What's up with El Jefe's Accent?

[KennethC]

<p>I just listened to the audio posted from the Hideout's Monday show in which they paid tribute to Freda Sorce and their friendship with Don &amp; Mike:</p><p><a href="http://www.savefile.com/files/8286315" target="_blank"><font size="2">http://www.savefile.com/files/8286315</font></a></p><p>While I thought the show was quite moving and very well done, I was struck by El Jefe's fake Long Island accent. Since when does a&nbsp;Mexican kid from Grand Prarie, Texas start talking like Fat Tony from &quot;All the Wild Horses?&quot; Has anyone else noticed this? I hadn't heard their show since they moved to Orlando, but I never noticed his thick counterfeit dialect before. Stern's the obvious model, but there were other times it sounded almost&nbsp;Cumia-esque. At one point he even pulled out a positively Benningtonian, &quot;I'm not gonna lie to you.&quot; </p>

yep... I never thought he was trying to do an LI voice, though... just always seemed like he was putting on a fake &quot;radio voice.&quot; It always struck me as kinda awkward (especially next to Dubs' low-key natural sounding delivery).

Exactly, I used to notice this every once in a while and after
listening to this show it reminded me of how odd it was.&nbsp; He tends
to drift in and out of the NY accent every once in a while, I'de assume
he picked it up from Stern as well.&nbsp; As for the Benningtonian, I
too am guilty of throwing these out every now and then like a hack,
luckily where I live no one ever picks up on 'em.<br />

Has anyone else noticed how eerily similar El Jefe's and My name is Phil's voices sound?<br />

Could just be something with the mp3 I'm listening too...</font></p>

Maybe Dubs can try for a Whatleyesque delivery

[j3lehane]

It's cool to hear him morphing and growing as an artist.I also imitate voices,and it's like living vicariously,acting,doing a role,trying on a different style,new hat,new personality like a mocking bird.Maybe it's not original,but it's opening up,trying out "characters",accents,points of view.It's awkward as a listener to hear the voice-cracking mister puberty fakeness of pretense and role-playing,like hearing a bad coverband.But,it shows that Jefe is stretching his pud as an artist,so he's working it up into a lather.Posturing,maybe...experimenting,absolutely.
