<p>Wale took to Instagram to share the news of his aesthetic departure. &quot;Man idk what I'm doin but I know I need to make changes .. find my happiness , could this be phase one?&quot; he wrote. Basically, Wale is in the midst of an existential crisis and wonders if changing his hair will change his life. We, too, consider a drastic hair change when we're going through it, so this is incredibly relatable. Wale noted that<b> Issa Rae</b> suggested he opt for a change.&nbsp;</p> <p>This is probably the biggest hair news in hip-hop since <b>The Weeknd</b> rid himself of his anthropomorphic pineapple.&nbsp;We can't wait to see what his new hair will look like!</p>
