Roof Books presents the debut poetry collection of an exciting new talent, Sol Cabrini, indie rapper under the moniker Sol Patches in the vein of Mykki Blanco, Kevin Abstract, and SOPHIE, among others. Holding degrees in Performance Studies from NYU and working under the guidance of of Fred Moten, Cabrini's poetics are explorative, innovative, and an aspect of her expansive multimedia artistic practice. Tgirl.jpg is a complex collection following a Black transgender woman's life from teenage to adulthood, from Chicago to NY, with hefty philosophical and existential quandaries. Cabrini's hip-hop background is intertwined through her poetics, with poems transforming into songs and back, aided by QR codes that make the reader a listener and invite them into a tapestry of interactive word and sound. This dynamic assortment of poetry, diaries, letters, and songs takes you from innocence to experience, exploring the relationship between self-discovery, social involvement, and personal development. Cabrini tells a contemporary story of resilience and struggle, reckoning with lineages while forging ahead into an avant-garde realm of Afro-Surrealism and racial intersectionality.
