Didn’t Like It “Revenge was the theme in four of these five stories. The second story was probably the best of the lot, the fifth was the worst. The first story was incredibly raunchy, and there was a lot of raunch in all of the stories. The writing was decent in all of the stories, but none of the characters...” see full review » see other reviews » |

“Revenge was the theme in four of these five stories. The second story was probably the best of the lot, the fifth was the worst. The first story was incredibly raunchy, and there was a lot of raunch in all of the stories. The writing was decent in all of the stories, but none of the characters was very well fleshed out.”

She is Daddy's moneymaker She's Daddy's bottom b*tch. Nessa is a pro and Big Daddy is her pimp. However, nothing and no one is, as it seems. 36 Mafia said it best, "It's hard out here for a pimp!"
Tale Number Two
360 by The Ghost
Sell it, don't use it. Rule number one amongst hustlers. Everyone knows that you don't get high off your own supply. That's a code that young hustler Cojack lived by. In spite of that, Cojack soon finds himself falling victim to addiction and lowering his guard and awareness; another no-no in the streets.
Tale Number Three
No Mercy by Akbar Pray
Watching his family slaughtered before his young innocent eyes hardened the heart and darkened the soul of Antwan Dawson. Revenge is the only thing on his mind.
Tale Number Four
Thicker Than Mud by Y Blak Moore
Back on the streets after serving fourteen years, Dodo finds that things and times have changed. But one thing remains the same, blood is thicker than mud.
Tale Number Five
Gotta Have a Ruffneck by Nikki Turner
I don't' know what it is, but there's just something about a bad boy.
"Gotta what yo
Gotta get a ruffneck"
Journalist Angel Delaney has always walked the straight and narrow. The only experience she's had in the streets is in her writing since she primarily focuses on criminal-justice cases. But Angel is ready to take a trip on the wild side and bad boy Dee is her tour guide.
Street Chronicles Tales From Da Hood started off on a high note as Kwame Teague blazed the trail with his "go hard or go home" introduction. It had me wishing that he had written a tale himself instead of just the foreword.
All of the stories were decent and possessed the grit, grime, and creativity needed to make for good short stories, but the talent of Y Blak Moore and Nikki Turner outshined the rest.”
“EXCELLANT SHORT STORIES, A FEW I LIKE. SHE COULD HAVE DID A BETTER JOB.”
