About This Book
This biographical memoir takes an in-depth look into the life of Mutah Beale, formerly known as Napoleon of the legendary Outlawz rap group who were affiliated with the late Tupac Shakur. It examines his life as a black man, starting from birth after the murder of his parents and growing up with almost insurmountable obstacles only to rise to stardom as a member of rap's most recognizable groups. Emerging unscathed by the perils of glitz and glamour, Mutah ultimately finds his inner peace when he accepts Islam. His life is a vivid walking example of the complexity of America, and the book examines timely issues that plague American society such as police brutality, mental health, and gang politics/violence.
