DC rap artist Let The Dirt Say Amen shares his new album "God Hates Gucci" , a non fiction ultra graphic novel. It is an album designed to work as a mirror.  A mirror for the rap industry in real time. Hip Hop has been in a downward spiral for the last decade and no one seems to give a fuck...but Let The Dirt Say Amen does! So this is about bars, lyrics, beats and a return to the 5 elements. Rap music has become one big fashion show, full of violence, money, sex and ultimately a glorification of the very things that help destroy our communities.  The title is not a direct attack on the Gucci brand nor Gucci Mane or anything or anyone. It is a way of saying God don't like ugly. "God Hates Gucci" . God Hates Gucci by Let The Dirt Say Amen
