The Mt. Rushmore of Music Hairstyles

C.B. Jones
Hair is a very touchy subject in modern society. People who have it are often ridiculed and judged harshly by those who lost theirs years ago. Call it jealousy, call it wisdom on behalf of elderly, nonfunctional hair follicles. I prefer to call it annoying.

Contrary to what some celebs would like you to believe, not all of them are "just like everybody else". That couldn't be farther from the truth. Some of them are pod people, with impressive manes. This article is in celebration of the best of the best skull wool in the world of music.

Busta Rhymes.
Before cutting his hair, Busta Rhymes was in possession of one of the worlds most powerful dreadlocks. Not only could it latch onto to rails and nearby tree limbs, it also had kung-fu grip! The day Mr. Rhymes cut his luxurious locks was the same day Hip Hop really died. It's more than just some silly coincidence.

Elvis Presley.
Why did Elvis get so much credit for rock and roll in his day? Some of it was the actual talent he possessed, but a good part of it was due to his slicked back hairdo. Allegedly 40 gallons of grease was used to make Presley's hair juuuuuuuusst right for one concert. At the end of the night, his hair was ringed out, and the grease was often used to fry up bananas to go with his routine peanut butter sandwiches.

Mr T.
He's a legend with only two albums. both Mr. T's Commandments, and Be Somebody were released in 1984. despite how unlistenable his musical styling were, The charisma that is Mr. T shined through. Anyone who can pull off the mo hawk without looking like a doofus should get more than a few mulligans to work with in life.

Without a doubt, the absolute best hair in music is perched atop the head of R.E.M. front man, Micheal Stipe. His Phantom Mullet is so epic in it's malevolence, the mere sight of one strand will cause mere mortals to go blind. You should all bask in it's invisabilness, and appreciate that which you cannot see.

There are many unknown knowns in this world. Phantom Mullet ranks right up there with alien abductions, Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game and the mutant-zombie squirrels that lurk outside my house at midnight. While no solid video proof has surfaced to support any of these events, these occurrences are still seen as being actual to a lot of people.
