Write Lines, Adventures in Rap Journalism

Take the pillow from your head and put a book in it. This book, ideally*.

Having failed at rapping, what’s next for an endlessly passionate rap nerd? In this sequel to the acclaimed memoir Wiggaz With Attitude, it turns out what’s next is a sometimes controversial career in rap journalism. Write Lines: Adventures in Rap Journalism tells the tale of hip-hop writing from the inside.

From death threats to interviewing Lauryn Hill while she’s in the shower. From calling Jay-Z a c*** to his face, to letting a notorious rapper sleep in his bath, it’s a hilarious, anecdote-studded tale that takes in hip-hop’s first ever magazine and lifts the lid on rivalries, squabbles and how music journalism really works.

Due for release on 8 March 2024 but exclusively available from the Velocity Press shop now.

*Ever tried sleeping with a book for a pillow? Not good at all. Thanks for that amazing tip, KRS.
