This paper is an attempt to explain the pronominal apposition construction in AAVE based on the Multiple Sphere Hypothesis suggested in Im (2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009) as well as the Merge principle suggested in van Gelderen (2006). We argue that the noun phrase followed by the pronominal subject is not moved from inside the sentence but base-generated as a topic by 3D-Merge in Ω-sphere and the Specifier Incorporation Principle. The simultaneous Merge in three spheres guarantees the licensing of the topic phrase and the pronominal subject without causing the locality problem.
