Book Description

Review &#8220Old School Love is the kind of love that makes you wanna wear matching shell-toe sneakers and dance in the living room. Rev Run and Justine personify black love and family. Their commitment to God is the foundation of their union. God is love. Old School Love is ‘like that, and that’s the way it is.’&#8221 (Nia Long)&#8220Bless up; Rev Run and his Queen Justine are a true example of love. The way that Rev upholds his queen and the way Justine supports her king serve as an inspiration for what unconditional love should look like. Rev and Justine share the same values as my queen and I, that God is the foundation of our love.&#8221 (DJ Khaled, Asahd’s father)&#8220With all of the external pressures coming at us, we gotta love, forgive, and love some more. Don’t confuse stupidity with love. Intelligent love is the only way our people can survive. Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Simmons.&#8221 (LL Cool J)&#8220Justine and Rev Run Simmons represent a level of integrity, heart, and spirituality like nothing that’s ever been seen in our generation. Their marriage has created a vibration in my life that was never there before I met them. My wife and I are honored to know Rev and Justine, and to have seen firsthand the magic and integrity that their marriage represents.&#8221 (Tyrese)&#8220The traditional values the authors espouse will appeal to young couples working to remain true to their wedding vows.&#8221 (Publishers Weekly)”I’ve read many celebrity-authored books, and rarely do I feel compelled to recommend a book, but this one I’m going to recommend.” (Ebony) Read more About the Author Joseph “Rev Run” Simmons, the front man of the seminal hip-hop group RUN DMC, has sold tens of millions of records around the world and is widely credited for ushering rap music into mainstream culture.

Customers Review:

Love Rev.Run & Justine. Great book, can’t put it down once I began reading it.
You may know Rev Run from the legendary hip-hop group RUN-DMC. Or you may remember him and his wife Justine from their many television shows including my favorite RUN’s House. This month the iconic couple of hip-hop released a new relationship book titled, Old School Love And Why It Works. Although this is not the first book this couple has written together, it is the first book of theirs that I have ever read.⠀The layout of the book flows perfectly. Each chapter opens with a Biblical scripture followed by a quote from Rev Run. Next, Run and Justine have their own sections in the chapter, where in which they share their individual perspectives about the chapter’s topic. Finally, the chapter ends with highlights titled “Takeaways”.⠀What I enjoyed about this book is…⠀1. It was written by a couple that has stood the test of time and has proven that lasting love is possible if both people are willing to give 100% to the union.⠀2. Rev Run provides two very good examples of how the law of attraction works. And how by writing letters, he was able to attract two very big dreams into his existence.⠀3. The book is small, quick to read, with very short chapters.⠀4. It provides evidence that black love is alive and well.⠀But I must say, as much as I would love to give this book 5⭐️s, it is for the following reasons I cannot.⠀1. Some of the stories in the book were already shown on the tv show Run’s House. Therefore, I found them repetitive.⠀2. Rev Run and Justine didn’t provide any new information about relationships that I haven’t already read in other relationship books. Basically, I didn’t learn anything new.⠀3. Unfortunately, I felt the book lacked substance. I wanted them to go a little deeper while sharing their stories.⠀Overall, I did find the book entertaining. It is a positive book that I would recommend to young adults just beginning their journey into this thing called love.
I read the book “old school love” by Joseph and Justine Simmons. Joseph is Rev Run from Run Dmc. And Justine is his wife. I enjoyed reading their book. They write about their relationship and their marriage and family. The book is written as a guide and recipe for a happy and long lasting marriage. It was easy and pleasant to read. They place their importance on family first, and the love and respect they have for each other. It may sound cliche, but it contained a lot of wisdom I would recommend this book and give it 4 stars
