"I believe that artists can become the visionaries of culture and community. They help us interpret our world through their own unique lens of creativity and imagination," said Justin. "Artists write the poems, carve the statues, paint the pictures and sing the songs that define us and can reflect the essential heart of humanity."

Justin St. Vincent interviewed a diverse range of leading artists, including Megadeth bass guitarist, David Ellefson, world renowned DJ, Moby and U.K. chart topping band, Rudimental. Exploring the transforming power of the creative spirit and the powerful intersections that exist between creativity and the concepts of love and forgiveness, LOVE LIVE FORGIVE: Insights from Artists delves into these artists personal life experiences, opening the reader to each individual's life concepts and how their personal creativity has influenced, directed, and transformed their lives and the lives of those around them.

In a clever way, Justin St. Vincent asked each contributing artist three simple questions: How can art/music transform our capacity to love and forgive? What positive values does art/music communicate to the world? How has your own creative life impacted or transformed your values? From the responses, each interview is grouped into five chapters: Artistry, Love and Forgiveness, Compassion and Healing, Transformation and Unity. Justin's primary goal for his latest book is to create something that inspires and offers true insight into the relationship between artistry and creativity, seeking to ground its readers in the values, practices and beliefs of creativity, love, forgiveness, spirituality and much more.
