I don't think tone of voice really makes any difference outside of like music or something where it is the focal point

Isn't all of this associate with someone's demeanor rather than their voice tho? People voices doesn't necessarily change but more so their demeanor and the way they choose to conduct themselves in that setting at that given time.

Well, what do YOU think lew?

part of me thinks its limiting because if you approach everysituation with that urban tone you are going to get profiled

but

the other part of me belives that some ppul find it refreshing and a break from the  pinched nosed valley mess so many others try to put forth
