Sistah Soulja, Eric Jerome Dickey(R.I.P.), Carl Weber, and Zane got me through 2 deployments. Strengthened my vocabulary and comprehension. We gotta uplift our writers.

@@taylynn2 mary b morrison one of my fav authors! i have read your whole list. the library in bmore loved me cuz i would check out 30 books a month!
You just named all my high school reading material.
I'm a grown ass man that owns every Souljah novel. There I said it.
Ain’t nothing wrong with that
Nothing to be ashamed of king!
She's a dope author frfr
Same here 💯
Good for you! I'm not mad at you.
The Coldest Winter ever... Is a straight classic....
I never read it but plan to now after this video and comments. If you don't mind. What about the book/story impacted your life the most?
The Coldest Winter early 2000's, I'll never forget on my way to work ridng on the L train in Chicago, this book was so deep, I didn't even realized that I had missed my stop that's how good that book is.
@@cali.songbird In my opinion, from reading the book at the age of 13, it opened my eyes to what people will do to stay on top, especially a woman.
Best book I’ve ever read. No other book was ever a page turner like that one
💯💯💯
I really love this woman The Coldest Winter Ever is the 1st novel I finished from start to finish. I was so proud as a person who is Dyslexic 😊
Wow! I was thinking of giving my daughter this book to read because she’s dyslexic. I was worried about the content but you just helped me make my decision
I was gifted The Coldest Winter Ever when I was 15 in juvie, the best thing you could do for a hood girl to fall in love with reading.
Me too ✌🏾💯😂
Omg you are really wrong for this! People this person is trying to be funny. Don’t have your kids read this just because you think they’re dyslexic!
Well done honey 🥰🥰
Ladies and Gentlemen: This is an example of what a wise woman looks like.
So very true.
I so agree
@ J Jermaine
This is what... and sounds like as well. She's one analytical and intelligent sistah!!💯
Ase
She is a liar, she's not qualified to speak into people she just lied calling us black,we are ebony people, she is collusioning with genius organized crime doing that,there is a such practice as "helpful disapline "I am so done with Street Academy period,!
Without “midnight” or “coldest winter ever” I don’t know if I would still be alive this book helped me get through a jail sentence and really made me want to learn more about myself and who I am and who I came from
❤️ glad you’re free!
That's a blessing. God really does work in mysterious ways....
God bless you Jorel. These books were the only books I could get my middle school girls to read. I was a urban school teacher at the time.
Same.....so glad there was a coldest winter ever during that bid!
niggas did real bids to sister Soulja frfr fam
She Brilliant. When she speaks , I listen. With that said, I’ve had a crush on Midnight for 20yrs... lmaooo
You and me both!!!
Me too until the sequel, Midnight, my crush on him ended there lol
😂 yassss
Same, he was so mysterious and low-key. That sequel was not IT though
Oh Yes..!
Her voice is so calming. She speaks with so much wisdom and grace.
Serious though!
Very Intelligent. 👑💜
She's always been this way....
Right!

“Shakespeare is not a good as Sister Soulja” Facts 💯
Shakespeare books were written by a black woman 👩🏽
@@PrimordialChaos07 so this is true, I heard about it around. They’ve been taking from us heee!
Nah, come on, but Sister Souljah is great, in a totally different class of artistry and integrity than a fool like Amanda Gorman.
I also like the book “ a deeper love inside. The Porsche santiaga story” it was wonderful as well. ❤️❤️
I just finished recently ❤️
Great read!!
This was a beautiful story❣😭❤
I enjoyed that book as well
All of them are great even midnight story was amazing I'm so excited lmao
She's so important to the community please support and buy her book give her the flowers now and not later
Already ordered mine few days ago.
Facts!💯
Got it!!!
