Holler If You Hear Me: Searching for Tupac Shakur
Holler If You Hear Me: Searching for Tupac Shakur | Michael Eric Dyson
3 posts | 3 read | 1 to read
With a new preface by the author. Ten years after his murder, Tupac Shakur is even more loved, contested, and celebrated than he was in life. His posthumously released albums, poetry, and motion pictures have catapulted him into the upper echelon of American cultural icons. In Holler If You Hear Me, "hip-hop intellectual" Michael Eric Dyson, acclaimed author of the bestselling Is Bill Cosby Right?, offers a wholly original way of looking at Tupac that will thrill those who already love the artist and enlighten those who want to understand him.

I inhaled this audiobook! Fascinating, but then considering it was about Tupac and written by MED, I'm not surprised. Hearing about the life of Tupac, and the huge variety of influences, juxtaposed with my recollections of "The Hate You Give," made me reconsider some things. Great, great read.

Just started listening to this, and really, really glad I did. It is fascinating and educational in so many ways. Be warned, though, if you are potty mouth averse. I'm keeping the office door closed and turn it off when someone enters. No hostile work environment accusations for me!😳😱😬
