Quit yo Jibber-jabber, I pity the fool!
Based on Mr. T (born Laurence Tureaud), an American actor most known for his role as B. A. Baracus in the 1980s television series The A-Team.
While reading National Geographic Mr. T first noticed the unusual hairstyle (for which he is now famous) on a Mandinka warrior. He decided that adoption of the style would be a powerful statement about his African origin. It was a simpler, safer and more permanent visual signature than his gold chains, rings, and bracelets.
