User:Benmite/Blaccent

A blaccent (a portmanteau of black and accent) is the accent associated with the use of African-American Vernacular English (AAVE). It is typically used disparagingly to describe the use of AAVE by non-black people, which is considered a form of cultural appropriation. In the late 2010s and early 2020s, it became prominently associated with non-black media figures such as rapper Iggy Azalea and actress Awkwafina.
