Key Grammar Structures
-
He don't need a reason, he a young nigga.
➔ Subject‑verb agreement (third‑person singular) and zero copula
➔ The verb "don't" should be "doesn't" for a third‑person singular subject, and "he" needs the copula "is" ("he is a young nigga").
-
I can't help but feeling like I am the one.
➔ "Can't help but + gerund" construction
➔ After "can't help but" the verb must be in the gerund form: "feeling" not "feel".
-
I know Jay Stone and Cobby Supreme could relate.
➔ Modal verb "could" for possibility
➔ "Could" here means "would be able to" or "might" – it shows a possible ability to relate.
-
When he pull up in a Phantom.
➔ Simple present used for future/habitual actions
➔ In informal speech the present tense "pull" can refer to a future event: "When he pull up…" = "When he pulls up…".
-
I got a team in my bank.
➔ "Have got" for possession
➔ "Got" here is not the past of "get" but part of the idiom "have got" meaning "own".
-
We all in here, we all in here.
➔ Ellipsis of the verb "to be" (zero copula)
➔ The sentence omits "are": "We all **are** in here". In informal speech the copula is often dropped.
-
He gon' have that shit blastin'.
➔ "Going to" future (colloquial contraction "gon'")
➔ "Gon'" is a spoken reduction of "going to". The sentence means "He is going to have that shit blastin'."
-
I'm a master of my fate, I'm the type of nigga on the masters of my tape.
➔ Copular "be" + noun phrase (identity)
➔ The structure "I'm a master" uses the copular verb "be" to equate the subject with a noun phrase, expressing identity.
