The Sharter

A Comedic Journey Out of Hip-Hop Hypnosis

De: Alfonso F.R.

Narrado por: Alfonso F.R.

Humor is healthy. Author & narrator Alfonso F.R. provides a vital tool for snapping millions out of hip-hop hypnosis, this audiobook. You’ve heard a disgusting hip-hop song today, haven’t you? The most pervasive poison in society is difficult to avoid. This "music" isn’t to empower, educate, or motivate you. It’s to hypnotize you into becoming a hedonistic derelict. Do you think it’s natural to listen to percussion instruments with a guy talking about drugs, violence, and depravity?

The tribalistic war drums tap into your instincts to condition you into a life of idiocy. It isn’t music. It’s mind control for slaves. There’s a good chance you or somebody you know is tuned to this vibration of imbecilic immorality, vicarious delusionality, and squalor. It’s by design. The whole genre is as organic as astroturf. It doesn’t have to be this way. Snap out of hip-hop hypnosis now. The Sharter is a mirror for generations. It’s time to look within and ask ourselves if rap music is “good art” or a weapon against us? Is the music we’ve listened to for decades trash? How will we go forth after generations of hip-hop hypnosis? There is a solution.

Author Alfonso F.R. launches his own psychological operations and this one is a tragicomedy-crime-classic; the most important allegory of our time. We can end the madness right now but you’re going to have to do yourself a favor: listen to this book, laugh your ass off, move forward with your life, spread the soil; lotus flowers start to bloom.

The Sharter delivers! Great topic,excellent story!

Thoroughly enjoyed this one. As a fan of old school hip-hop, & seeing what rap culture has become, it is embarrassing. This book follows a group of buddies (& their inter-connected web of friends & mutual acquaintances) as they dive head 1st into hip-hop hypnosis - some deeper than others. From drug gun-play in any-ghetto USA, to sacrificing for the label, to humiliation ritual imposing record execs., & private prison owners, to seeing just how dark & gritty things can & do get in the industry, behind the velvet rope. The Sharter hits all marks for the sophisticated truther with ghetto tendencies. Highly recommend!

A Surreal Picaresque Masquerading As A Blistering Satire Of The Hip Hop World

The Sharter takes some commitment at the beginning, having to wade through layers of various forms of excrement as the aptly titled book refers to.

Rap and shit are a big theme. The culture comes off as morally and literally stained.

But keep paddling through the brown, River Styx of Rap and The Sharter picks up speed like a runaway subway bound for Hell.

There's dozens of characters and Alfonzo stays true to their voices throughout.

Weaving them together across multiple chapters is no easy feat.

On the audio side Alfonzo plays every character and adopts both their literary and spoken voices .

With a modicum of knowledge of today's crumbling hip hop, scene you can spot a lot of the players and at the end no one comes off exceedingly well.

There are no heroes, just people awakening from Hip Hop Hypnosis.

Hilarious
