India Arie was so ahead of her time with this song. This was years before the natural hair movement. She was already promoting people to embrace their natural hair and beauty. She is so beautiful and underrated! She deserves more recognition and we need more artists like her.

"Breast cancer and chemotherapy, took away her crown and glory. She promised God if she were to survive, she would enjoy every day of her life." That puts the entire message of this song into prospective.

This song literally gave me confidence about myself and my natural hair. I got teary eyed listening to it again!

This song was released 14 years before California became the first state the pass the Crown Act, making it illegal for California employers to discriminate or send women employees home based on their natural hair texture and cultural styles.

Smh I swear youtube be attracting really special people. She isn't telling you to go all natural. She is saying whatever choice you do with your hair doesn't determine your character. And she feels someone shouldn't tell you what is a good or bad hair styles.

I saw her in LA a could of weeks after my brother died suddenly on Christmas Day. He was 29. It was so incredibly painful. I was at her show and she came off of the stage, gently moved people out of her way and approached me and gave me the longest warmest hug. It was so beautiful

I remember i went natural in middle school. My hair was very short because I cut off my perm. I was extremely bullied for the way it looked. My bff told her mom and her mom showed me this song. Such a powerful message, I love India Arie !

I am not my hair, I am not this skin, I am the soul that lives within! One of the realist lines I've ever heard.
