“Damn, bitch, you are TRIPPIN. This does NOT put you in a good light.”
should read:
“Damn, bitch, you be TRIPPIN. This does NOT put you in a good light.”
{subject} be {present participle} implies a one-time or unusual occurrence. Leave the "be" out and it signifies a continuous or customary action.
In BEV, of course, not standard English.
