"I have watched every Dumbfoundead battle so many times that I have most of the insults memorized."

"Jonnie 'Dumbfoundead' Park's story is the definition of winning life on hard mode: Start as an undocumented Korean immigrant from Argentina and become a once-in-a-generation battle rapper and artist in Los Angeles."
--Ronny Chieng, Comedian

SPIT is the raw and electrifying memoir of Jonnie Park--better known by his rap moniker, Dumbfoundead--whose rise from an unruly childhood in Los Angeles's iconic Koreatown to international rap stardom is as unlikely as it is exhilarating.

Born in Argentina to Korean parents and smuggled by a coyote across the US-Mexico border at age three, Park grew up in L.A. amid cultural dislocation, his father's violent alcoholism, and the turbulent protests and riots of the early 1990s.

Searching for belonging, he found salvation in the highly competitive underground world of battle rap, where he was among the only successful Asian American battle rappers. He honed his freestyle superpowers at Project Blowed, the legendary South Central L.A. open-mic venue, amid a motley crew of characters who took him in as one of their own.

Told through the lens of his life's greatest battles--his father's rage, racist stereotypes, the "model minority" myth, the pressures of fame, and his own addictions--Park tells his story with his trademark humor, lyrical style, and unflinching honesty.

Like Eminem's 8 Mile, SPIT charts the author's course from high-school dropout to cultural pioneer, one verse at a time. Featuring a dozen vivid graphic novel-style illustrations that bring his journey to life, SPIT visualizes the inner demons and outer adversaries Park faced along the way. From open-mics in South Central to freestyle cyphers in Seoul to music festivals across the globe, Park's memoir is a testament to creativity, grit, and the power of speaking your truth--even when the world isn't ready to hear it.

More than just a chronicle of an artist's path to success, SPIT is a groundbreaking story of identity, resilience, and reinvention. It is also the story of an American outsider who turned life's challenges into his stage and battled his way to triumph.

My favorite sunscreen for being active outside
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion
I bought this last summer and now it's my go-to. I love it. It absorbs quickly, is very easy to just smear on, and has a nice, very light scent. I wear it when I go running and I sweat like a maniac so that tells you something.

Possibly the best sunscreen on the US market
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion
I'm a self-confessed sunscreen snob. I love trying new formulas, and I came to the conclusion years ago that US formulas aren't usually for me. We haven't had a new filter approved by the FDA since the last millennium, and our products reflect that. I can't tell you how many times I spent $40+ on 1.7oz of sunscreen that I ended up hating before I switched to mostly Korean sunscreens; and most of the US sunscreens I like can be described as "good...for a US formula." In short, I didn't have high hopes for this, and I was very pleasantly surprised. This is a very, very good sunscreen even among non-US formulas. It's lightweight, doesn't make my oily skin shiny, and dries down entirely so it doesn't feel tacky or slimy. I can layer over and over throughout the day without pilling or streaks. It also comes in a huge tube for a very low price. The only possible downside is that it's fragranced, which isn't a deal breaker for me. I wish they still sold the 3oz facial version because it's travel-friendly, but from what I can tell, it's the same formula. Try this, especially if you hate thick, heavy, shiny sunscreens. Unless you can't do fragrance, I think you will be very happy with it.

Favorite Sunscreen!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion
We absolutely love this SPF. It’s been our go-to for years. It does not make your skin feel sticky or crunchy. It goes on so smooth (like air!) and absorbs so well. It feels like the softest moisturizer. And it works! We get the two pack every summer. It’s also kinda hard to find. Amazon always comes through! Highly recommend.

Fave sunscreen!!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion
This is my absolute favorite sunscreen. It got my husband to finally start wearing sunscreen at work- it’s the only one he’ll wear. The texture feels so smooth and lightweight on my skin and it covers very well. It also smells delicious.

Inexpensive, effective, non-greasy and invisible
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: Lotion
This is the most economical option for those looking for a very effective but invisible and light sunscreen. I found it very easy to apply and rub into the skin and within a few seconds it had been absorbed into my skin creating a dry and invisible UV ray barrier that I was barely aware of. The two pack was 12 ounces for $15.95—or about $1.30 per ounce—a fraction of the cost of some of the boutique and facial moisturizing sunscreens that will set you back as much as $20.00 per ounce. I use this product often as I rock climb outside here in Las Vegas once a week all through the summer months. The sun is very intense in the Mojave desert, and I have extremely pale white skin that doesn’t tan and burns easily with minimal exposure. This is a chemical—not a mineral based formulation, and it fulfills the required task of preventing my skin from burning.
