Drake

2020
Drake is more than record-setting performer. He is also the composer and lyricist of his songs. While this is not unusual in rap world, it does set him apart from many of the best-selling singers of all time. However, the music business is a fast-changing world, and few stars have remained at the top for very long. Drake's talents as a songwriter and an actor in addition to being a performer will certainly help his longevity. It may be that his era has just begun.

my escape from North Korea

"Eunsun Kim was born in North Korea, one of the most secretive and oppressive countries in the modern world. ... By the time she was eleven years old, Eunsun's father and grandparents had died of starvation, and Eunsun was in danger of the same. Finally, her mother decided to escape North Korea with Eunsun and her sister, not knowing that they were embarking on a journey that would take them nine long years to complete. Before finally reaching South Korea and freedom, Eunsun and her family would live homeless, fall into the hands of Chinese human traffickers, survive a North Korean labor camp, and cross the deserts of Mongolia on foot. ... Told with grace and courage, her memoir is a riveting expos? of North Korea's totalitarian regime and, ultimately, a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit"--Provided by publisher.
