Wikipedia is not for reviews

I'm currently reading "Bomb the Suburbs" and I strongly recommend it to anyone out there. I look forward to reading his other books when done. I'm not sure if review of books is part of a valid article on an author, but I may try to add a bit to the article and see if it gets reverted... I'm thinking about adding a line about the essay mentioned several times in his first book "We use words like Mackadocious..." which sounds like a valueable and honest viewpoint on race relations and general hip-hop culture. I believe it's still relevant today (the Essay was published in May 1993) and worth reading. --Zeroasterisk 06:11, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

But yeah he's a powerful writer and yeah good books. It anything, start the articles for them, cuz there should be some. Xsxex 23:33, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
