Him Wolf in Sheep's Cloting
I have on a number of occasions heard someone say, "It's weird to see a white dude with dreadlocks."
What's funny is, having spent my fair share of time with Rastafarians, during the time I played in reggae bands, I never once heard that complaint. If a white dude became a Rasta, the Rastas loved it. What they didn't like at all was anyone, black or white, who wore dreadlocks as a fashion statement. "Him wolf in sheep's cloting, man," was the common description.
Just thought I'd let you know.

Whoa. What I want to know is, did you wear dreadlocks?
ReplyDeleteNo man. Me a crazy baldhead.
