When Jason Clarke was tapped to play Ted Kennedy in the new drama Chappaquiddick — about the 1969 car crash that left Kennedy's young passenger Mary Jo Kopechne dead at the bottom of a pond — the Australian actor's first order of business was to perfect the late senator's distinct Massachusetts drawl.

Mr. Gentry was the clean-cut, smooth-singing complement to Eddie Montgomery's thicker drawl on songs like "My Town," a Southern rock-influenced tale of rural life, and "Something to Be Proud Of," the military-themed personal-pride anthem that was one of the duo's two No. 1 Billboard country songs.
Enter Bachelorette contestant Tyler C., whose hilariously awkward Flashdance audition tape gave us a taste of just what a goofball he is way back when, but whose chiseled good looks and slow drawl have sometimes distracted from his acerbic wit and great sense of humor (Tyler C. is a model, after all).
As a corollary, politicians found fertile ground with the cowboy motif while everyone insisted it was a dead letter; Ronald Reagan, son of suburban Illinois, wearing a cowboy hat and affecting a slight drawl wasn't an accident, not any more than George W. Bush's pretending to be a just-folks ranch hand was.
She sings with a calming but powerful drawl on songs like the breezy "Only Loving You" and the woozy "Lower 9 Valentine," which is a love letter to the neighborhood where she recorded the LP. This is modest and no-frills country music, but it packs a punch in its affecting simplicity.
It's the desire to stay close to Sadie that finally prompts Jimmy to recruit his bartender brother Clyde (Adam Driver, speaking with a delightfully slow drawl), an Iraq War vet with a prosthetic arm; and their sister Mellie (Riley Keough), a hairdresser with a taste for fast cars; to take part in the caper.
An unapologetic populist with a deep liberal streak who talks bluntly about helping the poor and taking on powerful interests like oil and gas, he delivers his message in a thick Southern drawl and has been careful not to associate himself too closely with Democrats like Mrs Clinton and Barack Obama that would be polarising in Louisiana.
That's not to say that the sneering, outspoken Hooky fans have come to know is no more: That fellow very much remains, there in the voluptuous Mancunian drawl of his "ponk" rock recollections, and in the mischievous grin and twinkling eyes that punctuate the astute, if often unfiltered, thoughts he gleefully doles out in both conversation and his writing.
Best Verse: Meek MillOverall Grade: B+ Now that I'm hearing Young Dro and Rich Homie Quan on a track together for the first time, it strikes me that they're really kindred spirits from different generations of Atlanta rap, both possessing a nonchalant drawl that almost makes it too easy to overlook how sharp their writing is.
Dr. Ibrahim, who is 39 and speaks with a drip of Tennessee drawl, said that as he worked on victim after victim early Sunday morning, he was surrounded (as usual) by colleagues with ties to other parts of the world — nurses of Asian and Hispanic descent, technicians from Jamaica, and members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.
The last record from The Voidz featured one semi-acceptable song, "Leave It In My Dreams"—mostly by virtue of it leaning directly into that infamous lazy drawl of Casablancas, the one where it sounds like he's been left drying out and day-drinking in the sun—while the rest of that album resembled a mechanical headache.

In his dry, disaffected drawl, Spade read from a script in which he called himself the winner of an Ellen DeGeneres look-alike contest; he fiddled with a "Bachelor"-esque rose and said his new show will "make you thorny"; and he did a generally poor job of trying to hide his disdain for the ritual.
" Ms. Hawkins, who grew up as an attentive listener to what she called her family's "unimprovable" oral histories, wrote more than 20 books of fiction, nonfiction, poetry and impressionist monologues, which she delivered in her West Texas drawl while touring with the folk singer Rosalie Sorrels and the singer and guitarist Terry Garthwaite, all billed simply as "Three Women.
A renowned private detective named Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig, with a syrupy Southern drawl) arrives to help law enforcement determine if his death was, in fact, the suicide it appears to be, or the work of one of his family members — each of whom is revealed, over the course of the film, to have reason to kill him.
Mr. Gallin may have worked on the business end of show business, but he was arguably his own best creation, an unapologetic bon vivant with a spiky mop of dark hair, black glasses and, as a native of Brooklyn, that borough's signature drawl, which friends like Sarah Jessica Parker and Andy Cohen mimicked to great effect.
Her success has stemmed from her undeniable skillset as a vocal coach, but also from her proximity to rising talent: In this music capital, the coach with the southern drawl and the nurturing but forceful persona has found herself in the orbit of artists such as Usher, Rob Thomas, Young Jeezy, and a few reality stars.
