Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Hip-hopâs favorite poet and Grammy Awardâwinning artist J. Ivy bares his soul in this inspirational memoir of pain transformed into healing and empowerment.
J. Ivy is a true pioneer and trendsetter whoâs bridged the worlds of hip-hop and poetry through his appearances on HBOâs Def Poetry and his collaborations with Kanye West and Jay-Z. But throughout his success, he carried with him the pain of being abandoned by his father and growing up in the tough neighborhoods of Chicagoâs South Side.
So he sat down with pen and paper and processed his pain the only way he knew howâthrough poetry. The resulting poem, Dear Father, became his vehicle of forgiveness and healing. It is a pivotal poem that has touched and inspired the lives of millions.
Fused with his signature raw lyricism and street consciousness, J. Ivyâs memoir shows what it takes to deal with your emotions before your emotions deal with you. His story is personal yet universal, and will inspire others to channel whatever pain they have experienced into their own powerful gift of expression.
