"A whole lot of initiations happen every day. You hear about them on the news, but you don't know it was an initiation. You hear about somebody getting shot somewhere in New York, and nobody knows why that person got shot; nine times out of ten it was a gang initiation. I am a three-star general in the Bloods, so I know what's going on. The majority of crime in New York City is 'cause of gangs; drugs, killings, stabbings, robberies, even the bullshit car theft, the fucking pettiest crimes and misdemeanors are all 'cause of gangs." Kasino, from his testimonial in It's All Good
A gritty, graphic, and gripping exposé of the underworld and its inhabitants, It's All Good, the first monograph by Boogie, presents the predators and the prey in the drug game today. Shot in New York City's most notorious neighborhoodsBushwick, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and QueensbridgeBoogie gained intimate access into a world few dare to venture, a world closed to outsiders, a world of crackheads, junkies, and gangsters. From the cops patrolling the project roofs to the addicts overdosing on the streets, It's All Good chronicles ghetto life in stark, heart-stopping images and intense testimonials. Boogie brings us to a place few will leave and most will stay, a place where escape is one rock, one shot, one glock away. |

This book changed my life. Simple and plain. It's what I have been looking for, for ages. Boogie is a master at what he does. The pictures are phenominal and the stories go great with the book and really set the mood and imprint the whole book into your head. As a street photographer, I look up to Boogie more than anyone. And this book has be a huge inspiration and push for me. I definetly recomend this book. Big ups to Boogie for his efforts! One.

This is a great book with nice pictures telling a real story! The photographer has put together his pictures page next to page with eye for detail, contrasts and storytelling. The written stories are vivid and an amplification for the pictures.
It's not printed on glossy paper and that's a pity for the quality of the pictures. (but maybe there are some limited editions printed on glossy paper...) Nevertheless great book and a must have for your collection! (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-10-09 09:42:44 EST)