💯💯💯Very inspirational
I agree.and will take your advice& get one for my 7yr old & i to read🙊
I was teaching literacy at a job training facility in Memphis for students ages 16-25. I was doing okay but I felt pressed for more results. The challenge was trying to present students material that would keep their interests but at the same time it would be practical in their lives. That's when I checked out the "Coldest Winter Ever" from a nearby library and my classes would never be the same. Long story short, I must have went through 8 copies in a 3 year period back in the early 2010s (not to add copies that I had to pay for from the library because they mysteriously came up missing). The library put it on their suggested reading list. Instead of hunting students down and making them come to my class, I ended having to make them go to their scheduled classes by the time I left. .....AND IT ALL STARTED WITH HER BOOK "THE COLDEST WINTER EVER!"
great work, Mr. Pope! Kudos!
Look into her other book titled No Disrespect. Especially if your students are black.
Beautiful 🤎✊🏾
It definitely kept my interest as a high school student 👩🏾🎓 👨🏾🎓
Wow! I love this!
The Coldest Winter Ever was the first adult book I read as a child..
Me too
Yes me too! After that book I was hooked on urban fiction novels
LoL. This statement is everything
me too!! and I loved every minute of it lol
That put a lot of kids on to reading. Many didn't even like to read, nor did they know books like TCWE even existed.
The first book I read while locked up. Couldn't never understand how ppl could sit and read but then I found out and fell in love with reading.
Her book NO DISRESPECT deserves more praise
Her best work!
MOST DEFINITELY LOVED IT!!!!
Absolutely!
Still need it to come to e-book. A shame she became such a weird-ass pick me.
Absolutely! It’s my favorite book of hers
U can tell when they have a guest the really respect they keep the jokes to a minimum and really give the guest the floor to respond
Which is what the culture needs rn...
Exactly
@mochasuccess: and also this info is relevant, b/c as much as people think she's talking about her book she's actually talking about Islam, and that makes her super smart b/c she's giving duaa (info/invite to Islam) to thousands of people listening and they don't even know it. Masha'Allaah. May Allaah guide and bless her insha'Allaah, amin.
💯💯💯
I encourage everyone to reread, “The coldest winter ever” before you read the sequel. I have a different perspective about the book after reading it years later. I’ve read the book 3 times and each time I’ve gained different perspectives, especially as I’ve gotten older and wiser. Happy reading, ENJOY! Grand risings!!! 🖤
You know what it’s been years since I read it, so I think I will. It’s so interesting how your perspective can completely change with growth and experience. Shit be looking real different, lol.
I sure will read it again. Thanks for the heads up. 🙌🏾
🙏🏾🤓🙌🏾I’m on it now
It’s amazing how well I remember that story. I generally save audiobooks for nonfiction, but I think I will listen to TCWE before reading the sequel
I might just do that
I love Sista Soulja. That’s it.
Me too!
Yeh she an OG freedom fighter love to her
Damn right!
She doesn't love u..
@@aljamainebruner3245 Cmon fam! SMH!
Midnight is one of the best books/series I’ve ever read.
I have that book, and I still need to finish reading it.
I liked it. I love how it had pictures in the book
I had to force myself to read that book. I finished it tho... but not one of my favorites.
I was in high school when I read it and i thought it was boring
I love the entire series...I have read all of them at least twice!
I am currently reading “life after death” and if hell is anything like the way she describes it in the book...I DO NOT WANT TO GO THERE..the things that winter is going thru is EXTREME..winter is still a dummy..to the point where I said “man leave her there” out of anger but gods mercy is a powerful thing....the patience displayed is unmatched..I’m on chapter 31 and this book is heavy..you definitely will find yourself doing a lot of self reflecting...
Yess!! I've been in such deep self-reflection since I finished it last Sunday.
I stopped after the coldest winter ever thought she would have grown up by now. Midnight still hanging in with that crazy girl?
@@scorchedearth824 no thankfully Midnight is a grown man.
Not what I expected but it will definitely leave you doing a lot of self reflecting for sure. I finished the book in 2 days because it was definitely different than anything I’ve ever read
Most definitely! The book is amazing!
She’s such a beautiful soul, inside and out.
Shy from Philly 🌺 yess, she has a good soul❣
Omar Tyree and Sister Souljah FOR SURE got me through my high school years.. Zane too lmao (i was fast)
Same sis, same. 😂
Yes! I remember writing a letter to Omar Tyree in H.S. after reading Flyy Girl and when he wrote me back, you would have thought Michael Jackson himself wrote me a letter. Dope author.
