About this ebook

The New York Times bestselling memoir from legendary rapper Gucci Mane spares no detail in this “cautionary tale that ends in triumph” (GQ).

For the first time, Gucci Mane tells his extraordinary life story in his own words. It’s “as wild, unpredictable, and fascinating as the man himself” (Complex).

The platinum-selling trap pioneer began writing this remarkable autobiography while serving time in a federal maximum-security prison. When he was released in 2016, he emerged transformed—sober, focused, and creatively reinvigorated.

A critically acclaimed classic in hip hop literature, The Autobiography of Gucci Mane offers raw insight into the volatile rise, fall, and rise again of one of the most influential artists in modern rap. It’s a compelling story of addiction, fame, incarceration, and redemption that “provides incredible insight into one of the most influential rappers of the last decade...By the end, every reader will have a greater understanding of Gucci Mane, the man and the musician” (Pitchfork).

I enjoyed reading this during my pass time, and even found myself getting hooked in some moments of his book. It was inspiring to hear the story of a man come from a humble beginning and find his way through the highs and lows of an extraordinary life path.

I was never the biggest Gucci fan, but this book really gave me a new found respect for him as a man and a business man. I even started listening to his music after reading the book.

As a fan of Gucci, just going down his timeline and remembering where i was at the same time in my life listening to predominately his music makes this a special read for me.
