A tribe Called Quest - Luck Of Lucien

Everybody is talking about colored and noncolored. At first I thought you guys were talking about the color of your headphones but obviusly you're not. What does colored and noncolored mean?

Well... Im a noob with any hardwear that has to do with music. All I got are these old, ear pad faded, cord tangled pos Jensens that were like $5 and they turn my beautiful music into dog ****. Can someone recomend me some good cans even poor people can buy and tell me what stores I can find...
