This is a true story about how I grew up in The Sound Of Philadelphia. My T.S.O.P. music /entertainment-industry. My story is about a 19 year old who was without a job or a salary. One day I walked into Philadelphia International Records recording company, and a lifelong career was born. I became a multi-faceted utilized talent but was denied proper credit for my work for years. I am still a music recording producer but I am now much more. Within this book you will read about my experiences of deception, forgeries of contracts, and it happened to me because of greed that occurs in a company's middle management and often throughout the entertainment industry today. They were difficult lessons that I have painfully learned and I have endured despite these occurrences for many years. I hope that my accounts of my experiences contained within this book will help the youth and aspiring artists from around the world so that they may avoid some of the bad type of people that I have had to work with and the pitfalls that are always present when you grow-up as a teenage into an adult in the entertainment industry.
