According to Atria [Books], the book will detail the 38-year-old emcee's rise to fame from the South Side of Chicago, his exploits in the Hip-Hop industry with rappers like Kanye West, and his crossover into the world of acting in movies like Terminator: Salvation, American Gangster and Just Wright with Queen Latifah.