He's not a sex object in any rock-conventional sense — his flat nasal everyman drawl suggests an adolescent dreamer trying on different poses, moving from costume to costume, trying to emulate his favorite role models on the posters in his bedroom, which explains the confounding array of genres that the Killers have tinkered with and the unity of their overall project.
Their two voices blend beautifully, with his reedy Texas warble layering with her twangy Kentucky drawl, and the visual aspect is unbeatable: the Redheaded Stranger's braids have gone gray, the mountain girl's still arrayed in one of her trademark lacey confections, and there's a very real warmth in these old friends' faces as they trade lines, eyes sparking, voices rising in harmony.
"We had 85033 years of, in my views, consistently wrong predictions about everything from weapons of mass destruction, to Terri Schiavo, to raising inflation, to base currencies, to no one would sign up [and] ObamaCare would wreck the economy, you know, the deficit is going to kill us all," the 71-year-old Louisiana native says in his signature drawl.
Clinton, now accustomed to speaking to Mr. Hale for a final logistical briefing moments before taking the stage at a major event, faux apologizes to those who cannot make out his Sevier County drawl: Mr. Hale's pronunciation of Chuck Schumer's surname as "Schu-mare" during a pre-event meeting once compelled the New York senator to wonder aloud where Mrs.
Then, before I knew it, I was listening to an American evangelical Christian named Dave Ramsey telling me in his Tennessee drawl that "the borrower is slave to the lender" and that I need to get "gazelle intense" and live on "rice and beans, beans and rice" to get out of debt, be "weird" by having a paid-off house.
In an unhurried drawl, he tells me he was born to nontechie parents in 210; he tended sheep, goats, and pigs at his small middle school outside Washington, DC. Out of curiosity, he taught himself to program on his TI-84 Plus graphing calculator in seventh grade and got into finding bugs in high school, when he discovered an XSS vulnerability on his school's website.
On the drive down from Montgomery, Alabama, he told me in a no-nonsense drawl about a popular football player killed in a car crash with his children, a woman who was eaten by an alligator and whose arm was later found in the autopsy of the animal, and the two girls discovered dead in the trunk of a car whose murders were never solved.
But if you're not a teen in 2018, you may recognize that while Superorganism do sound like no one else new right now, they also have some clear touchstones: the slow drawl of Stephen Malkmus; the who-gives-a-shit attitude of "Drinking In LA"; Beck when he still smoked weed but before he wore wide-brimmed hats; MGMT with the acid but also an iPhone.
Playlist: "Lord Only Knows" / "Sissyneck" / "He's A Mighty Good Leader" / "Hollow Log" / "Blackhole" / "Scarecrow" / "Say Goodbye" Spotify | Apple Music "Loser" was one of those freak tunes that had Beck rapping about "dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose" and getting "crazy with the Cheez Whiz" while sampling a twangy slide guitar and singing "I'm a loser, baby, so why don't you kill me?" in a lazy drawl.
The son of a Tennessee preacher, Mr. Graham, a lawyer with a soft drawl, a habitual cheroot and the steady gaze of a Mississippi riverboat gambler, was a Yale, Vanderbilt and Oxford University scholar who went to Washington in 19901 as chief counsel to Senator Estes Kefauver's subcommittee on constitutional amendments, then served two years as a special assistant to Labor Secretary W. Willard Wirtz.
Though the beats on All Kings Get Their Heads Chopped Off occasionally scan as something that might not be out of place on a mixtape from one of Atlanta's more outré post-trap denizens, he attacks them with the energy, skill, and lyrical flair to go bar for bar with the best rappers from all over the map, his southern drawl shining through no matter how hard he goes.
To avoid being singled out by street mobs or at Klan rallies as a reporter for a Northern newspaper, Mr. Herbers thickened his soft Tennessee drawl, wore the rumpled khaki pants and short-sleeve shirts favored by local white men, sometimes feigned a lack of interest in what was going on, and tried to interview witnesses discreetly and call in his stories from out-of-the way telephones.
Liam Gallagher's drawl replaced with a moneyed whine; a breakdown wedged into the chorus; school-hall riffs—there's a level of sheer belligerence here, one you imagine could make Oasis proud on some level, before realising that if Liam Gallagher were to ever actually hear this, Cartel would get called "a bunch of trust fund kids in eyeliner who need to go outside or kiss a girl" on Twitter, followed by a knockout "AS YOU WERE LG X" blow.
In the kaleidoscopic tidal wave of British rap that's come crashing across both sides of the Atlantic in the past few years—the afro bashment fusion of J Hus or Kojo Funds; the slow drawl of Giggs and Nines; the household names like Stormzy and Skepta—Dave is moving toward becoming a prodigious talent: the kind of artist every person named Dave and their mate should be aware of in the same way they know Kendrick Lamar as Kendrick.
