    The Autobiography of Gucci Mane

    Written by Gucci Mane and Neil Martinez-Belkin

    Narrated by Guy Lockard

    4.5/5

    About this audiobook

    The New York Times bestselling memoir from the legendary Gucci Mane spares no detail in this “cautionary tale that ends in triumph” (GQ).

    For the first time Gucci Mane tells his extraordinary story in his own words. It is “as wild, unpredictable, and fascinating as the man himself” (Complex).

    The platinum-selling recording artist began writing his remarkable autobiography in a federal maximum security prison. Released in 2016, he emerged radically transformed. He was sober, smiling, focused, and positive—a far cry from the Gucci Mane of years past.

    A critically acclaimed classic, The Autobiography of Gucci Mane “provides incredible insight into one of the most influential rappers of the last decade, detailing a volatile and fascinating life...By the end, every reader will have a greater understanding of Gucci Mane, the man and the musician” (Pitchfork).

      I already am a huge day one fan of Gucci Man and this made me an even bigger one (if that’s even possible). Ive always known that he had an inspiring story and this book demonstrates that will, faith and determination can make anything happen. Kudos to you Gucci!

      I was not expecting this book to be so good. I'm probably biased because I'm from the South, but I just thought this book was going to be some grimy life story. It was that, but it was much more. It was actually inspiring. It's real, and the narration was good to. Thanks

      excellent narration with really good details in the story! I was surprised when it ended.. I almost thought that we were going to hear a little bit more about when Gucci got out of jail for the last time. Other than that the solid listen because of how Gucci really wrote about his experiences and you were able to get into how he was thinking During certain periods of his life.

    • 4/5
      Let me start by saying I'm not a fan of Gucci Mane. I've heard of him that's about it. I enjoyed his book more than I thought I would. He had a hard life and a horrible addiction. I'm glad he was able to get himself together, reach his dreams, and conquer his goals.

      I'd recommend this book, because he details his life problems, addiction, career and love.

    • 5/5
      This book was incredible. I’ve always been a huge Gucci fan and was aware of a lot of the things talked about in this book. But to get the intimate details and how he felt in his mind at the time is priceless. I feel like this book will change my life as much as his time in federal prison changed his. Thank you guwop
