    What is with her hair?

Why she might not be annoying:

    The ArchAndroid was very-well reviewed upon it's release.
    She got her big break after she met Big Boi from OutKast and he eventually told Diddy about her.
    She dances like James Brown.
    She said that she was influenced by such things as Stevie Wonder, the score from 'Goldfinger' and, unsurprisingly given her connection with Big Boi, OutKast.
    She says that her style of dress is a tribute to her parents. Her father worked as a garbage truck driver, her mother had a job as a janitor and her stepfather had a mail-related job.
    She is a proponent of individuality.
