The goal with the thesis is to showcase that negative concord (NC) is systematic, with data from music and entertainment in which NC in African American Vernacular English (AAVE) occurs, and use them to show that AAVE is a language of its own. This will be done to ultimately show that the rule of NC in AAVE coexists with the rule of single negation in Standard English (SE), in the brains of AAVE speakers, which would make that AAVE speaker a code-switcher between SE and AAVE, and therefore bilingual.
