| | | A the editor-in-chief of "Blaze" magazine, Washington has been threatened at gunpoint and beaten up by aggrieved rappers. Knowing the world of hip-hop intimately, he has written a page-turner filled with thinly veiled revelations about some of the biggest names in the business. Annotation: Jesse Washington, the former editor-of-chief of Blaze magazine, provides a fictional take on the fabulous and cutthroat world of the hip-hop industry. Told from the point of two brothers, Marq and Dontay Wise, BLACK WILL SHOOT works both as a great story and an insider's look inside rap culture. Marq, a successful journalist, has made his name with a profile of the Oscar-winning and recently murdered rap star Large, while his bother is a down-on-his-luck producer with a nasty crack habit.
| Praise| "This razor-sharp debut from [Jesse] Washington...offers a searing look at the rap industry." 12/17/2007 |
