My dialect is umm... how do you describe it?

A mix of New York/New Jersey dialect, African-American dialect, and Caribbean English (my family came from the West Indies).

Some people think I sound like a redneck but that's just because they aren't from the south

Been told by multiple yankees (including Hutch's girlfriend) that it was hard to understand me because of my Southern accent.

My dialect and lingo is definitely Southern. My accent has a East Tennessee twang to it. I drag out my "i's". Like niight, riight. One of the things that I do personally is say -dee instead of -day on the names of days. So Mon-dee, Sun-dee, Wednes-dee, etc.

I've been told that my voice has no distinction to hint where I may be from at all. So there's that.

You should be in broadcast. They look for people with no accent.

Northamptonian. Becoming nearer Queen's English at the moment so the foreigners can understand me.

There probably is, or at least a mix. Everyone has an accent of some sort.

Midwestern. I do have a slight "Minnesota accent" but not like the movie Fargo.
