That's My Word: Bay Area Rappers Write Their Life Stories Co-Presented by Litquake

Join legendary Bay Area rappers Black C and Mac Mall as they discuss gripping stories from their recently published memoirs with KQED Arts & Culture senior editor Gabe Meline. In vivid, unflinching detail, Black C's A Part of Survival and Mac Mall's My Opinion shed light on the Bay Area's street life, drug trade and pimp culture of the 1980s and 1990s—and how the resourceful artists turned their setbacks into widespread success during hip-hop's Golden Age.
Rapper Mac Mall wears a red hoodie and looks into the camera.
