"What you going to ignore me even though you're hungry boy? Even though that light bill due & the water bill too?" I'm sure this didn't speak to everyone but when you know you know. The struggle is real.
One of the greatest pieces of our generation. It encompasses an aspect of a community that most people wouldn't notice twice. It is culture. It is truth. It is survival. One of the best. Forreal
"Im the rock in that roll." That was the line that made me smile. This was an amazing piece. This was really nicely done. Inspired the spoken word artist in me to do better
WOW holy shit this was incredible! Not only were the words painfully honest and beautifully woven together but the performance made it something so much bigger than just words on paper. He captured what so many go through. He shone a spotlight on the shadow that whispers to all the men and woman who have worked their hands raw and still have the strength to turn away from the slippery slope waiting around every corner. Thank you for this gift. I'll be keeping an eye out for Steven Willis from now on!
Whether it’s oranges on the side of the highway, dope on a street corner or a cubical 9-5, everyone has a hustle. The hustle plays no favorites with saints nor sinners. I imagine that laugh is how the devil greets you when the hustle finally wins...

A message only a few could understand
“Don’t you know you can’t ignore me? I’m bigger than God.”
The title drew me in. The performance knocked me over with its power. Damn.

Delivery was everything💯

Powerful piece... This is the first time I heard someone personify "hustling" in that way. Loved it
Oh my god. I cant believe im just now seeing this. Absolutly breathtaking. This reads as a poem and a monologue.
