The Game at Its Best by P Child
This is the story of a young man raised in the depths of Chicago, where dreams of escaping the ghetto feel almost impossible. Surrounded by gangbanging, drug dealing, pimps, and prostitution, the environment leaves little room for good decisions. Your role models are the people you see every day, and when that’s all you know, it’s easy to fall prey to your surroundings.
In a place where kids dream of making it as rappers or actors; dreams as rare as winning the lottery and yet many find themselves chasing the streets instead. Too short for basketball, too small for football, most are left with the harsh reality of drugs, gangs, and fast money. Even those who want to go to school and succeed find it nearly impossible when the streets keep pulling them back.
King P, also known as P. Child, aka Pimpin’ P was no exception. He fell deep into the world of pimping and prostitution, becoming one of Chicago’s biggest pimps, a five-time Player’s Ball Trophy winner. But the fast life comes with a price. His hustle eventually landed him in federal prison, facing a fifty-year sentence.
This book takes you on a raw, emotional ride through the mean streets of Chicago where gangs, drugs, and hardcore pimping define survival. You’ll laugh, you’ll get angry, and you might even shed a tear. But above all, you’ll witness the game at its best.
Make no mistake: there are only three ways out of this life; jail, incurable disease, or death. Very few make it out.