What about Eric Jerome Dickey? He was in my lineup as well!
Haha I feel guilty because I read a lot of Zane books knowing damn well I shouldn’t of 🤫😂
Same love same
Sister Souljah & Eric Jerome Dickey books were fire back in the day...
R.I.P. Eric Jerome Dickey 🙏🏽
@@kimme2852 Whaaaaaat?! You lying! Where have I been? Let me check Google right quick...
Edit: Damn. He died 2021/Jan/03 from cancer.
:(
Rest in Power EJD 😔
I just lloovelovelove her books
RIP Eric Jerome Dickey
Sista Souljah is brilliant. She’s a true intellectual. Thank you For this discourse.
Sister Souljah feel that she was not embraced by her peers in the Hip-Hop, and she is right. She is too intelligent, too smart, too much fire in her words, of course she scared the hell out of all those rappers. But she should not be worried. Shes eternal and will always be a guiding bright light to her black community not only in America, but all over the world. Check her in the Donahue show and her showdown with Bill Clinton to have a teaspoon of her soul.
This sista brings the heat and TRUTH in her words. They were not on her intellectual level.
I remember that one.
Plus, male dominated hip hop was not about to listen to a black woman. Even though they had no direction, they would rather listen to anybody else but a black woman.
This is who young women need to listen to and research her!!
Thinking the same thing
I totally agree
Who do young MEN need to listen to?
@@LaKae444 right now it's a dude in Philly name wallo267 great dude..... go get Malcolm x grandson lectures.... nick cannon roundtable with different strong black men ect..... nipsey hussle list goes on!!! Can't forget wise intelligence from poor righteous teachers....
@@LaKae444 Good question!
A True Queen who is deliberate and precise. Great interview.
Finally I see someone say queen to someone who is deserving of it
Shy from Philly 🌺 Truly a Queen❣💯
Everything she says is so thoughtful and wise. Loved when she said she doesn’t write based on what people want because they could write that themselves (paraphrased).
Everybody was reading this in Middle School around with book, it was a trend. That and fly girrl
Loved them both.
Damn you just took me all the way back!😃
@@Jess-yq6bx facts!
Yassss flyy girl...Eric Jerome Dickey
Omar tyree is a great writer to flyy girl was and is an legendary book
"I'm NOT the judge bit there IS a judge." PREACH! 🙌🏾
Why isn’t she teaching Sociology at a University. She has such a wealth of knowledge. She should be doing lectures or seminars across the nation.
She probably doesn’t want to, it’s her life.
She actually does do lectures and workshops at universities and other institutions all around the globe. She came to my university when I was a young co-ed and it was an absolute dream come true. She's so much more than just an author. She's a national treasure.
She does speaking engagements across the country. She came to my city a few years ago and I was able to hear her speak. She is an amazing orator.
She's too subversive. White liberals have been trying to silence her for decades. I think that's why she focuses novels now.
Omg i would so take her class lol
Sister Souljah still got that baby face
Always appreciate seeing Sister Soujah shine. As a former president of Black Caucus at Penn State I arranged to bring her to the campus back in '95 and it was a great event, and she was very well-received. I still cherish the copy of 'No Disrespect' she signed for me back then.
Wow, this is awesome!
I read No Disrespect last year....great book, she is so insightful.
Wow beautiful
I'm also a grown man that has every Sister Souljah book lol She my favorite cuz Coldest Winter Ever made me fall in LOVE with reading & it changed my life. I reread Coldest Winter last week & just got the sequel yesterday. Im usually nonchalant about everything but I'm actually excited lmao
man, you go me hype bro ... ima read CWE too
She's such an amazing writer. I would love for her to do a book called The Hottest Summer...a cautionary tale of "Summer, a promiscuous wild child that gets caught up in the dark world sex trafficking." This seems to be on of the most serious issues that teens are facing now.
