I'm looking for a good quality recording of someone reciting the Lord's prayer in ebonics. Here it is if you wish to see:
Big Daddy's Rap
Yo, Big Daddy upstairs
You be chillin
So be yo hood
You be sayin' it, I be doin' it
In this here hood and yo's
Gimme some eats
And cut me some slack
Sos I be doin' it to dem dat dis me
Don't be pushin me into no jive
And keep dem Crips away
Cause you always be the Man " G "
Straifgt Up
If anyone can find a recording, or do one them self please post it :)

Lol maybe thats not a bad idea since I'm getting tired of hearing the lord's word in 16th century old english...Do ppl really think they were running around the middle east 2000yrs ago using words like "thy?"
Sure, let's push Standard English a little farther into the background. Great idea.
I love that.
