It ain't trickin' unless you got it.
"It ain't trickin' unless you got it."
This phrase is from an advertisement of a clothing company.
"ain't" and "got it" are both grammatically wrong, right? "ain't" should be "isn't", and "got it" should be "get it".
The reason why some people or advertisement use this type of English is that they want to make a saying sounds cool.
These expressions used among African Americans, than other ethnics in usual speak.
Do you think my understanding is right?
Thanks,
