I love good culture writing, and so I want to share this brilliant essay by my friend @austinmccoy.bsky.social that reveals how rap beefs have a very specific economic dimension.

I still have a few copies of NEGATIVE GIRL available directly from me, with a personalized signature and FREE SHIPPING!
Happy Monday! Friendly reminder that if you have a favorite author, see if they sell books (e- or paper) directly on their site before buying from a retailer. You will be putting a few extra bucks in their pocket if you do!

Many of you who know me know I had an ordeal with a poetry manuscript that was written during my brother's illness and after his death. I didn't give up on it, though, and so I have this happy news to share.
