DESCRIPTION:
INCREDIBLE! Brandon I am a huge fan of autobiographies, and an even bigger fan of Hip-Hop and Prodigy/Mobb Deep. This book was so well-written, I wish he was still around to write many more. Reading this autobiography, is like reading or watching a prequel to your favorite movie. It gives you such a deeper understanding of his music/lyrics, and also the man that he was. When you listen to Mobb or Prodigy songs, you truly see that he lived what he spoke. As if I could not have been a bigger fanth. Gerard H. said Good Read. When I saw that Prodigy had written an autobiography, I was skeptical at first about its contents. But after deciding to buy it for the kindle and give it a go, I have to say, it turned out to be a really good read. I knew going into this one that there'd be stories about tragedy, success, love and happiness. I can honestly say, I found all of those and much more in the book. It may not be for everyone, but if you're a fan of hip-hop and grew up in the same parts as he did, t. Interesting Read A sometimes obviously honest, sometimes hard to believe read. Being a Mobb Deep fan, I was interested in P's story - especially during the Infamous, He'll on Earth, and Murda Muzik album days. The book is an all-telling, oftentimes funny, street narrative that should entertain most hip hop heads.
For the first time, he gives an intimate look at his family background, his battles with drugs, his life of crime, his relentless suffering with sickle-cell anemia, and more. A truly candid memoir, part fearless confessional and part ode to the concrete jungles of New York City, My Infamous Life is written by a man who was on the front line of the last great moment in hip-hop history and who is still fighting to achieve his very own American Dream. My Infamous Life is an unblinking account of Prodigy's wild times with Mobb Deep, who, alongside rappers like Nas, the Notorious B.I.G., Tupac, Jay-Z, and the Wu-Tang Clan, changed the musical landscape with their vivid portrayals of early '90s street life. Raised in the mayhem of the Queensbridge projects, Prodigy rose to dizzying heights of fame and eventually fell into the darkness of a prison cell. Includes five never-before-released singles, exclusive to the audiobook!. Taking listeners behind
