We moved to Tennessee when we fled California. I find the accent quite pleasant.
I love Tennessee accents (similar to West Virginian). It’s kind of slurry and country and very distinctive. Very different from the Alabama accents I hear all around me.
Southern accents sound like ebonics. Boston accents sound rude. New england in general sounds elitist and evokes images of John Kerry
