Book Description
Michelle Muir's debut poetry collection brings a new and confident voice in the hip hop genre to the printed page. Muir's poetry skillfully blends the language of the contemporary urban environment with her personal take on African-Canadian rhythmic and polyrhythmic stye. The playful candence of her voice leaps from the pages of Nuff Said, compelling the reader forward on a wild ride through music, life, education, community pride, love, erotic desire, political irony and probing questions of race, class and gender.
"Poetry of this genre requires a voice that is powerful and full of conviction ... that is what the urban voice is. Michelle captures that voice every time with her blend of prose, music and poetry; you get the the rhythm, the sounds and the message." - Craig Manniz, Offshoot Communications
"Michelle's poetry works ... whether you read it or hear it... there is beat and timing and there is message... that is the stuff great songs are made of." - Jelleestone, Canadian Hip Hop recording artist

I Love this book! So many subjects and 'real' street. Hearing the author's voice reading her own stuff on the CD, made this book even more enjoyable. I love her rhythmic style. I keep going back to some of my favourites.My Fantastic Voyage to Planet Irresistible and De Malton Man Dem
