Book Excerpt :

How does one pay homage to A Tribe Called Quest?

Seventeen years after their last album, they resurrected themselves with an intense, socially conscious record, We Got It from Here . . .

Poet and essayist Hanif Abdurraqib digs into the group's history and draws from his own experience to reflect on how its distinctive sound resonated among fans like himself.

Book Excerpt :

A princess isn?t supposed to fall for an evil sorceress. But in this darkly magical retelling of ?Sleeping Beauty,? true love is more than a simple fairy tale.

You?ve heard this before, haven?t you? The handsome prince. The happily-ever-after. Utter nonsense. Let me tell you, no one in Briar actually cares about what happens to its princesses.
