Depends on who I'm talking to.

Most of the time, I think I speak standard english pretty much without an accent.

SOMETIMES I do a New York accent, like i'll say cawfee or something, but that's pretty rare, and usually like, one word.

With my peoples I sometimes have a black slang accent. Might through in a SPanish word every once in a while.

I have been knwon to do a semi-southern bit too, lol. And when upset it's straight Jamaican. Good accent for cussing somebody out.
