🎉 HAPPY 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY to Black Gold!
Venice Neshe. Today we celebrate the powerful debut poetry collection from V. Neshé — a book that continues to resonate, empower, and rise.
Earlier this year, Black Gold became a 2X Amazon Top 100 Bestseller, reaching #100 and #77—an incredible achievement for a first-time author and a testament to the impact of her voice. ✨
This year also marks another major milestone: Black Gold officially expanded from the written word to the world of audio.
A standout line from the collection is featured in Jerrell Grimes’ new song “Shut It Down 2” on the Café Soul EP — available on all platforms. The track includes V. Neshé’s real voice delivering her unforgettable line:
“Who the f* do you think you are?”
This marks her first official recorded feature and the beginning of a new era as her words transition from page to performance.
Today, we honor the book.
We honor the breakthrough.
We honor the artist.
Congratulations, V. Neshé — Black Gold continues to shine brighter every year. ✨
