PA is rural...not "****ry" like Maryland...with plantations and all. And when I say Maryland, I'm talking about places like Upper Marlboro and Brandywine, and not even the Eastern Shore. Besides, most black people in Philly have never been west of KOP.

PA is hillbilly heaven right outside of Philly. Pittsburgh blacks are country and hickish too. You can trick me with your trickery slim. I know PA and Philly like the back of mind hand. Ask someone from Philly to say words like Ocean and Motion and Lotion. They say oooooshin; moe-shin; low-shin. That's **** sound country to me cause I also lived in Brooklyn. Most NYers think Philly is country. (Well at least in BK) where i stayed.

I just posted about 5 videos with people who are from DC that have the DC accent and know the DC way of how we do things. All this other bamma stuff is irrelevant. You and Bajan (Melwood) are not qualified to speak about DC. BTW: Philly is slower than DC.
And you're not qualified to call other people country when yall about the same. D*ck riding. Why I got to be d*ck ryding to point that you guys are not much different from VA or NC? Face it. You couldn't even ask the question. You just keep saying off brand but clearly they sounfd about the same as the videos you posted.

I bet you think because you are from CT that you are in-tune with NYC. NYC cats laugh at CT all day long. CT is just like NC but with a northern accent. It's all wack.
