Overview

Cyclops Papyrus & Books issued The Sandmann’s Journal’s seventh and final volume on February 22, 2022. This publication marked the conclusion of the seven-volume book series by the Grammy-nominated artist and author Wilfred Kanu Jr. The series was announced in Toronto, Canada, with the first volume published in London, UK. It encircles a wide range of topics centered around the rapid transformation of Western and global traditional cultures, particularly with the help of social media and wireless technologies.

Some of the main highlights of this seventh volume are the support of women’s rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, and Law Enforcement. It sheds light on the various forms of discrimination against LGBTQIA+ community members and discusses some notable events in the Hip Hop scene. Volume 7 is a continuation of Volume 6. As a unique promotional rollout, this volume was released in Brussels, Belgium, with limited edition physical and digital copies reaching the global market after select fans received them.

Sandmann’s Journal debates the encouragement of radical feminism on the romantic relationship between heterosexual men and women, especially noting how social media platforms, wireless technology, the mainstream media, government agencies, and major corporations enabled a global cultural shift from traditional to secular mentality. It discusses modern-day racism and patrimonial alienation. There are entries on navigating through the court of public opinion, misandry, divorce, and the patriarchy.

These entries, while factual, are not intended to have journalistic outcomes in any way. The author intends readers to use them for educational purposes, not political or religious justification. As a musician who started rapping in the early 1990s under the stage name Freddy Will, he activated his independent music career in 2006. His literary and publishing career began in 2009. He believed there is a gloomy misconception that Hip Hop’s lyrical themes promote gun violence, misogyny, materialism, homophobia, and blasphemy.

The musician who grew up under the teachings of Abraham is not a devout Christian. From his point of view, he was an apostate Catholic who composed pieces of Hip Hop music and lyrics inspired by his experiences during two civil wars, life as a refugee, a stint in the streets, and his life as a musician, author, impresario, and businessman. Ideally, Freddy Will does not see himself as a propagator of gang culture, gun violence, misogyny, materialism, homophobia, or vulgarity. This misconception of Hip Hop was resolute.
