like that. That's why it stands out -- because the accent normally associated with that dialect is MISSING.
