Danny Brown is making a children’s book

Is there anything this man can’t do?

During an interview with Australian radio station triple j, Danny Brown revealed that he’s working on a Dr. Seuss-inspired children’s book. “It’s been taking me forever to finish. It’s really about self-esteem in black girls, I guess,” he told the show’s host Kyran Wheatley.

“You know how black women do so much – process their hair, change their eye colour – it’s really about a little girl who does all these things to herself and changes herself and she realises she’s just better off the way she is.”

“It’s something for my daughter,” he explained. “I’ve got to finish it though, I want it to be real Dr. Seuss-y. The Grinch, Green Eggs And Ham, and One Fish, Two Fish – what was going on in that guy’s brain to be able to write those things? I think I AM Dr. Seuss! I’m The Grinch, I’m all his characters come to life in rap music.”

Elsewhere during the interview, Brown said he’s working on the follow-up to his 2013 album Old with regular producers Skywlkr, Paul White and The Alchemist. Watch the video for Brown’s Rustie collab Attak – Crack’s #8th best track of 2014 – below.
