Fifteen-year-old Steven is caught between the pull of the streets and the rhythm of hip-hop that won't let him go. His brothers pass letters that carry more weight than they realize.

When family struggles, gang pressures, and faith collide, Steven learns that every choice writes its own story. Some choices build stages. Others build scars. Told with raw honesty and set to the backdrop of '90s Dallas hip-hop, '

""A powerful classroom novel. '95 speaks to students who live between cultures and dreams, reminding them that every choice writes its own story."" - Educator Review, Grand Prairie ISD ""If The Outsiders grew up on '90s hip-hop and Sunday reflections, it would sound like '95. Gritty, soulful, and unforgettable."" - Early Reviewer, YA Street Lit Journal
