Candy Licker

So Slate.com has written their piece on street lit. I think it's now a requirement for media outlets to do at least one article about the phenonmenon sweeping the nation. This one is an extended review of Candy Licker by Noire. Once you bypass the stuff that you've read a million times before (the definition of street lit, an explanation of it's Donald Goines/Iceburg Slim roots, and details about the "dirty, violent" nature of the text) the author goes to extreme lengths to uncover the identity of Noire. Geez, he had mad time on his hands.
