Bøger af Ashton Lee

Versatile (verse-a-tile) is a personal, unfiltered tour through internal struggles, self love and... butts? Not too many can pull that off, but Ashton Lee shows that he is a master at mixing humor and heart with wordplay. This book's title also serves as a nod to Richmond, VA's longest running open mic venue: Tuesday Verses. In fact, some of the book's poems and lyrics have been performed over the years on the venue's stage.

"Mixtape: The Book" is a raw and humorous dive into the creative spirit of Ashton Lee. This collection of poetry and illustrations comes together by the concept of hip-hop's favorite promotional staple, the mix-tape. Staying true to the cultural nature of this concept, the book not only to showcases Ashton's talents, but informs the audience of what's to come. This "mix-tape" explores various themes such as the struggle to reach one's potential, being a black nerd, monsters (literal and figurative), the uselessness of having a crush, "nice guys," and providing sympathy for haters. There's even a tribute to one of his early influences, rapper MF Doom. So get ready for these #Barz and visuals in book form as the canvas in your mind catches these revolutionary and creative hands, bruh. I think I said that right.
