sorry but the Keisha Cole is a tad hoodratish lol

not racial but still stereotypical - If a male cares about their hygiene they are gay.

She is lil hood, but I never seen her do anything screams hoodrat. I never her bragging about smoking weed, popping pills, love being rude and messy, etc. I can see why they see her mother and sister that way. When she went with Jeezy that was more typical hood rat move. You know the stereotype that hoodrats only fool with drug dealers.

Any woman of color who wears blonde hair or contacts want to be white. All natural hair blacks are afrocentric and forceful with their believes especially being anti relaxer. all women who wear weaves, wigs, or relaxers are fake or self hating.

that black people only wear air jordans, timberland boots, and air force ones.

All black girls overdo it on the in your face name brand labels and mixing up too many labels. This is a real stereotype that only blacks only know designer labels such as Gucci, Louis Vuiton, Prada, Fendi, Manolo Blahnik, and Christian Louboutins. Other designers such as Burberry, and Dolce & Gabbana. I commented as Real on this article.

LOL, it crazy I see many whites wear New Balance sneakers alot, I'm not making a generalization. Anyways, last time I sneaker shop was in 2009 & 2010. Since 2007, I was anti-wearing Air Force ones because it was so common. I gave my brother a hard time when he pursueD me to buy those black Air Forces with the bubblegum bottoms. In 2009, I started researching different kind brands of sneakers because I DIDN'T WANT TO BE TYPICAL & WEAR BUT JORDANS, AIR FORCES, NIKE DUNKS, & NIKE BLAZERS. NO DISRESPECT FOR THOSE WHO DO. DON'T GET WRONG, THEY ARE CLEAN BUT THEY ARE NOT FOR ME.

I love AF1s but HATE most of the new releases. The quality is so bad, theyre even worse than Payless shoes. I mostly only like the older AF1s made before 2003 (or 2006 if theyre patent leather).

Don't get mem wrong, I will still wear some Nikes, but I will try go for alternative or vintage (in good condition) Nikes. I like The Retro Kidz the Nike High Tops they were wearing. I mostly like Heydays, C.R, Puma Suede, Puma Classic Round High Tops, Greedy Genuis, Radii, and Puma Sky (High tops). Me, personally I'm not anti-establishment or whatever. I'm add an unique or classic spin on my style whether it a top, hairstyles, or shoes. I just avoid from looking "too typical" or wear common brands every body & their momma wears.
