In "Game Over", Azie brings forth a powerful memoir of New York's perilous drug underworld and music industry, with an intellect and wisdom to empower and challenge the street culture he knows so very well., Game Overchronicles the life of legendary Harlem drug dealer Azie Faison. Faison, a ninth-grade dropout, went from welfare recipient to millionaire through drug peddling. Between 1983-1990 Faison earned more than $100,000 per week selling cocaine - during the peak of Ronald Reagan's campaign for "War on Drugs". Game Overis not just an inner-city gangland tale, Faison provides a pull-no-punches look into the inner workings of drug operations in New York City, the complicity of Hip Hop artists and law enforcement agencies, and the forces that lead many inner-city youth down the path of street hustling. This rags-to-riches story highlights Faison's climb through the drug underworld, the betrayal and violence he experienced, and the remarkable transformation he made from a drug dealer to an anti-drug crusader.

- a***0 (56)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThis seller is a scammer. They listed and advertised this listing as “Fallout 3 - Game of the year edition” which is the sole reason I bought it, because I am looking for the game of the year edition with all of the DLC included on the disc. Well lo and behold, the seller sent me a plain old copy of Fallout 3, which for one I already own, and two is not what was advertised and listed!!!! It says in the item title GAME OF THE YEAR EDITION!!!!