Yo i dig that
Girl it sounds like YOU need to write that!! That's a bomb ass plot and title!!
You should really work on this yourself. This sounds like a great storyline. I would read and recommend this asap!
promiscuous behavior is not what fuels sex trafficking, if you look at that stats it's lack of fathers in the home.
@remiharmon don't give out your ideas free to the internet! Your passionate about the subject YOU SHOULD WRITE THE BOOK
“I watched Reality shows up until a point”!!!!... Sista Soulja is so right with this:
There’s only so much that you can watch/digest... the confusion, misconceptions, definitions.... sad 😔
Facts...
I named my daughter after one of her characters. Akemi
My lil cousin is named winter after the book
Beautiful name🌺
So cute!
Lovely
Beautiful name 😍
I read _The Coldest Winter Ever_ in high school. It was such a popular read during that time. Some of everybody was walking around with that pink book with the red lips on the cover lol. Definitely will be reading the sequel. I think I may need to reread the first one
Yesss everybody wanted to borrow that book
I had the bluish-Purple cover lol
Yes I discovered the coldest winter ever when I was a teen. I been waiting ten years and.... yeah...you'll see.
Facts.im a Male and I was hooked on that book.her and sharon Draper are my favorite writers
Yes reread it, you’ll have a different perspective about it reading it years later.
I remember writing her about how I hated Midnight.. she actually responded and schooled me.. loved most of works...I read that book cover to cover.. still got a copy
I feel really conflicted about midnight. On the one hand he lives by a code and works hard to live by it. And he's extremely intelligent, and disciplined.
On the other hand- he picks up another woman when he's trying to rescue his wife...lol
I hate the fact it had to be the narrative of a strong intelligent brother that falls for the female from a complete different back ground.
Yes, I wrote her too after reading and she wrote me back!
@@dionneodom2709 that also bothered me. When it comes to his second wife her father is a black American. Who is not such a great guy, and her uncle is much worse. That whole side of the family are just awful. Her Japanese- ness is what midnight feels- they share a bond of ninjahood. In the latest book, there is a scene between chiasa and midnight where she refers to herself as "his Japanese wife" and calls Akemi his Korean wife. Even though Akemi is only half Korean- and also half Japanese just like Chiasa! They both grew up in Japan. Akemi didn't even know her mom was Korean until she was in her teens. She also spent more actual time in Japan then Chiasa - whose military family traveled often and occasionally visited family in America. She knew she had other cultural influences in her family but akemi had no clue. She identifird completely as Japanese. So this weird denial of her black American-ess and relegation of Akemi to only her korean-ness, is super off to me. Like, Huh? What point is being made here?
I'm hoping its a point being made consciously about internalized misogyny and racism (where chiasa equates her privilege of favoured wife status with her "not like other girls", exotic status. Maybe also commentary on the competitive nature of polygamous marriage? )
We also learn in the latest book that midnight has acquired two new wives - one Sudanese, one from Oman. But its made clear that his exotic "japanese" wife is the favorite.
I hate midnight. I don't care what she says.
Sent a copy to my 19 year old nephew who's in prison and he literally read that book in 2 days! Then passed it to the other young men. This book is certainly a classic!
I met her once at Howard Univ many years ago, at a time many African Americans were misinformed about Africa cos there was no social media and she schooled her audience on the lies the Western World shares about Africa that people are just learning the truth about know. She's very nice, honest, kind, knowledgeable and well travelled. The only issue I have is that she still hasn't been able to turn Coldest Winter Ever into a movie after all these years, when I know for a fact that she's been trying for decades, but I'm not surprised though, cos she's a black female author and things aren't easy for them...
She spoke about the movie in the previous breakfast club interview. She wants to movie to be authentic; she still wants creative control. This is good for us that means the movie will be good and I'm willing to wait another 20 years of I have too.
I hope tyler perry catch up
@@cheynachaneille Speaking from my experience, I actually tried to connect her with a NYC based producer on campus that same day who came to discuss her movie. I gave her the name of the producer, and told her she was around that day, but she didn't seem too enthusiastic to get in touch because at the time the rights were already acquired. But I don't agree with that "if it takes 20 years" mentality. It's been long enough already and who knows what tomorrow holds? Death gives no warning and major illnesses don't give advance notice. I'm not wishing her bad, but that's life. She might wait around too long and it just might not get done at all...
