Creature, NYCs hardest working hip hop salesman has a new book out: The Underdog’s Manifesto. Amazon snip:
Part memoir, part survival manual, The Underdog’s Manifesto isn’t just one artist’s story? It’s every artist’s story. It’s our laughter in the face of disbelief; our resistance of corporate domination and social apathy; our commitment to crafting something original despite our culture’s fascination with derivative, disposable mush. Underdog, in short, is the anti-how-to book. Creature’s aim isn’t sell another rags to riches homily but to remind us all through his candid reflections, raw wisdom and generosity of spirit that there’s no shame in a hard day’s hustle.
There is an excerpt on Creature’s myspace blog, but they should really give the joint away as a PDF and sell paper copies. Ask Andrew Dubber, there is no scarcity in the new economy when your product promo copies are digital.

Creature is a cool dude. Met him at the TME studios in NYC last winter. He didn’t even try to sell me a CD. But I bought one anyway. Cop his book.
