They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us by Hanif Abdurraqib

hopeful reflective medium-paced

5.0

Absolutely fantastic! Hanif is an expert storyteller and critic. He talks about a lot of well known artists, like Carly Rae Jepsen and Macklemore, but also some I didn’t know but that didn’t affect my enjoyment of the essays. The personal stories he included were very impactful and had us look at music through his eyes based on his experience as a man of color. I really liked a lot of the essays at the end and the way he narrates the book. Definitely gonna need a physical copy!
