Oh an actual sequel. I remember she wrote a couple of other books but they were about the main character’s love interest who rejected her.
Sista Souljah talks sequel to Coldest Winter Ever on the breakfast club
- Thread starter Rhapture
- Start date
Soiljah is the pioneer of the modern street literature genre. I asslso think her influence is underrated on books and film in modern black culture
And then there was the Bill Clinton incident she made headlines for.

The deal for a movie produced with Jada Pinkett fell throughThis and True To The Game were some fire books for their time that sadly did not get the red carpet treatment.
It would be dope if there was a hood version PassionFlix for all of the "street romance" type of books that came out.
I would love to see a modern day take on The Coldest Winter Ever
Sister Souljah on Her New Book, 'Midnight'
Breh, this was probably one of the best books I've ever read because it was visually thought out. It had this weird "The Wire" complex where all of the characters were somewhat relatable to a every day cycle. I swear everybody knew one "Midnight" that they came across. That smart, quiet, but grimy type of dude that's trying to get by.
To this very day, most of these "hood romance" books try to copy the blueprint but fail to even meet such quality.
GOAT urban fiction. I was surprised they never turned it into a movie too until I found out Jada Pinkett owns the rights I believe. She was waiting on the right business opportunity but this was over a decade ago so who knows where that went. On another note, there actually is a movie for True To The Game. They even had a sequel starring Waka FlackaThis and True To The Game were some fire books for their time that sadly did not get the red carpet treatment

I was seeing a girl who was reading it when I was in High school and I mistakenly judged as some "girl book". Years later a dude I knew with 9 Felony convictions highly recommended Sistah Souljah's book to me.
I could barely put it down.

Breh that entire book is fukkery potent. The fact that ole girl thought she was going to get with that rapper and it ended up being one of the rapper's bodyguards or some shyt was

Damn, didn't see this coming. I remember my cousins reading these books. This one and Fly Girl by Omar Tyree. Those books really created this odd and rare space back then, you felt like it was a peek into the mind of a young black female.