Ava Duvernay has the insight to do the characters justice.
Spike Lee could direct this movie with her🍿, Wow !!
She's interesting her voice needs 2 be heard more
She dropped some precious gems in this interview. I look forward to reading her new book.
The book is wild
I’m ready to order now from Amazon AND Barnes and Noble Lol
Sista Souja is preaching on this show today!!!
She always she started as an Activist very powerful sister!!
Nah she's teaching🙂
Its night & day compared 2 da Sister Souljah that eye remember from da 90's who was more raw, radical, pro black activist ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾B1st B-Only 🔥🔥🔥🔥 fast forward NOW she has changed drastically being much much more milder and soft spoken only as a author & humanitarian/kuumbaya 🤔🙄😒😔
🖤🖤🖤
Porsche story, A Deeper Love Inside is my favorite. That book makes me cry tears tears.
Same!! I love that book 📚
Me to...my mom's is bipolar and it made me see her in a whole other light❣️
@@dondiva531 hi Rita 💕and yes it helped me understand my mother as much more.
@@heyritarenee that's a beautiful thing my love 💕 I'm happy for us lol!!
No Disrespect By Sista Soulja 💕 .. ALL GIRLS AND YOUNG ADULTS ARE ADVISED TO BUY THIS BOOK AND REFER TO IT AS NEEDED
She's right about cancel culture and political correctness. It's like we can't make mistakes as a kid and learn from them. She's evolved herself. You can see that in the interview. She reminds me on how Malcolm X became after traveling to Mecca for the pilgrimage. Loved this interview.
I think there’s a difference between cancel culture and holding someone accountable.
This has me looking at people's side remarks more differently, if ain't true about what they saying brush it off.
How long do we hold someone accountable after they learned their lesson?
The Coldest Winter Ever, is legendary!!!! Every young lady with any roots to the hood, need to read 🤞🏾
I need to order it 😩 but don't know where on what website.
Souljah: don’t give it away, DONT GIVE IT AWAY
Ye: I won’t ... so Winter is getting out and wants to do a reality show
🙄🙄😯😯
😂😂😂
Damn, I shouldn't have the read comments
right I was like damn just tell the story then lol
Yeah I caught that. So lame
Right, why did Angela say that.
I'd remember her on the Donahue Show spitting that dragon fire knowledge.
When she says, “for example.” My soul jumps up. Brilliant woman.
She definitely speaks the truth when it comes to this generation. There too sensitive and they don’t respect the Hip Hop artist that paved the way for them!!!
I’m definitely ordering coldest winter ever and the sequel. This Queen is a genius for taking a break for 15 years to match her prison sentence. Genius!!!!!! Is she rich??? I NEED HER TO BE RICH RICH!! And she’s right. ALOT of people copied her book.
For sho she definitely rich rich
@@preciousb2020 yessssssssss!!!!
Need her to win the Nobel Prize for Literature next! Peace.
Yeeaasss for.the rich.rich
it's not so much a sequel but the next chapter or level so to say I won't spoil it for u I read it in a day I'm honestly still wrestling with so much from it. it was so deep and so much symbolism and certain personification it's heavy
I’m not the judge, but there IS a judge. Wow
#Facts
i was sleepy when i heard that i woku up
Thats the utmost truth
JEHOVAH
This woman is protecting her Spirit at all cost..
Peace & Blessings Sista...
In the midst of me watching this interview, a person I’d had a terrible blowout with came to my door. It was my opportunity to squash it. Sister Souljah’s energy reminded me of who I really am and who I aim to be. Great, great interview.
Sister Souljah speaks the way she writes; thoughtfully, descriptively, truthfully and with wisdom. A BAD Sister. Read The Coldest Winter Ever years ago. I am 60 now. If her book Midnight is ever made into a movie, Lance Gross should be cast as Midnight. Everything Sister Souljah has written is a literally treasure.
