In recent years we have seen numerous rappers become writers. U-God, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Fat Joe or Questlove They have been just some of those who have not only written works, but have done so in a very dignified manner.
AND Russ has gone further than most of them, and that is that his book «It Was You All Along» has become a New York Times Best-Seller a recognition that not only refers to the sales of the book, but also to its literary quality.
The New York Times recognizes the sales and quality of Russ’s second book
The work saw the light at the beginning of the month and debuted in the number 7 from the prestigious list. These were the words of the rapper on social media when he discovered it:
Officially a New York Times bestselling author! Thanks to the Harper Collins team and thanks to my fans, you are the best!
The book is the second in Russ’s career and is described as a kind of book of self help for “those who look for answers in the wrong places, a book about self-empowerment, self-learning and, especially, about loving yourself.”
Although Russ has been explicitly happy about the success of the book, the truth is that on different occasions he has shown his discontent with the supposed handling of the numbers in the reproductions of their music on the different streaming platforms.
Be that as it may, our most sincere Congratulations for achieving a milestone in something as complicated as writing a book.
