I immediately fell in love with his writing, the story and the characters. Especially, Julius Sr. and Julius Jr. Their bond was\u00a0special and touching.<\/p>\n<p>Novelist Blacc Topp does an extraordinary job of evoking emotion as well as conveying the inner workings of the mind and heart of his characters. His\u00a0writing style is raw, sensual and thought\u00a0provoking. He draws you in, and seduces you with his vivid and detailed descriptions. It&#8217;s as if he&#8217;s holding your hand\u00a0and guiding\u00a0you through\u00a0an\u00a0experience you won&#8217;t\u00a0forget.<\/p>\n<p>Blacc Topp is a creative genius and a master of words.\u00a0His unique and original style has taken this genre to another level.<\/p>\n<p>I highly recommend <em>The Hustle Chronicles,<\/em> and any\u00a0book he pens. I promise, you won&#8217;t be disappointed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ordinaryservant.com\/?attachment_id=3041\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3041\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3041\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ordinaryservant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/10981441_933932406625734_3841649948317554684_n-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.ordinaryservant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/10981441_933932406625734_3841649948317554684_n-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.ordinaryservant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/10981441_933932406625734_3841649948317554684_n-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.ordinaryservant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/10981441_933932406625734_3841649948317554684_n.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Novelist Blacc Topp was born to a father that was a gangster turned preacher and a mother that was a singer, artist, and scholar. He was born into a family of preachers, pimps, prostitutes, drug drealers, dopefiends, and squares. Blacc Topp was raised on the streets of South Dallas, Texas. After the death of his father, feeling as though he had nowhere to turn he turned to the gang.\u00a0The neighborhood gang, Dixon Circle 357um Gangsta Crips is where he would learn to become ruthless and unfeeling. Although he was deep in the gang and game, he continued his studies for fear that his mother would make him move to Florida.<\/p>\n<p>By the age nineteen he had been shot three times and was on his way to the Texas Department of Corrections\u00a0with a forty year prison sentence for distribution of narcotics. While inside he lost his youngest sister to the violence of drugs in 1996.\u00a0After serving seven years, he was granted parole (mainly due to his mother\u2019s efforts). He used the education that he obtained inside to land a job at a top engineering firm in Texas. He used his love of word play to push himself to local fame on the hip-hop scene in Texas and Florida but, he would lose his mother to cancer in 2006, only to lose his oldest sister to cancer in 2008 and he knew something had to change. He began to chronicle his life, his mishaps and his capers which gave birth to The Hustle Chronicles, his debut novel and soundtrack of the same name.<\/p>\n<p>You can follow him at:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.novelistblacctopp.com\/\">Novelist Blacc Topp<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mrblacctopp\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MRBLACCTOPP\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/novelistblacctopp\/\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Publisher: Blacc Star Media Group ISBN-10: 1622093712 ISBN-13: 978-1622093717 Price: $10.00 Purchase: Blacc Star Media\u00a0| Amazon &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Description Julius Jr.s&#8217; childhood is far less than perfect.
