This is the only Akon song that I really enjoy listening to. Not that he doesn’t have a totally unique voice, but his other songs are way too pop. This one has a deeper meaning and it’s with India Arie.
Good hair means curls and waves
Bad hair means you look like a slave
At the turn of the century
Its time for us to redefine who we be
You can shave it off
Like a South African beauty
Or get in on lock
Like Bob Marley
You can rock it straight
Like Oprah Winfrey
If its not what’s on your head
Its what’s underneath
