Hey Guys in this video, I share a brief overview of a little of the history of the true meaning of dreadlocks. Most of us have heard the term dreadlocks derives from one origin story about the white settlers in America calling them dreadlocks because they were perceived to be dreadful. I'm here to tell you, there is much more to the word.
Big Shout out to the legend @BackPack Beatz for providing the vibes. Y'all be sure to show him some love and subscribe as well.

I begged for it and the good brother TP came THROUGH AGAIN with the pure heat and education!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I can't thank you enough for this enlighten ment on my behalf but the overwhelming contribution this is to the dreaded community and the African American community as a whole! We love you, we love your platform, and most importantly we love how we feel in this conscious safe space. Thank you thank you thank you! Blessings my brotha... 🖤❤️💚✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Most people called them dreadlocks before they heard that phase "there is nothing dreadful about my hair". Some old heads call them dreads some call them locks. To each their own. No matter which you have they are beautiful enjoy the journey guys.
I grew up in Jamaica and the stigma with Rastafarianism is 100% there but everyone referred to locs as dreadlocs, nothing negative behind it. Even Bob Marley referred to them as “dreadlocs” ie, “buffalo soldiers, dreadlock rastas.” I didn’t even know the word “dreadlocks” had negative connotations until recently. I’m very happy for this video. I personally like referring to my locs as dreadlocks.
My old Irish granny called them elflocks and said that it was bad luck to untangle them. She said the fae were giving a blessing.
Teach dem brethren! Peace & Blessing ❤️💛💚
I can't get enough of the intro bro
I'm kikuyu and the sad thing is most kikuyus nowadays also don't support the culture of having dreadlocks which is kinda sad and makes it hard for my lock journey too. I've just started like 2 weeks ago and it's so hard since my family doesn't support it.
Correct pronunciation:
You’ve spoke on your liking of the word “Dreadlocks” before and I honestly agree with you. Another dope video💯
As a freeform and because of my
Thank you
To be honest with you im From Kenya and even though the uprising brought independence to this day dreadlocks are viewed in a negative way... still planning to start my own journey though all thanks to you
Very informative, thank you
Honestly, I don't care what people call my hair... I call them freedomlocks, knots and dreadlocks. Some people just call them dreadful bc I'm white, lol.. but that's ok.
Thanx for the education. Now i won't feel bad or try to correct myself if i say it
This is a timeless video. 2 years later, as a first generation American born into a Jamaican family, I'm learning these things as I'm pursuing religious accomodation in the Air Force, trying to grow locs. Love your content brother✊🏾
Thanks for explaining that to us brother.
My grandfather was actually a mau mau (''Leave Leave'' pronounced backwards in Kikuyu, 'Uma')freedom fighter and he had dreadlocks. Guess who has them now?
Comin thru to show love. Keep up the good facts my brotha
Before getting locs I called them dreads or dreadlocks but ive never looked at it as dreadful. Hair is beautiful. Thanks Tp for this video
