HOLLER IF YOU HEAR ME

From the New York Times bestselling author of Tears We Cannot Stop and What Truth Sounds Like, and the author of Jay-Z: Made in America, the classic biography of Tupac Shakur and portrait of hip hop culture.

Decades after his murder, Tupac Shakur is even more loved, contested, and celebrated than he was in life. His posthumously released albums, poetry, and motion pictures have catapulted him into the upper echelon of American cultural icons. In Holler If You Hear Me, bestselling public intellectual Michael Eric Dyson offers a wholly original way of looking at Tupac that will thrill those who already love the artist and enlighten those who want to understand him.
