Why does Killmonger's hairstyle have such a chokehold on artists

Its easy to do
It looked cool at one time
Its the only other Black hairstyle cacs know of instead of low cuts, afros or locks.

It's the #1 selling hair unit for Black men.

If I had hair and a strong hairline, I'd rock the Killmonger and dye my hair Blonde :mjpls:

Unfortunately, I am bald so I gotta live through my Cyperpunk character who has this style.

I like it because I have dreads. It’s a cool cut. Not too long l, not too short. I hated the boxy fro or the Cesar or waves only in games.

Nagoriyuki, Leroy, Eddy, Master Raven, Deejays new costume are my favorite locs having characters

What game had waves? I don't know any. usually the just bald, cesar, or generic buzz cut that could be used for a white character

Dumb question.

It's lily white people who aren't around black people. They get most of their ideas about black folks from the media, hence while Killmonger cut is so prevalent. Before black panther it was the typical fro and ceasar cut.


Nba 2K is probably the only game that get black haircuts right.

Because Non-Black People are Clueless about Black Hair, and see something THEY "Think Is Cool" and use it.

I've never in my life seen another Breh with that hairstyle.

Plus a lot of Concept artists just copy what they see others doing.


It honestly looks like a gay haircut too.:scust:

When Eddy is released, first thing I'm changing is that cut.

My daughter and I was talking about this hairstyle last week and she was saying it doesn’t exist irl. Now I’ve seen it personally a handful of times, but she hasn’t. So when my son forgot to sleep with his wave cap on, he woke up with an impromptu killmonger look. For the last two days she been calling him generic black male npc.
