-There is no "Brooklyn" accent.
-If lil Wayne came to NY to "order food", we would know he's not from around here.
-Maybe this "Mistaken for a.." is one sided?
-Have you ever been to New York?
I'm going to have to disagree. I've been to both New York and New Orleans.
New Orleans is a funny city. There are some from New Orleans with thick drawls and then there are natives that do indeed sound like New Yorkers. I have indeed mistaken a New Orleans native for a New Yorker. Lil Wayne would be included in the thick drawl category.
As far as a Brooklyn accent well. People who were born and raised on Manhattan sound different from those from Brooklyn or New Jersey.
