New Book: Stick To Your Vision: Young Maestro Goes to School

Canada’s indisputable Godfather of Hip Hop Maestro Fresh Wes has unveiled his newest release — an inspirational children’s book, Stick To Your Vision: Young Maestro Goes to School.

Telling the tale of a young Maestro as he finds new adventures, both in school and as he’s introduced to the world of hip hop, readers follow along as he competes in the school’s writing contest against ‘Julia the Great’ and ‘Hakeem the Dream.’ Nervous — but ready — Wes draws inspiration from his family, teachers, friend and mentor DJ Greg, plus all that he has learned from Hip Hop, to find the power of his pen.

Stick to Your Vision: Young Maestro Goes to School is an extension of Williams’ now-signature Stick to Your Vision brand; he released an inspirational memoir, Stick to Your Vision: How to Get Past the Hurdles and Haters to Get Where You Want to Be (2010) and Stick to Your Vision was the first single released off his fifth studio album, Built to Last (1998).

With its foreword written by Public Enemy’s Chuck D, and content long-credited for inspiring fellow Canadian hip hop star Drake, the original Stick to Your Vision book has been incorporated by multiple school curriculums as required reading and, together with his 2017 TED Talks on the subject of self-revision, have seen many guided on the right path by the multi-talented visionary.
