Terrance dean

Who I'd like to meet:

Newsweek: "In a new memoir, a former MTV staffer dishes on the rap industry's persistent "down-low" culture. He doesn't name names, but it's a fascinating peek inside hip-hop's last taboo." New York Magazine: "After all those shirtless rappers with their antigay lyrics, not to mention the ambiguous ones for R. Kelly’s “Trapped in the Closet,” someone has written the inevitable gay-hip-hop exposé." Or, "A memoir gives the lowdown on the down low in the world of hip-hop." VIBE Magazine: "Though Dean does not name names, he has found the strength to be his true self and reveal his own struggles as a down low man in the entertainment industry." The Guardian UK: "If homophobic rappers are looking for a dubious sense of 'authenticity', then they can just as easily find it in Dean's background as in the most masculine of gangsta rappers." Or, "It is an explosive exposé." Essence: "...his descriptive, page-turning exposé about his closeted same-sex romances with Hollywood and Hip-Hop's leading Black men will be a rude awakening for many and healing for others."
