Not even E was personally manufacturing his own shit. Alas, Luke's operation blew up in his face big time, to the point where the guy who was his lawyer now owns his former label and all of its intellectual property. Luke comes off as overly impressed with his own business acumen for someone who took such an L, but I suppose that's to be expected from a hip-hop book. More than I expected First of all, this book is awesome. If you want wild party stories, they are few and far between. This book is an education written by a grownup Luther Campbell.

I enjoyed the learning experience. A little language but nothing overwhelming. I recommend this More than I expected First of all, this book is awesome. I recommend this book to anyone, but especially if you grew up a a fan of 2 Live Crew and Luke Skyywalker.

Thought I was going to read about raunchy stories and shenanigans. Boy, was I surprised to learn about a fascinating trailblazer in the music industry and his community. Highly recommend this book to anyone who judges a book by it's cover or wants to be involved and make a difference! The history that he shared in this book was amazing. I never expected to enjoy his book as much as I did. I would highly recommend this book! Mar 30, Christopher McDonald rated it it was amazing. Wow, wow, wow! I read this autobiography for work.

It was a nice breath of fresh air from the bulk of fiction I've been reading. And Lord knows I love a good music autobiography. I grew up listening to all kinds of hip-hop and I remember when my brother introduced me to 2 Live Crew.

It was so dirty and silly to me. But I could tell they were just having fun and they meant no harm. It's pretty enlightening to see what Luther and the members of the group had to put up with. I knew about the Wow, wow, wow! I knew about the scrutiny they received from the right wing conservatives and what they had to deal with with the Supreme Court, but I had no idea the bulk of hip-hop culture rejected them also. Luther offers great background about his plight.

He also points out how he pioneered many elements in hip-hop we take for granted today. His commitment to Liberty City and the football program is also very inspiring. All that aside, he doesn't hold back on the "rock n' roll lifestyle" he lived I actually found myself blushing at many of his stories; often times belly laughing.

This book is definitely worth the read for those stories alone. But most definitely worth the read for a story of redemption and giving back.

The Book of Luke: My Fight for Truth, Justice, and Liberty City

This book was well written; like most things that Uncle Luke did but has not always had credit for. He fought for what other people received and took for granted. He did it all the way to the Supreme Court ans still got little respect and more litigation. This is not a rant at all, and he really speaks for equality.

I recommend this book for anyone who looks down upon black folks or any of the underprivileged. Every U. Citizen deserves the same rights! Keep your highlighter handy for this one. I enjoyed this book very much. Ive always had a big crush on him. Sep 16, Wesley Hetrick rated it it was amazing. I liked this one a lot. He gives not only his own history but a lot of the history of Miami.

It may be the rule of a Republic over another people, arbitrary and irresponsible to the governed, and it will be an imperial government in its essence, however you may disguise the fact. Indeed, disguising the character of imperialism is cultivated as a fine art by its devotees. President McKinley himself recently furnished an example of this, bold enough to make us gasp. They are the arguments that kings have made for the enslaving of the people in all ages of the world.

You will find that all the arguments of kingcraft were always of this class; they always bestrode the necks of the people — not that they wanted to do it, but because the people were better off for being ridden. Turn it whatever way you will, whether it comes from the mouth of a king, as an excuse for enslaving the people of his country, or from the mouths of men of one race as a reason for enslaving the men of another race, it is all the same serpent.

The party of Lincoln!

If men advocating the arbitrary rule of one people over another on the old despot's plea that such rule is good for the subject, had come to Abraham Lincoln saying that they were his party, it would have required all his good nature to keep him from lifting up his big foot to kick them downstairs. In the face of the fact that thousands upon thousands of Filipinos have been killed in their struggle against American imperialism, and that our Porto Rican subjects are loudly groaning under the same American imperialism, to say that Mr.

McKinley's party has bravely saved those people from the yoke of imperialism is truly a great feat. We may well ask when Mr. McKinley pronounced that sentence, what he may have thought of the intelligence of his countrymen. Having thus fixed in our minds what imperialism is, let us now see what the pursuit of the imperialistic policy has already done for — or rather with us.

I am aware that President McKinley in his recent letter of acceptance denies that the war against the Filipinos was a war of conquest. Now listen to this plain tale. And then President McKinley concluded to take them all. No, from whatever side we may look at it, this Filipino war was from the beginning, and is, a barefaced, cynical war of conquest in the word's truest sense. How was this war brought about? Here again the President's presentation of the case in his letter of acceptance must be confronted with indisputable historical facts.

When Dewey had destroyed the Spanish fleet he brought to Manila Bay on a United States vessel Aguinaldo, the chief of the Filipino insurgents against Spain, whom he had invited to come. Why had Dewey invited that chief? Who were these Filipinos with Aguinaldo at their head? They were a people in insurrection against Spanish misrule, just as the Cubans were — only that they were much stronger and far more successful in the field and had a far better organized and more efficient civil government.

And what did they do?

Quise Reads A Page From "The Book of Luke: My Fight for Truth, Justice, and Liberty City"

The Spanish commander mentioned this fact as one of the main reasons for the bloodless surrender of Manila. The high value of the services rendered by the Filipino army was officially testified to by several of our most respectable officers. Any just and benevolent man would have been eager to do this. Alas, our President did not think of it. But when the Filipinos asked to be heard, he at least kindly gave them audience?

No, not even that. He coldly turned his back upon them. And he did this while he knew that Spain had not only morally forfeited her sovereignty over the Philippines by her misrule, as we had held in the case of Cuba, to the inhabitants of the country, but that Spain had actually lost that sovereignty in the war carried on in great part by the Filipinos, and could not deliver it. Nobody can deny this. It is history. Such a thing was done by the President of this great American Republic, the child of the Declaration of Independence, the champion of liberty and justice in the world, the guiding star of liberty-loving mankind?

Yes, he did that very thing, without even listening to them, and he now asks the American people to declare by their solemn votes that it was well done, and that they approve it. American citizens, I appeal to you in all soberness — what would you have said three years ago, before the imperialistic poison had corrupted your blood — what would you have said if anybody had predicted such a thing as possible?

There is not a man among you who would not have declared such a prophet fit for the madhouse. And how do the President's defenders excuse this atrocity? By saying that we owe the Filipinos no moral consideration that should have kept us from doing it. This excuse is almost, nay fully as mean as the original misdeed itself. The Filipinos were in fact our allies in the war against Spain.

They had been called by Dewey to our assistance to do military work, which at the time with the forces we had we could not have done ourselves. They were not a mere little band of barbaric auxiliaries to hover about the flanks of the enemy. They had an army of 20, to 30, men, and a well organized civil government effectively ruling a large part of the population and recognized by well-nigh the whole of it. They rendered important service in the field.

They corresponded with our commanders on an independent footing. Nay, they were practically recognized by our commanders as allies even to the extent of having thousands of Spanish prisoners, partly taken by our forces, turned over to them.
