Ebonics translators needed by DEA

Ebonics translators needed by DEA to interpret drugs wiretaps - Telegraph

"...You need someone to say I know what they mean when they say 'ballin' or 'pinching pennies'....


...Another DEA official said there was nothing "racial" about the hiring effort, identifying the white rapper Eminem as "one of the best speakers of Ebonics there ever was"

lmfao @ the last statement.

I wonder what Kanye would say when he interupts that shit.

"Tell her like doritos that's Nacho cheese."

My weed smoke is my lye
A ki of coke is a pie
When I'm lifted, I'm high
With new clothes on, I'm fly
Cars is whips and sneakers is kicks
Money is chips, movies is flicks
Also, cribs is homes, jacks is pay phones
Cocaine is nose candy, cigarettes is bones
A radio is a box, a razor blade is a ox
Fat diamonds is rocks and jakes is cops
And if you got rubbed, you got stuck
You got shot, you got bucked
And if you got double-crossed, you got fucked
Your bankroll is your poke, a choke hold is a yoke
A kite is a note, a con is a okey doke
And if you got punched that mean you got snuffed
To clean is to buff, a bull scare is a strong bluff
