Yo..the part where he says he bought a $80.000 top pedigree pigeon from his rival just to break its neck and cook it, then letting a hooker eat it and shyt it out and then he send the turd with the pigeon head still visible in a zip lock bag to Ozzy Osbourne just so he could ask what his reaction was the next time he saw him on the red carpet..that's from his coke period.. I was when I read that. Dude was wild back then.

I know I've heard a lot of the mike stories through his interviews and documentary over the years, but this book sounds insane with the details. Might have to support the god body.

Made it through Chpt's 1-3 while waiting in the ER....book started out a whole lot better than I thought (waaaaay more entertaining than Questlove's book which is a big ass pat on the back to himself)

Spoiler

Never knew this dude slept in the same bed with his moms until he was 15 and sometimes she'd be getting her back blown out

- never knew about the CO ex boxer...I did miss the first few min of his stage show and don't remember him bringing it up...I do remember him talking about Duran being his fave fight of all time and the phone convo he had w/ Ali
