    Idiots. Her hair isnt straightened. Her bangs are but the rest of her hair is natural.

    I'd imagine that she straightened the bangs due to the hair shrinkage issue with natural hair. If the bangs are that short when they are straightened, then they must be non-existent when it is natural.

    Anyway, let that girl cook.

    I'm gonna be real for a minute, and just say her point is ? . Because she's wearing a "White" hair style in that video to start. Black women wear weaves left and right to get "that look". So it's comical how self-righteous some get when others do the same with cornrows, etc. If anything, this is a good thing because finally Black standards of beauty are becoming the norm. It already is with Black men, which is why White dudes are shaving their heads, and been copying our fashion styles for years. So why chastise White women for thinking Black hair styles looks good. This is ? progession.

    At the end of the day, what does she and other like Banks want? Do they want White people NOT to embrace Black culture? Does she realize how different things are just the last 20 years or so for Black women in terms to how society views them. I swear this young "activists" don't know ? about the World.

    I gotta agree with this part at least. Do we want white folks to stop imposing their European standards of beauty on us or do we want them to stop trying to look like us aka following our standards?

    This is a good thing, black hair styles are popular.

    Maybe stop buying Asian hair if this culture vulture thing is an important issue.

    Exactly. For decades people have dissed black hair styles, and now that they'e getting accepted, some want to complain about? I don't get it. It would be like Asian people getting upset that White & Black people embrace their culture like martial arts and yoga.

    Azelia Banks doesn't even date Black guys, so I'm not sure why people reference her opinion.

    White ARE cultural vultures, but so is everyone else. Asian guys are walking around like cowboys, WuTang thinks their Samurai warriors, and you have Beckys twerking in the suburbs.

    My question is.....so what? Again, how can this chick rock a White hairstyle and then complain about White's rocking a Black one?

    Is this something that only black people are allowed to do? Because I loved the fact Wu Tang had the ancient Chinese martial arts angle. But if I try and get cornrows or 360 waves (done that before, they looked sick) I'm a vulture?

    Is Katy Perry serious with that video?

    Smh.

    Good drop, she took something that can be complex and broke it down to where it can really be understood.

    There is no such thing as "black culture" guys, it belongs to everyone, culture has no color
