Holler If You Hear Me Reviews

"Dyson at his penetrating best."--Washington Post
"Dyson plays the role less of biographer or critic than cultural translator, offering thumbnail explanations of tides of black rage, machismo, self-hate, authenticity, and radical activism."--New York Times
"Dyson writes, trying to canonize Pac for ghetto sainthood. So let he who has ears, hear, and holler."--Vibe
"Mesmerizing...promises to thrill and surprise even his most avid fans."--Essence