I agree! I always said Lance Gross as Midnight. Now we have another front runner which is the chocolate guy from the show Queen Sugar.
@@sashanco4212 Yes!! And he is African African. 😷😉
@@sashanco4212 I just thought that while watching the last episode of queen sugar!!!! U right
I was thinking the main character from snowfall?
@@venusflytrap795 Nope not the guy in Snowfall. Midnight is described as a finnnne smooth black male. On second thought i'm sticking with Lance Gross to protray Midnight if a movie is made.
I love ALL her books...the story of Winters sister Porsha is also amazing. Most people don't talk about it but it was a great read also.
That's my favorite!
I was wondering why this wasn’t mentioned I really loved that book
Gonna check it out
It was better actually
Yesssss i love that book
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. Sista Soulja is such a gem
Sista drops SOOOO MANY GEMSSS through speaking and her books.....
I SO LOVE her and can't WAIT to cozy up and read tha new book🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Wow! She just said “In our community we don’t have a consensus about anything!” The sense of community was first taught at your dining room table when the entire family broke bread together, prayed together wo any distractions. My mom even turned the tv off when we ate dinner. Then everything was reaffirmed at church. Information was disseminated about civil rights and what was important to us came through the church. It also taught us About the importance of family, good and evil, love, kindness, serving and above all Yah’s Word which gave us knowledge about every aspect of our life. Then the next generation came and since they didn’t like getting up early on Sunday and being at church all day; once they had children they offered them an option of going to church and allowed society and social media to be their teacher! Thus the result of where we are now!
Yes and no. But on the other side the church allowed influences from the outside. The church changed also.
I’m currently reading “No Disrespect” right now... so I’m excited for this!!!!
Oooh! Enjoy! That book was deliciously good. She's an amazing author.
It's my favorite of her books! She was raw and real about her own life. Years ago I reached out to her and she gracefully responded. Her work touched me and the masses. She truly a beautiful soul.
Yeah that’s my favorite book,I’m honestly not a fan of coldest winter ever ... but “no disrespect” I love that one.
I really in my opinion thought this was better than the coldest winter. So many people didn’t read this it’s actually her autobiography
No disrespect is her best work. Second is coldest winter ever.
SO glad she said, "Don't spoil the plot, Ang!" 😩👏🏾
Exactly! And she still said something about the plot. Seems like she had to disrespect some kind of way😤
Right she is always having to be told that, she is always over setting up her questions you would think she know by now.
Like seriously!!! Why would she do that??? Makes it harder get the book when the story has been told.
Something about this Yee woman leaves her suspect...
She didn’t “tell the plot of the story”. There’s more to it.... than Winter doing a reality show. However..... it wasn’t what I expected. But, please still support
Great interview I read the Coldest Winter ever back in the early 2000s. Been a fan since. When Sister Souljah was younger she was a powerful speaker and P.E. use to have her in their videos and music. I did not know she wrote Tyrell. I saw the movie on Netflix. Ppl who are quiet and observant always amaze me. They're always thinking. Most powerful ppl speak less, listen more. I never underestimate a quiet person.
Tyrell that had the dude from the chi who got fired in it?
Except for Yee she really needs to grow up. She ain't 15 no more.
I saw Tyrel I thought that was good.
They were so silent when she spoke , we need to hear more from her
I literally was just thinking of her. Glad she is doing well.
I read the Coldest Winter Ever 8 times...it is truly a classic!
I remember back in middle school it seemed like every girl had this book and they loved it
All the boys in my hood had it too. :) I guess folks who were into reading, read it.
I’ll never forget meeting her at my HBCU PVU! I still remember what she told us
Which was?
Being born, raised and living in the U.S has created an obsession with race. Facts.
This was the first book that I read and connected with I remember telling all my friends it was like a movie in my head...it sparked my love for reading and i know I’m not alone...there is so much knowledge available in books and I think she elevated and sparked a whole generation’s consciousness... I know she did mine...God Bless her!!!
