Your question made me smile.
People from Northern Haiti have the most noticeable accent.
The accent is in their tone of voice, in the way they say their Haitian creole pronouns, and also in the way they end their words and sentences.
People from South of Haiti will sometimes have a variance in their choice of words to describe an item.
And ,there is what you call "Kreyòl rèk". Kreyòl rèk (with no French influence) is spoken usually deep in the outskirts of Haiti by people who have no knowledge of the French language at all. Some Creole words, then, will be so blunt and expletive that you'd want to run for cover (just kidding!). Yes, the verbage can be explicit at times. Granmoun lontan, who were not educated in French, know the best Creole.
