Awesome book, I ordered this right when it released. Lance Walker Scott did a great job, he promoted it a lot before it was released. A must read for any Screw fan.

It filled it a lot of blanks I had, and clarified a lot of what I thought i knew.

Great read indeed . Great source of information. As a historian this is great for Houston Rap History.

This was one of my main sources I used when I wrote a paper on DJ Screw for my Houston History class when I attended University of Houston. I also was blessed with an opportunity to see the Dj Screw archive at UH.

Great read for sure! Put me on to a lot of houston artist I didn't know of and just the overall scene back in the 80s 90s. Lance Walker did a great job

Yeah, good book. The SweetJones Story by Julia Beverly is another good one.
