Not much more than the TV ads that sold it. Yet it was entertaining. Ali's talent as a quick witted persona is displayed as much as his poweress in the ring--both displayed well in Ali Rap. I'd like to recommend this especially for young people who start like off behind an 8 ball. Those who didn't know the glory of The Greatest need to. I'm yet honored to have lived during a time that I watch him happen--first in the ring and then in the world. He got a message through about being black, being human well being Ali that meant as much as any speech maker in history and reached those who needed it the most.

This collection of remembrances are poignant and right on. I'd say anyone who admires Ali should have this.

It was superb from inside out. It simply is a must buy and I highly recommend it not only to boxing fans but all those who love a story with meaning.

Ali Rap is an awesome display of the mental side of Ali. He used rap and rhymes to put together CLASSIC interviews with various people, most notably, Howard Cossell. He had so much fun giving interviews and showing off in front of the camera, only to back up EXACTLY what he said, in the ring. I think that this video is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I was entertained by it!!

Ali's words float like a butterfly in this wonderful novel. If you admired Ali and his poetic style, this wonderful book is for you. Half of the book is pictures with corresponding Ali quotes on the opposite pages.

A fun read for anyone interested in Ali or his words.
