David Light, professionally known as D-Lite, wanted nothing else in life except to rap. His journey takes him from the mean streets of the South Bronx to the bright city lights of HotLanta! Childhood friends, Desean and Shelby are along for the long as faithful sidekicks. However, life at the top of the charts is more than they bargained for. Success transforms David into the image created for him by his label. The lines between art and life blur as envy turns to jealousy and jealousy turns to murder. Written by music business insider, Sa id Salaam, Rapper s D-Lite is wildly entertaining but slyly intertwined with a moral message. In the end, decide for yourself if success is worth the price of fame.
I really enjoyed this book. There was times I couldn't stand D-Lite but then towards the end I really liked the man he became. I loved how the relationships were with his friends and how the book showed how the music industry could be. It isn't all glitz and glamour without the right people behind you. Highly recommend
I extremely enjoyed this book. The story line was great; Sa'id walked you through the life of a rapper... I felt like I was apart of the story: D-Lite's up's and down's, his twist and turns, and even his drama. Great read Sa'id, keep the books coming.
I loved this book. Sa'id really did his thing with this one. While I was reading I remanised about my younger years. If u haven't read it pick it up cause it's a very good read.
I like this author but this is based on rapper who who had dreams to make them come true he had his ups and downs but that's reality it took me a minute to get through it but I've succeeded
