About this listen

The long awaited republishing of NYHC Legend, John Bloodclot Joseph's raw and unfiltered autobiography. As real as it gets!

Updated with new chapters.

In his newly updated autobiography, NYHC legend John Bloodclot Joseph recounts his hard times and spiritual redemption. A traumatic childhood in foster homes was just the beginning of John's evolution. Before fronting one of the most important bands in the underground punk scene, the Cro-Mags, John faced homelessness, addiction, betrayal and insanity. Still, even his success couldn't save him from a relapse that set him back to square one - rock bottom. The book is a raw and unapologetic autobiography about his life. Consider yourself warned.

I couldn't get enough!

what an incredible story journey. Three beginning dinners a lot like my childhood. fortunately not as extreme as some of John's struggles. John is an incredible story teller. I am so glad he narrated his work. looks like I'm on to PMA and ordering Meat is for Pussies. Great job John thanks for sharing. Peace be with you!

PMA

I think listening to John tell his life story himself is the only way to get the full effect. I was locked into this book read from start to finish. PMA

Very inspirational

The book does tend to drag a little in the middle but overall it has a great message and quiet entertaining.

Definitely give it a listen !

Awesome!

Thank you for the inspiration John Joseph!! Listened to this book after hearing his interview on the Rich Roll podcast. What a story. His will and spirit to rise above after all of the hardship and craziness he has been through will be an inspiration to me on my own journey for a long time to come. All the best in the future John🤘🏼

Fascinating

An incredible story of redemption and coming back from the odds. If JJ can get through what he did, anyone can escape from anything. Joseph comes across as a real, no holds barred bad ass ... but an extremely compassionate and empathetic person. His performance of the book was awesome. He didn’t just read it, it was like a one man play. Well worth the time to listen to this!
