The character in the book is a poet named Monte who runs a spoken word night. The direct reference, in the novel, to Monte and his former night in Winston-Salem, NC, was pulled by the author -- Kwame Teague, a good friend of Monte Smith.

He lists Monte as one of his close friends and says he is the hottest Street Poet out right now.

Monte is currently about to release a limited run of a full length album called the Wargasm LP. The album is a fusion of street poetry and audio design featuring production by DJ Soundmachine and Englands DJ Vadim. The LP is slated to be release in limited numbers in mid to late May 2005.
