Nah, it just don’t let you rep the same person twice in a short span.

No sweat tho, I’ll give you a bigger list. Check out aalbc.com too they got a list too. If you need help getting the books let me know. I figure you in LA, you can link up with Esowon in Leimert Park they work with the same Black owner distributor that we do at Sankofa.

That’s how it be. I ain’t know about Sankofa until years later, but my cousins practically grew up in that spot because they parents was in the conscious community.

I done watched tha movie but never read tha book. I'd have to say 50 Cent 50th Law

Never read 50th, Art of Seduction wasn’t bad. The book is >>>>>>>>>>>>> the movie. It goes way more in depth on his street days than the movie does. His transformation when you read it is fukkin amazing.
