Bruh u ain’t lying I was 22 and snorting dust when I read dope fiend and that was the first time I felt like a J. I put the book down 3-4 times bc it felt like a personal attack.

This happened to me reading Monster by Monster Kody.
shyt had me so paranoid. Had to walk down 7 Mile for a lil hike.
That shyt had me on 100. Itchy finger and all that.

Greatest novelist of all time.

I read all his books

Dopefiend is one of the best book that I ever read. With the right director and actors and actresses, someone can make a classic film out of Dopefiend.

thats the first book of his I read... incredible.

would love to see this as a flick just to see the inside of Porky's dope crib

Its one of those things where you can see it in your head..... ALSO smell it from his VERY descriptive writing

I'm 27, and never read any of his work. Where would I start?

Dude was the original urban author. Was the world's best writer, no. But his impact is long lasting.

Truly one of the goats. Whoreson is prolly my favorite out of the bunch, but White Man's Justice Black Man's Grief is a close 2nd. His sotries had a lot of gems. He pretty much inspired me to write and publish my own novel.

I love the fact that most of his books don't have happy endings which is some real life shyt.

For those that need his books in kindle form epub check z library.
