What's up ya'll? Just lettin' you know, I just finished writing my book. Right now it's tentatively called "The Struggle, The Grind, The Hustle". I'm going over it now, making editing changes. It's an autobigraphy mostly about my life before you guys knew me as a rapper, even though I was rappin' when I was going through this shit. Only the very end of the book mentions my albums, and Ghetto World Records. It's 90% about my life journey, and 10% Dago street history. I felt my songs only touched the surface of what I've been through. This is an in depth look into some real shit, that really happened. My only concern was incriminating myself on shit I did, because I would never incriminate anyone else, or say anything specific about unsolved crimes. I avoided doin' that, so it's going to be a good read.

I don't know when it's coming out. I figure I'd hit up some of the publishers that published that girl out of Philly's book "True to the game", or the one's who published Monster Kody, or Bishop Don Juan's book. A publisher that deals with street stories. If that don't work, I'll print it up myelf and sell em'. If ya'll have any info that could help me, let me know.

I also wrote a movie screenplay called "Homies Fo' Life". I've had this for a while though. Don't know if it'll ever come out, but my book will.

"In The Ghetto World" dvd coming soon.....

@Paso, fo' sho'. I'ma keep it G homey.

@Wallnutz, I know homey. That's why I'm going to hit up the publishers that have released books like Montser Kody's, Bishop Don Juan's, Teri Woods "True to the game", Shower Posse etc. And Bishop Don Juan's was first published in '94 I think. Before he got hella famous with Snoop.

Teri Woods couldn't find a publisher for her book, so she put out herself, and it was so successful, she started her own publishing company, and she's puttin' all other young blac authors.

I'ma try my best to get it out. My screenplay is real professional, and some people have looked at it in the industry, and were impressed. I just got to run across the right person, and pitch it to them.

Much love Deuce. You always spit the real. I feel the book is going to really help me. That and the dvd. The book is going to be about 176 pages. I'm leaning towards paperbac. I haven't decided if I'm going to put pictures in it yet, but it would have to be a hard copy to put color pictures in it. In my opinion if Monster Kody was a good rapper, and had a little recognition as a tight rapper, and then put his book out, and after the success and notoriety he received after his book, he would've got signed. Cuz niggas would've knew he was real, and his story in lyrics would've been interesting, and he had the respect from niggas everywhere because of what he's been through. One thing about me though, I'm not going to mention any niggas names in unsolved crimes. It will be real general, and niggas will have to read between the lines, and find out the real on their own. Feel me? Just my 4 cents. 1

@D-Mak, M-1 and Big Raid Loak, good lookin'. The book is hella interesting. 100% true autobiography, and I don't think I incriminated myself.

@StreetSoldier, fo' sho' homey. We can do it big at Cali Connection. Teri Woods is one of the persons I'm going to send it to, but right now Triple Crown Publishing who the homey on the board Bammer told me about looks like the specifically deal with my kind of books. It's a couple more too. I just hope it comes out.

@mrrocnron, homey you know me and you go way bac. You know how we do it my nig. I even mentioned your name briefly when I was telling the MCC stories.

U MIGHT BE ABLE TO WORK SOMETHING OUT WITH THEM. I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING THEY PUT OUT BUT I HEARD A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY THAT THE C WALK DVD THEY DID WAS TIGHT SO THEY PROBABLY ARE A GOOD COMPANY TO WORK WITH. HOPE THIS HELPS U IN ANY WAY. HOW'S THE PUBLISHING DEALS COMING OUT? GOOD LUCK ON ALL YOUR PROJECTS U PUT OUT. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE DVD. PEACE!!!!!!

look into self-publishing,
dogg. it's a bitch but it might well
be worth it. im working on some
publishing ventures of my own &
i've heard you can get some
printing done dirt-cheap in asia
& even italy. might be worth
looking into.

@SouthSanDiego, good lookin' homey. I'm almost finished editing it, so I should know somethin' soon.

@Southeast619ray, yeah it's going to be a little like Monster's, but I'm not goin' to speak on, or say names about UNSOLVED crimes. It's some real shit. Shit that really happened. I'm takin' niggaz on a journey where they can feel like they were with me when I was chained to the bed for 6 hours in the hole in Louisiana after the riot on the yard, and riot in the hole, and still had 6 yrs left to do. But you'll feel it because I explain all the things in my life that even got me to that point. The ballin', the bangin' etc. It's about my life, but it's a lot of Dago street history in there too. Good lookin' on the support homey.

@loki, good lookin' homey. I'm going definitely look into it, and good luc on your publishing ventures.

1, ya'll.
