NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A gripping journey."People The highly anticipated memoir from hiphop icon Rick Ross chronicles his coming of age amid Miamis crack epidemic, his starstudded controversies and his unstoppable rise to fame. Rick Ross is an indomitable presence in the music industry, but few people know his full story. Now, for the first time, Ross offers a vivid, dramatic and unexpectedly candid account of his early childhood, his tumultuous adolescence and his dramatic ascendancy in the world of hiphop. Born William Leonard Roberts II, Ross grew up "across the bridge," in a Miami at odds with the glitzy nightclubs and yachts of South Beach. In the aftermath of the 1980 race riots, he came of age at the height of the citys crack epidemic. All the while he honed his musical talent, overcoming setback after setback until a song called "Hustlin" changed his life forever. From his first major label deal to the controversies, health scares, arrests and feuds he had to transcend along the way, Hurricanes is a revealing portrait of one of the biggest stars in the rap game and an intimate look at the birth of an artist. | Rick Ross Hurricanes: A Memoir (First Time Trade) Paperback Book
