They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us
by Hanif Abdurraqib
emotional
reflective
Beautiful, beautiful book. He's such an amazing writer and I'm so so happy I finally read this. I can't wait to go back to the essays over the years.
This didn't get a full five stars from me because I feel like some essays felt out of place. While I loved him talking about sports and other topics (can't wait to read his essay collection on basketball!!) it felt jarring here when they weren't connected to music because he opened with a strong lead into music and about 90% of the essays are focused on songs, albums and artists. I wish that had been the case the whole time.
But I did love every essay here (the white Rapper one I could have done without!!)
