Key Grammar Structures

• Hadn't been charged.

  ➔ Past Perfect Passive (Contracted)

  ➔ This is a contraction of "had not been charged." The "Past Perfect Passive" tense indicates an action that was completed before another action or point in the past, with the subject being the receiver of the action. Here, it implies the speaker "had not been charged" with a crime before some implied past event.

• I took my roof off At the red light.

  ➔ Phrasal Verb

  ➔ The phrase "took my roof off" uses the phrasal verb "take off," which means to "remove" something. In this context, it refers to removing the convertible top of a car. Phrasal verbs combine a verb with a preposition or adverb, often creating a meaning different from the individual words.

• I need mine off the top, uh.

  ➔ Idiomatic Expression

  ➔ The idiom "off the top" means to take a share or cut immediately from a total amount, often implying a profit or a portion removed before distribution. It suggests getting one's desired portion first.

• Ain't no fuckboys allowed.

  ➔ Informal Double Negative / Colloquialism

  ➔ "Ain't no" is an informal, non-standard English construction. It functions as a double negative but is used colloquially to emphasize "there are no" or "there aren't any." In standard English, it would be "There are no fuckboys allowed."

• When it come to bitches I'm Gucci.

  ➔ Informal Subject-Verb Agreement / Idiomatic Expression

  ➔ In informal speech, "come" is sometimes used instead of "comes" for third-person singular subjects ("it comes"). The phrase "When it come to..." means "regarding" or "when discussing a particular topic." "I'm Gucci" is an idiom meaning "I'm good," "I'm all set," or "I'm fine," implying confidence and success.

• I'm 'bout to go ape in the trap.

  ➔ Informal Contraction / Idiomatic Expression

  ➔ "'Bout to" is an informal contraction of "about to," meaning "going to" or "on the verge of." The idiom "go ape" means to become extremely angry or excited, often to the point of acting wildly or erratically.

• Wrist in the water I need me a boat.

  ➔ Colloquial Pronoun Usage

  ➔ In informal or colloquial English, "need me a" is a common construction meaning "I need a" or "I need for myself a." The reflexive pronoun "me" is used for emphasis or to make the statement sound more personal and direct.

• All she want Is good dick and advice.

  ➔ Informal Subject-Verb Agreement Omission

  ➔ In standard English, the verb for a third-person singular subject ("she" or "All she") should be "wants." The omission of the "-s" in "want" is a common feature of some informal dialects and speech patterns.

• I kinda do bag dimes.

  ➔ Informal Adverb / Slang Term

  ➔ "Kinda" is an informal shortening of "kind of," meaning "somewhat" or "to some extent." "Bag dimes" is slang, often used in a drug dealing context, referring to packaging or selling small quantities ("dimes") of drugs.
