Whip my hair

"Washington Redskins cheerleaders dance during a timeout against the San Francisco 49ers at FedEx Field on November 6, 2011 in Landover, Maryland. The San Francisco 49ers won, 19-11."

Being born and raised in Baltimore, I grew up with hip-hop musical influences. Still listen to a lot of it, too.

There is no denying that a little Kanye West and Jay-Z doesn't pump you up before an assignment.

With that in mind, after shooting some cheerleader frames during the Redskins game last weekend I couldn't get the hook of this song out of my head: "I whip my hair back-and-forth. I whip my hair back-and-forth."

Funny that pop culture always seems to get ingrained in our brains whether we want it to or not.
