Bryant Gumbel speaks on his son being arrested and police excuses....

[Dr. Acula]

accent is simply annunciation. it's the difference between n!gga and n!gger.

text book annunciation is frowned upon....it's really not his voice as we know chris tucker has a soft voice. it's the accents pronunciations people want to be black specific for mr gumble.

you know how stephen a smith carries himself intelligently....but his annunciations are "black" as in he will say "souf" instead of "south" type of thing.

I'll be honest that I have a similar accent and quite frankly it has played against me when doing phone interviews and then I go in for a in person interview and they see it's a black dude. It's not always or ever advantageous really.

I don't purposefully put it on and it's simply how I learned how to talk from my mother. Unless someone can provide some evidence of him hiding his bass I don't see why people think he is faking.

The coli isn't going to like that Bryant married a white woman after being married for 28 years to a black woman tho.

28yrs with a black woman? That's long enough.

ni!ggas would have hated mike tyson voice in the 80's.

jordan, tyson, mike jackson, gumble all were soft spoken in the 80's.....gumble just didn't put the bass back in his voice. it's a time period/humility thing. yall just wasn't around to understand.

i'm in my late 20's....but the gumble no bass voice wasn't uncommon in the 80s.

.....please tell us more about the 80's

Maybe you are white washed

I question his appropriation of cac culture in his persona

What does this even mean?

 

[At30wecashout]

What does this even mean?

The eternal question To think in a one of my first threads to talked about how I was perceived by other blacks cause of the way I spoke and
what I was into...and posters turned that into *my* problem You really can't win with some people.

 

[Rell84shots]

no....he carries himself with respect....BG never shytted on his ppl...but the "swagged out " nikkas do

I've gotten those vibes from BG, but what Yung Thug said was absolutely fukking embarrassing & pathetic. If he ever gets gunned down by the police we need to all remember this moment from him.

He comes across as white washed

 

[KravenMorehead™]

Is this a double entendre?

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

He comes across as white washed

How?

 

[TEH]

How?

How do I put this ...

He very well may be a real life "Soul Man."

 

[calixprynce]

How?

How is a black man that marries a white woman not considered a c00n to you?

You prolly a c00n or white
