    Default Houston Rapper SLIM THUG releases fastlane-like ebook

    “We always at the bottom as black people. And it’s because of ‘what’s cool.’ Making it rain? That’s stupid. We always got something stupid moneywise that people think is cool. Pop a hundred bottles? For what? How many bottles it take to get drunk? I know where I came from and I know I can go back. But I ain’t going back.”

    Its fastlane because he choose a need, Black need to be taught personal finance. A lot of us know nothing about it. He also choose a niche, the african american market.


    The biggest issue is, will black people ACTUALLY buy the book?

    Why wouldnt they?
    50 Cents book w/ Robert Greene did well.

    The truth of the matter is that there is already a good amount of financial info in the rap world...the thing is that people tend to gloss over what some rappers are saying because of the package it comes in (the way they talk/look).

    I had no idea 50 had a book. I know Jay had one, but I didn't know 50 did.
