In this chapter, I examine and compare the communicative behaviour of three groups – Dance Boys, Fly Eights and Cash Money Brothers. I clarify how patterns of speech among these groups can be understood as linguistic styles and how they differ across the groups. Following Eckert (1989, 2000), I define linguistic style as a combination of a particular set of linguistic features distinguishing social groups. In explaining how styles are created, I draw on Kallmeyer and Keim (2003:30) who suggest
