Iceberg Slim takes us for a ride this time not only through the harrowing world of a pimp, but through his brain, his soul, and his psyche. From the corrupt LAPD to a broken heart, Iceberg recounts woes that the average Joe can’t even fathom. This is Iceberg, in California, broken down into a million pieces of anger, wisdom, but ready for a shift in his own consciousness. This time around, he puts the emphasis on reality with his collection of personal essays. Iceberg Slim took the public into the raw, unseen, predatory reality of America with “Pimp”. His tales serve as a chilling reminder that we are all still inmates of one prison or another, and the time to break free has arrived. In “The Naked Soul of Iceberg Slim,” the fierce and lyrical icon for criminal reformation describes himself as “ill…from America’s fake façade of justice and democracy.” For Iceberg, the illness may have been a detriment, but for us, it’s a gift.
