<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Magic City" offers a fascinating look at one of the country's most talented rappers and his rise to fame from the troubled ghettos of Miami.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"A thug is someone who stands on his own. He lives by the decisions he makes and accepts the consequences. A thug is comfortable in his own skin. I wear mine like a glove." <p/> Trick Daddy was born a thug--just a stone's throw from downtown Miami, yet a world away from its dazzling beauty and sparkling wealth. Where grinding poverty, deadly crime, and devastating racial tension taught kids to live by the 'hood rules. Remarkably, Trick came from nothing and made it big just when his chances had run out. <p/>Magic City is the extraordinary tale of a boy whose father was a pimp, who learned to hustle to survive, and whose only role model was his brother, the drug dealer he watched plying his trade on the block. It's the untold truth behind the cult movie <i>Scarface</i>, of the drug money that transformed the city into a shining mecca for the rich and famous while turf wars between smalltime pushers claimed countless lives. It's also the incredible story of how that potent mixture of extremes--the electric pulse and glittering abundance of South Beach and the crime, corruption, and despair in its shadows--gave rise to the most dominant sound in hip-hop today. <i>Magic City </i>is an ode to Miami, a riveting tale of a paradise lost and a native son determined to infuse it with new life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Trick is a South Florida product and and has paid his dues to get to where he is... from making music to giving back to the community. We've all had some struggles along the way but Trick has persevered through it all. He has always showed me love and I'm proud to call him my homeboy.<br> - Udonis Haslem, Power Forward for the Miami Heat<br>
