"Why's he talking like a black guy?"

[Numero001]

Right, I had this big convo the other day with some older white people. We were talking about some white guy, aged about 20/21, talking in slang.Side A: "Its just the way us youngers talk. He isn't tryna sound like a black boy, you pick it up like anything."Side B: "He's a creep around black people." "He most probably practices at home." "Its the cool thing now, they'll most probably regret speaking like this in years to come"My question to you is, does language have a colour in 09? Is it just how people talk now or do we still consider it as beggin? How about if its the other way around, if a black person speaks like a white guy, is he tryna beg white people?

i get annoyed when white people make comments like this to me.you know them 1s where they are looking for a blackie to cosign there argument that so and so is trying to be black.this results in me facepalming

[Ephren Taylor]

Cant please everyone..More often than not, I speak like ive never been to the 'ends' and people have an issue with it..Personally, if it makes you feel comfortable, or get whatever point accross that you were trying to make, then speak how you like.

[revs]

I dont speak with much slang, one girl even said i talk posh smh, my mum just raised me correct u dig"talking black" is a dumb statement, africans beg patois and bred of jamo words but that is acceptable?it all comes down to wanting to be cool and Jamaican culture is the epitome of this

[Taurus]

My mate from Leicester always says stuff like 'Look at that d*ck he thinks hes black' if hes wearing a New Era and say 'safe' and 'ya get me'.Back in the day this was just the word for it, cos only black people done these activities, then the white kids starting integrating and copying these antics and now its even imo.
