Sesame Street - Whip My Hair

Uploaded by evkon711 on Oct 14, 2010

I saw this video from sesame street and was bored at night and thought it needed the willow smith treatment hahaha

From the Sesame Street song "I Love My Hair"

-snip-

In spite of its name and its content, this video and similarly produced videos aren't affiliated in any way with Sesame Street or with Willow Smith. I believe that it was just coincidental that two songs featuring a Black girl speaking positively about her hair were aired almost simultaneously. I think that this particular mash-up video "works" as it helps to promote the Sesame Street "I Really Love My Hair" video. And in so doing, the mash-up video helps to promote the positive message of loving your natural, tightly curled hair, a message that isn't as explicitly given in the Willow Smith video as it is in the Sesame Street video.
