For any of you who missed the coronation of "Martin Louis the King Jr.," formerly known as "The Louis Vuitton Don," Stylelist posted the video a few weeks ago. One thing you might have noticed about the new Kanye West in the video is a vaguely familiar hairdo -- one that showed up again this week at the Grammys. What do they call it again? Oh yeah -- the mullet. Only the most despised and berated hairstyle on planet earth, popularized in the 80's by pro-wrestlers and other goons. Kanye, on the other hand is a very fashionable guy. What gives?This is probably a good time to re-evaluate when and where it's appropriate to spot a mullet. For at least a decade and a half, the appropriate time to wear a mullet has been never (not even at a drunken frat party with a 'white trash' theme).
Does Kanye think the world of coif is trending toward another mullet-friendly era? Or is he just trying to force a second golden age for the maligned haircut?
We fully recognize that Kanye is by no means one of the worst mullet offenders, what he's really got is a pre-mullet -- but a mullet is a mullet and most big problems start out as small ones. What do you think? Do Kanye need an intervention, or does he know what he's doing?
| Immediately if not sooner! This 'do is DONE. | |

| No way -- he's got a unique style, and it's working for him. | |
| Probably, but I hope they don't. I really want to see where this goes. |
