Some of my favorite films have been those that followed that bright-eyed, bushy-tailed feeling of first diving into the music industry, like
Almost Famous. And some of my favorite books have followed the rise and fall of fictional rock stars, like
Daisy Jones and The Six.
But unfortunately, it has still been rare to find a book that gives a refreshing new perspective on navigating the wild world of rock and roll from the eyes of a character that looks like me, which can be frustrating, because it’s not like PoC don’t exist in these spaces there’s Fefe Dobson, System of a Down, X-Ray Spex, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and so many more whose stories deserve equal merit to everyone else’s.
