Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. The back cover reads, "L-vis is an imagined personal, a pastiche of artists who have used and misused Black music". Kevin Coval, one of the founders of the largest annual youth poetry fest, Louder Than a Bomb, released the chapbook L-Vis lives to address the historical phenomenon of white boys appropriating black music. When I went to his book talk, Kevin discussed how Eminem, a white rapper, is a millionaire who Rolling Stone named one of the Kings of Hip-hop, meanwhile one of the ACTUAL godfathers of hip-hop, DJ Kool Herc, who also is credited with the beat break used in DJing, has a serious illness and has no health insurance. This book of poetry delves into these issues, using L-vis as an imagined persona who is grappling with his whiteness, identity, and his craft.

Like so many others who gained fame and fortune from their sampling, L-vis is as much a sincere artist as he is a thief.
