Voiceless: The Journal of an Underground Starving Artist

by Michael Barclift

Whatever happens to a dream destroyed? In this authors opinion, you write about it. Aspiring Hip Hop artist and founder of the group Dahavknotz (the have nots) turned author, Michael Barclift writes a heart wrenching tale of growing up with a dream that dies a slow and painful death due to a combination of factors. After having such a promising start to his career and being crowned as one of the most talented and profound artist by industry peers and competitors, lifestyle choices and decisions eventually wore him down until he began to question the value of life itself. At a crossroads between living, dying or just existing, Barclift started to write journals instead of rhymes. After 2 years outside of the music scene, those journals became classic American literature. "Voiceless" is a brutally honest and pure self reflection of one mans life that reaches epic emotional depth and speaks to anyone who has ever had a dream.

Brutally Honest and Powerful

If you read this you will want to call the author give him a hug because you will care about his struggle
You may also want to smack him, curse him, lecture him or tease him for his crazy decisions and opinions about the world. You will feel every emotion except boredom. Even during the boring part. 😅
