BOOKS BY LORD JUDAH
Words on the page, same as words on the beat. These are the ideas I've been building on for years — for the artists coming up, the ones already in it, and anybody who ever needed permission to imagine bigger.
"Ideas": Rap Career Written and Unwritten #Rules
Kindle Edition · Published January 9, 2018 · 31 pages · Available on Amazon
"Ideas": Rap Career Written and Unwritten #Rules is a much-needed message for today's Hip Hop community. It takes on the topics we usually skip — mental health, building resilience, and surviving an era where every idea gets shared before it gets finished.
The book grew out of a call to action from former President Barack Obama on February 27th, 2014, and out of the years of work I put in with my community in Westchester, New York. Its mission is to open up new ways to talk about success and achievement — and what those words actually look like for the younger generation.
Hip Hop has been a tool for transformation for millions of people in this world. I believe in my heart that through Hip Hop a new paradigm is opening up — one where we can imagine and then realize our wildest dreams.
