Description
Black Boys Flyys (BBF) reads like sociology meets pop culture. The marriage between music, particularly hip hop music and society woes paralleled. The conversational style of writing pulls you into the dialog as if you were in your local barber shop or salon with a group of your tightest friends. The humor, wit and sometime sarcasm would make you giggle or flat our laugh aloud. All the while making you think. Grab a pen and paper as you read, BBF. It offers tons of references that will peak your curiosity to delve deeper. Reminisce of lyrics of yesteryears bring warm nostalgia~Ceasar Mason
The ‘Black Boys Flyy’ reader is the high school/college age black male, 15-23. The message even expands to black men in there 30s. While the book’s message can resonate with any hip-hop head of any race, but as Chris Rock stated, “When you're white, the sky's the limit. When you're black, the limit's the sky.” So, no, white teenagers weren’t at the forefront when I penned this book.
He is the teenager who listens to rap music all day, every day, but has to turn it off when his parents come home, or when riding in their car. He’s the young man who struggles to reconcile that his mother twerks to the same music he nods to. He’s the black boy in a white class who likes his hip-hop in private so no one attaches stereotypes to him. He’s the aspiring dope boy who latched on to the wrong message. He’s the college bound kid who needs hip-hop’s braggadocios rhymes to affirm that he’s worthy of his Harvard scholarship. He’s the college grad who’s accumulated student loan debt and moved back in with his parents as he struggles to figure out where he went wrong.~ Author Jamal Fortune
