I am so in love with Scarface. He is by far one of the top five rappers in hip hop history and is a legend in the game. He's been thorough a lot over his 20+ year career and has signed with It Books Publications to publish the book. The release is set for fall of 2014 along with a new album. Here's what Mark Chait, the editor who acquired the book, had to say:
More than just an autobiography, it’s an eloquent take on the whole story of rap, but from a Southern perspective. Scarface was a 70s baby growing up in Houston when two new things swept into town – hip-hop and crack – that would change him and kids like him forever. He was there from the beginning and there would certainly be no T.I.,Lil Wayne, Ludacris, Master P, etc., if it wasn’t for him. And Benjamin, formerly of Vibe and Billboard, knows more about Southern rap than any other writer.
I know that I will be checking for the book when it comes out. Will you?
