Didn't even know there were so many HH books tbh :francis:

Only ones I've read are the Rza books and The Dirty Version...I'm a Wu stan :yeshrug:

Might have to order that Prodigy book :jbhmm:
well you missed these 2

Rza - Wu manual
LL Cool j - I make my own rules
Ice T - Ice a memoir
Jay z - decoded
Dmx - earl

Even if you're not a fan I recommend y'all read them books


Yeah I really Scarface book a few months back. It was ok but he really didn't go into depth into some subject matters but I understand why. It was sad to hear that Jay Prince really wasn't giving him the money that face should have been making .
