Saw this pop up when checking for a few books:



summary

With his fellow New Yorker RZA, Dennis Coles–aka Ghostface Killah–established the Wu-Tang Clan, the legendary hip-hop group whose flexible format (originally seven members, growing to ten, it performs in various combinations and also allows its members solo careers), danceable singles and intimate melodic lyrics have kept it at the pinnacle of rap and hip-hop from its founding in the early 1990s to today.

Rise of a Killah, Ghost’s autobiography, is intense rather than comprehensive, looking back at his childhood in Staten Island, his commitment to his family (including a brother with muscular dystrophy) and lifelong sidekicks, how crime and violence have affected his life, his fellow Wu-Tang members, a formative touring trip to Japan in 1997, and his art.

Rich with both story and imagery, Rise Of A Killah is both visual record and a real-feel narrative of a performer’s life.

I already copped Rae's book back in 2022.. it was a good read although he was angry at RZA and Divine throughout the second half of the book.

I also brought the Boosie book as well, I'm definitely copping the Ghostface book now.

Hopefully, Ghost can clear up the rumor that he pushed 50 down the stairs.
