Furthermore, the publisher mentions that Black Thought explores multiple questions like forgiving the people who love and hurt us. Not only that the book also dives into confronting the question of how to honor and rediscover our first dreams.

Black Thought has never cheated fans when it comes to putting out great work. Reportedly the memoir is filled with vivid vignettes.
