Supreme Understanding should feel accomplished since dropping his second installment, Rap, Race And Revolution. This is part two to his very real, very informative How to Hustle and Win. Understanding remains true to his target audience by presenting another rugged guide packed with tips for successful living as well as stories that back up his hypotheses, statistics, and resources to obtain more information. There are so many gems in this guide, it is hard to pinpoint what stands out more. But I will start with a few entries that made me pause and think. In the small entry titled `If Einstein was Black,' he proposed that if Einstein lived in the hood with his disabilities, he would have been a drug addict or dead beat dad. Einstein's environment would not have been conducive to the way he learned and he would have been placed in special-education classes because of the system's intolerance for alternate methods of learning. How many Einsteins do you think we have lurking in our special-education systems throughout the world's urban areas?

Another section that piqued my interest is titled '13 Ways to Destroy Yourself.' In this section, he gives you exactly that. Staying angry, sacrificing sleep, getting into the wrong line of work, and ignoring your doctor are a few of the firsts. While reading, I began to place myself (and a few others I know) in a few of the self-destructive categories he listed. Certainly this information is available, but I have never seen them listed together like they are in Rap, Race and Revolution. And I have never seen them applied in such a way that I see how it is ruining our Black community.

Supreme Understanding has given a gift to his people; especially the young, Black man. The author put together a guide that helps you assess your life via current and historical events, surveys, tips, and much more. The layout of the book allows you to jump from section to section without feeling disjointed and the author's passion is apparent throughout the entire book. If you are of the Hip-Hop culture, this book is a must have. If you have young, black men to raise, this book is a must read and would be great for gifting. If you are black and feel like the American dream is unreachable, read this book (as well as How To Hustle and Win). You will not be disappointed and you will definitely feel inspired to make changes.

Informative just like the first book! He lays down all the facts to help people make this world better for everyone! He is blunt with what he says and that's what I love about this book! There is no bulls***! It is pure knowledge that everyone should learn! I hope that anyone who is curious about this book gives it a chance; you will not regret it! It may even surprise you that most things that were happening are still happening right in front of us!

Revolt!

A book of proverbs and lessons to a fatherless child! A GPS system of literature to navigate in a catastrophic world of crisis and chaos. Supreme, this is lightning in a bottle bother. Both books part 1 and 2……simply brilliant!

The book was really good. Gave me tons of other books to read to expand my knowledge of the world and how things are. I would definitely recommend others to read this book.

This book has a purpose which is to educate the blacks on their history, what they can do about it to get a better life and then contribute back to the ghettos.
