Donna Briggs tries so hard to run from it but all I hear is a sista 😂 especially in the way she says “ spectacular”.

Barry white is a good example of this when it comes to tone. I don’t think a non black person could replicate that type of tone

That's why we say "I hear my people but I don't see my people"

and talking white is a vocal and tone/inflection thing too!!! Nothing about intellect

Even black women with soft voices have a warmth in their tone that is still unique to black people

I say this all the time! Barack Obama speaks proper but with your eyes closed you’d know that was a black man by the tone of his voice.

I can almost 100% of the time identify when I’m speaking with a Black person over the phone no matter how they speak. I know the sound of Blackness

Southern whites have a similar tone however, they have their own phrases and slang

YESSS ALSO with British people too!! They’ll have the same exact accent but with the black Brits you can hear the black richness in their voice. Same with black Americans doing a “white” corporate voice lol

✨ none of this is real :
Yes! The natural black voice is heavier and from the chest. Rarely is it ever a head or throat voice.

Mind you, cosplayers can’t grasp the regional accents that combine with tone. They’ve all adopted one general one that sounds like a mix between Georgia & Florida. I can always clock it

Madi <3 :
i think white people tend to “talk thru their nose”, it’s more nasal — sound literally comes from a higher point in the throat