Takes me back to her speaking on Public Enemy joints...Rhapsody reminds me of her
I agree... If anyone ever does a movie about her life, Rhapsody would be the first person I think could pull it off as Sistah Souljah.
Black don't crack!
Grew up listening to her, this Sister ain't no joke.
It does to if you don't use lotion or something.
Sista Soulja is amazing & she looks good too!Respect to this Queen💖👸🏽😻
This is a true Queen. Well versed, respected, loving, all of the above.
I'm glad she back..she been silent for years.but much respect to a real queen beside myself 🥰
No Disrespect is still my favorite me I was highly impressed with this book. A true inspiration for my books
Yo, Rhapsody reminded me of Sister Souljah when I first checked her out
This is a classic. I miss Sister Soulja's voice. All the questions were so well thought out! Kudos to Yee, Charla and Envy. Great job! And I love Nia Long. Great choice!
it was her book that started my adventure of reading evrything and anything that made sense.
I forgot about her. She use to be on point with history and reality back in the day. Big ups to Sister Souljah!
Mashaa’Allah my Muslim sister in faith! Such a blessing and it’s refreshing to hear Wisdom from a beautiful Black humble knowledgeable woman
Al Hamdulillah
7.35 mins in and when Sister Soulijah says don't spoil the plot I laugh because you low-key know that Angela Yes spill the beans 🤣🤣🤣
@Gia Smith I was just thinking that. I was like Angela is going to mess this up!
The first time I ever saw her was on A Different World.
O! I forgot about that! That really was a good show.
First of all, how in the F did I not get notified about this interview? Back in 97-98 we were reading (stealing each other’s books) and fighting over this shit like a MF in Chicago. Omar Tyree, Nurit Folkes “Triangle of Sins” Terri Woods “True To the Game,” Vicki Stringer “Let That Be The Reason,” but I grew up in the 90’s “A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste” posters and shit! Love this interview.
Coldest Winter Ever is a right of passage for teens. Yes it was a great cautionary story. I’m going to buy it again 🙏🏽 thanks Sista Soulja
I’ve alway been a fan, she just so real Nd raw. Her book Coldest Winter still undefeated!!
I started off reading Goosebumps as a youngster... My Mom had The Coldest Winter Ever when it first came out in 99'... She kept me sheltered honestly but her letting me read this book at 14 opened my eyes and I'm so grateful.
I'm 32 years old and I been waiting for this for years when I was in group homes the coldest winter ever book was all I had I have read it no Lie more then 500 times I even sent sista an email to make a movie for it and put me in it lol I'm sooooo happy I cant wait to read the book omg I'm so happy 😍
I really enjoyed this interview. I remember her from when I was younger. Everything that people call woke now she was saying over 20yrs ago. Sistah was definitely way ahead of her time
I love to hear her speak. I have always called my daughters Sis Soulja when we are discussing certain issues and things and I am 42 and I remember when I first heard sista Soulja and I was in awe because you didn't see young women speak TRUTH to power and now you have no sista Soulja in this generation.
Sister Soulja is a Queen! I love when she was at the table with top Black Leading Men and Checking them on Truth and Reality.
My older sister gave me her copy of "the coldest winter ever" summer before my freshmen year and I finished it in 3 days. It sparked my love for reading! I ordered "life after death" and I'm waiting to read it because I'm waiting on my copy of "a deeper love inside". I'm obsessed all over again lol
I can listen to her speak all day. She’s always awesome in interviews - you all should check out her old interviews too and panels!
Shout out to Sista for being a true Sister all these years. True to the Red Black and Green. True to black people. Uncorrupted untainted, honorable.
hard to believe she is 57 years old wow she looks younger younger
No way 😯. She looks 32 years old
FUN FACT: Sister Soulja name is referenced in the first episode of the show MARTIN. It's during the scene when Gina and Pam enter Martin's Apartment and confont him.
Sista Soulja is Dope. For Charlamagne, that shout out at the End had to feel good
OMG she is spitting knowledge. This women is conscious and real.
Healthy answers for all the questions she answered.
"Black man, where is your army!?"
