About this listen
Can U Love Me is a memoir about Nicholas “NinosCorner” Battle, a young black child growing up in his hometown of Shreveport, Louisiana. A single-parent household, coupled with the “crack” epidemic, made life for this '80s baby very challenging.
The introduction of hip-hop gave him an outlet to cope with the struggles he faced within his environment. It provided the soundtrack and the blueprint to his life and formed the foundation necessary for him to navigate through all the challenges the world would throw at him.
“The fuel behind my motivation was music, especially hip-hop. Scarface taught me why I only saw emotion from a hardened male after a death. 2Pac taught me about the struggles of teen pregnancy within my community. Nas taught me that I can be whatever I want to be because the world is mine. In all honesty, hip-hop raised me, and in some instances, hip-hop saved my life.” (Nicholas “NinosCorner” Battle)
