Описание:
Selected as a Best Book of the Year by Esquire "Couldn't put it down." -Charlamagne Tha God "Mesmerizing." -Raekwon da Chef "Insightful, moving, necessary." -Shea Serrano "Cathartic." -The New Yorker "A classic." -The Washington Post
The explosive, never-before-told story behind the historic rise of the Wu-Tang Clan, as told by one of its founding members, Lamont "U-God" Hawkins.
"It's time to write down not only my legacy, but the story of nine dirt-bomb street thugs who took our everyday life--scrappin' and hustlin'and tryin' to survive in the urban jungle of New York City--and turned that into something bigger than we could possibly imagine, something that took us out of the projects for good, which was the only thing we all wanted in the first place." --Lamont "U-God" Hawkins
The Wu-Tang Clan are considered hip-hop royalty. Remarkably, none of the founding members have told their story--until now. Here, for the first time, the quiet one speaks.
Lamont "U-God" Hawkins was born in Brownsville, New York, in 1970. Raised by a single mother and forced to reckon with the hostile conditions of project life, U-God learned from an early age how to survive. And surviving in New York City in the 1970s and 1980s was no easy task--especially as a young black boy living in some of the city's most ignored and destitute districts. But, along the way, he met and befriended those who would eventually form the Clan's core: RZA, GZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Inspectah Deck, Ghostface Killah, and Masta Killa. Brought up by the streets, and bonding over their love of hip-hop, they sought to pursue the impossible: music as their ticket out of the ghetto.
U-God's unforgettable first-person account of his journey, from the streets of Brooklyn to some of the biggest stages around the world, is not only thoroughly affecting, unfiltered, and explosive but also captures, in vivid detail, the making of one of the greatest acts in American music history.

Описание: The Champion's Torment, Book Two in The Champions Series
After claiming the greatest prize, can their love survive the torment of Vitus? Following the loss to Proximus, Cassian, the Celtic Champion Gladiator of the city of Velletri, feels the burn of challenge and the exhilaration of a man in love. His joy is short-lived when he discovers that the bargain made between his master and that of his lover, Violetta, means that any loss he suffers in contest results in a physical punishment for her. Unable to train due to the injury from the German Proximus, Cassian is brought to the market by his master, Tiberius Tertius. A bargain struck over a jug of wine sees the Champion's greatest dream and worst nightmare come true. Though Violetta chose pain over sharing a bed with Vitus, the cruel and devious son of her master, when faced with punishment for Cassian's loss in a test of gladiatory skills, she still must deal with his obsessive rage. When a simple trip to the market results in her lover being brought to the house of Census, she is faced with the joy of daily life beside the man she loves and the nightmare of her master's son. When the storm clears, will Cassian and Violetta still stand side by side or will Vitus' wrath destroy everything in its path, including love?
Описание: We live in a fallen world full of disappointment, despair, depravity, and shame. Thousands upon thousands of people are dependent upon drugs, alcohol, and dead-end relationships in an effort to fill the void in their lives. Both men and women who fall victim to the stressors of this world find themselves contemplating suicide because they have lost hope in self, the system, and God. When this happens, nothing but chaos fills this void. In 21 Pillars of Power, Dr. Ricks outlines powerful life-changing and life-sustaining principles to live by. It is his belief that by adhering to these practical and consistent principles, the reader opens him or herself up to new possibilities of achieving personal and spiritual fulfillment--the lifeblood of life's journey. The central theme of 21 Pillars of Power is: "God is able to do exceedingly above what we ask or think."
