Oddly enough, I was making a playlist for a friend's bday over the weekend, which in the process led to an unplanned Mama's Gun deep dive. Btw, are these characters American or from the UK? Wasn't 100% sure bc of their verbiage.

What was your first thought regarding where they’re from?

"With your avoidant ass" says America - especially bc the spelling, but mandem says here. So I'm not sure either way tbh.

Lol, they were British in my mind. Perhaps, if this wasn’t just a quick draft, I’d go in and edit the spelling to make it more obvious. But also af-am vernacular is popularised across the diaspora - it’s a term me and my friends have used in the past, despite being British. But I guess the mind will receive it how it wants to.

Definitely. All subjective where art's concerned.
