Its called Eubonics, and many, many people talk like that.  And these are 
people who have plenty of schooling, or they are also working class.  Or they 
are talking like that because it is cool.  My cousin is getting a college 
education, and he is very bright, but he talks like that because all of his 
friends talk like that.  Its part of his culture.  Maybe its different on the 
east coast, but I hear people talking like that on a daily basis...even some 
of my friends.  Its all good, honey.
