Sinopsis

Crow provides you with a raw and sometimes uncomfortable glance at the people and events that help shape his life. Torn between his own imperfections and his father's influence, Crow almost lost his freedom and his life. "Windows to my Past" takes you from the streets of Brooklyn, East New York to the arms of infidelity and slaps you with the reality that domestic violence goes beyond the victim and the victimzer. "Windows to my Past" is poetry, its hip-hop, its you. If you like the book you'll love a live performance and the soundtrack Featuring Dylan Dilinjah (from MTV's Making the Band Season 3), DV Alias Khyrst, Colee Stallone (from RockmeTV.com), Debo Damaggio (from Drop Mor Entertainment), Rachel Walker and production from Eddie "Loco" (of the Loony Bin Studios). The soundtrack is now available on ITunes Search word: Windows to my Past". If you would like to follow Crow you can find him at mylastwrites.org; youtube.com/mylastwrites; myspace.com/crow1952.

Reseña del editor

"Windows to my Past" is a roller coaster of feelings and emotions. While writing this book (in the late 90's) I experienced the joy of my brother getting married, the frustration of being questioned by the police at gunpoint, the thrill of simply waking up everyday; and the pain associated with a shattered father/son relationship that never had the chance to heal. This book is more than a collection of poetry, it's therapy.

Biografía del autor

In August 1998 (as a member of the rap group) "US" was interviewed and photographed by the "Source" Magazine, and in October of 2000 the group was interviewed and photographed by "XXL" magazine. In addition, to endless accolades and spins (of their records) on college radio. The group failed to leap from the underground to mainstream. By 2002 Crow became an active member of poetry group "Tha Production". Though Crow's tenor with the group was limited, he (Crow) executive produced the poetry group mix tape CD entitled "The Audtitions", shortly after Crow self published his first book and CD entitled "Blank Pages" in 2002. The overwhelming response would lead Crow to become one of the founding members of the original "Machismo Redefined" poetry troupe. The troupe performed at multiple venues throughout New York including colleges and the world famous "Nuyorican Poets Cafe". Infusing poetry with theatre and more, in the October 2003 the NY Press newspaper higlighted the troupe and their uncanny energy and creativity.
