ATL $lim: The Last Trap Star - Paperback

by Darrell a. King (Author)

Demetrius Morgan walked out of Baldwin State Prison with nothing but a duffel bag and three lost years - and walked back into Atlanta with a plan. What started in the trap houses of Bankhead would end in penthouse suites and platinum plaques, but the game never stopped keeping score. As ATL $lim, he became Southern hip-hop's most dangerous headline - a lean-sipping, mumble-rap megastar whose music was only the surface of what he really moved. Behind the chains and the sold-out shows: a label built on blood money, a war with the Lake family closing in from every side, and two women who loved him enough to become his undoing. A federal grand jury is closing in. A camera he never knew was there caught everything. And somewhere in the city, a phone is already uploading the video. This is the rise, the empire, and the fall of a trap star who thought he'd beaten the game - right up until the moment the game beat him back.
