It’s all there in this book.
The first album I bought with my own money

I remember the swirl and the detail of the cover.
That song was the beginning of hip-hop entering all of our lives.
The last concert I attended
BeyonceandJay-Z,On the Run I saw them in New Jersey.
The movie I watch over and over
Jayson’s Lyric.
Friends, food, pain, laughter, all of it!
The last TV show that made me laugh out loud
Insecure.
Every episode, I laugh out loud.
Issa Dee and the cast are me, my friends, and the people I hang out with.
Plus, every episode is hilarious.
It isn’t just because it involves crime solving and detective work.
The last TV show I binged
I May Destroy You, fromMichaela Coel.
I told every friend and family member that they must see it.
The version of course that doesn’t include people coming in and destroying it.
A brilliant book, it won the French Grand Prix award for women’s literature.
The movie I wish everyone would watch
Claudine.
It’s James Earl Jones and the great Diahann Carroll at their finest.
