4.0 out of 5 stars 50 cent's name on the cover is a red herring., 17 Jan 2006

By	B. Carr (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was recommended to me after I read 50's autobiography. If you want to understand how the hip hop industry was born out of the East coast then this book is a must. Dre and NWA discovered it on the west coast but the raw grit and sweat, the painful labour and childbirth of hip hop happened right in Queens, New York.

It also explains how all the gazillionaire names that we know today started out - Dame, Jay Z, Russell Simmons, The Gotti's, Iyor Cohen, DMX, LL Cool J, RUN DMC & of course 50 cent.

Some parts of the book are scary. I could barely put it down. I don't believe this book is strictly for hip hop fans; if you are curious to know how destructive drugs can be or if you are interested in how people survive in deprived ghetto's or more importantly if you want to understand a lot of the issues and beef in hip hop today then this book is very informative.

Lastly, with 50's name on the cover, it could throw a lot of people off and result in more interest. His name is brought up in one chapter and the next chapter is dedicated solely to the rise of 50 cent but if you are a 50 fan already then a lot of it won't be new to you.

All in all, it was a very good read.
