Authors J. Diggs and E.J. Burney's new book, 'Soul of a Gangsta,' delivers raw and uncut tales of hustles, robberies, prison, and more, straight from the gangster's mouth

J. Diggs, hip-hop artist, documentary producer, and president of the largest independent record label in the country, has completed his new book, "Soul of a Gangsta: The Raw & Uncut Story of J. Diggs & the Romper Room Crew": a gripping tale of two conspiracies. A survivor of eight different federal penitentiaries in ten years, a man who was convicted for conspiracy to commit armed bank robbery, and BET's youngest American Gangsta, Diggs gives readers the raw and uncut tales of hustling in the '80s, vivid accounts of bank robberies, prison stories, and the struggles of returning to his hood, the notorious Crest, located in California's Bay Area.

Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Diggs' shocking story tells of ups and downs, years of fighting to rebuild his life after prison, the loss of his friend and hip-hop icon MacDre, and the ongoing battle to keep his freedom.

Diggs gives readers the chance to hear the stories straight from the source and get to know the artist, the producer, the entrepreneur, the survivor, and the family man. Walk through the streets of crack dealing, murder, armed bank robberies, prison, riots, shoot-outs, and prostitutes—a past that will finally be revealed to the world through this autobiography, which tells the story of two worlds and a young Black man's fight to rebuild his life.

Readers who wish to experience this electrifying work can purchase "Soul of a Gangsta: The Raw & Uncut Story of J. Diggs & the Romper Room Crew" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.
