This book hits on the most sensitive topics that our pop culture won't deal with concerning young people. It starts with the crisis in the HIP-HOP Music Craze and its devastating, negative effects on today's young people. It strikes at the hearts of our young people who have lost their way and gives them another perspective on how to change their lives for the better.
No home with young people should be without a copy!

On Oprah's Schools in Crisis show - 2006, it stated that at least 75% of all young, African-Amrericans in prison are illiterate and dysfunctional. It would be nice to prevent them from going into the system in the first place by educating their minds before they are lost to a life of crime forever.
