Description

Gucci Mane, one of hip-hop’s most iconic figures and a trailblazer in Atlanta’s rap culture, reveals his struggles with mental health and drug addiction that will provide fans and readers with insights into his career and life. As one of hip-hop’s legendary figures and an indispensable fixture in Atlanta’s vibrant rap culture, Gucci was on an upswing in his career when he sold his debut memoir, The Autobiography of Gucci Mane in 2016. He had just been released from prison, sporting a slimmer physique and health-conscious diet; he announced his ninth album, the platinum-selling Everybody Looking; and became the face of a global campaign with the luxury Italian designer that inspired his name and persona. But underneath all that, he was hiding some of his darkest struggles from the world. Now he is ready to tell his full story. In Episodes, Gucci revisits his life and shares what was really going on for the first time. The mental anguish, the pitfalls, the triggers no one speaks about. Each episode is Gucci experiencing something—something you may remember from the news or even heard in his music—and giving you the background of where he was mentally. He reveals how his fascination with money got the worst of him, why he committed certain crimes, the story behind his ice cream cone tattoo, and how his wife felt watching him overdose. Along the way, he interviews medical professionals and mental health experts to provide insight into mental health awareness. Episodes is Gucci’s way of reaching beyond the “each one, teach one” approach of discussing mental illness behind closed doors, opting instead to cultivate a discourse amongst a culture that, while steadily improving how it regards mental health, still stigmatizes public discussions around the topic. This compelling memoir sheds light on both his inner struggles and his triumphs, offering an unflinching account of a man who defied the odds to leave a lasting legacy on music, culture, and conversations around mental health.

  • Loved it
Format: Hardcover
This was by far one of the best books I have read. I couldn't put it down. Gucci's life story took me on a whole roller coaster ride. Some parts made me very sad, some moments I was scared (LIGHTS OUT)(LIGHTS ON) but the best part was knowing he over came it ALL. God is GOOD. I love that for him.

  • Vulnerability in Gucci’s Story! Love it!
Format: Hardcover
Loved listening to this book! It was inspiring hearing Gucci’s story. As one of his biggest fans, it was a pleasure getting to know the man behind the music. This book gives real insight into his hardworking, go-getter spirit and how he never gave up, no matter the circumstances. The vulnerability he showed throughout was powerful — it made the story feel raw and human. Strong man! Keep going, Gucci! ... show more

  • Gucci is the goat
Format: Hardcover
What an amazing read by a rapper that I have always held in a high regard. I think it’s important for people to narrate their own audiobooks so that it provides a true authentic experience for the listener. Even though he doesn’t know me, I’m proud of the self-awareness that he’s gained and the way he’s been able to change his life around and being an inspiration for others. Truly 10 out of 10 Read! ... show more
