The average rating for Hip Logic based on 2 reviews is 3 stars.

Review # 1 was written on 2013-10-05 00:00:00 Barbara Buscemi Quality poetry expands the world, in just a few words. Hip Logic is not of that caliber. While the blurb about it tackling "African American/male identity" is true, the poetry isn't. Hip Logic tries hard to be hip, and the supposed logic it amends just leads to worn-out conclusions. Even the journey from premise to poetic leap is just blah, with excruciating similes ("dull as a mouthwash") and an utter lack of music.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-04-14 00:00:00 Matthew Laramore masculine The word some dudes claim came first. Delved from the plus & minus system God used to slice open Himself. Or the smile of old deacons in the Amen corner during the part of the Easter Musical where Mary Magdalene has to clean the feet of Jesus to beat a stint in Hell. And the malice in the Angel of Mercy. And the mean streak in your father's work belt. The gram of vein & muscle that tipped Babylon's scale.
