"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."
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.
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 "Scarface," 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.
"Magic City "is an ode to Miami, a riveting tale of a paradise lost
and a native son determined to infuse it with new life.
