Overview

Create your own blueprint for creativity in the pages of this journal pulsing with the style and flavor of hip-hop’s beats, rhymes, and life—designed by an award-winning music journalist, writing professor, and media coach.

The classic feel of your composition notebook, upscaled to align with your luxe and literary aspirations: Get Your Mind Write is a free-flowing, hip-hop-nuanced journal with room for writing casual notes and beginning your own literary masterpieces.

Along with light-hearted prompts and listicles, Get Your Mind Write also features prompts inspiring you to make art while listening to your favorite tracks and others inviting you to write pieces using as many of the words printed on the page as possible. And as hip-hop celebrates fifty years, Iandoli invites serious examination of its ethos, with prompts like, “In what ways has the ‘hustle harder’ mantra supported your growth? In what ways has it held you back, or proven to be an obstacle more than a resource?”

Drawing on her expertise media coaching up-and-coming musicians, Iandoli offers ways to dig deep and mine the emotional and mental depths that give rise to great art—and strong bars. Get Your Mind Write places the power of the pen in the writer’s hands—a tool for personal growth and deeper self-understanding that helps you channel your love of the music and culture into your own lyrics.
