Synopsis

Grammy Award-winning hip-hop artist, producer, and actor T.I. proved himself a powerful storyteller as well with the publication of his debut novel Power & Beauty. Now he follows up with his second riveting street-lit epic, Trouble & Triumph. T.I.’s explosive sequel picks up the story of Paul “Power” Clay and Tanya “Beauty” Long, as Power takes over his mentor-turned-arch-enemy’s street empire, looking to turn it legit, while Beauty rises ever-higher in a glamorous world of fashion and celebrity. An authentic voice of the street, in the vein of Sistah Souljah and other successful authors of contemporary African-American commercial fiction, T.I. is a rap music legend who has lived at every strata of society, and whose hard life experience adds truth and fire to Trouble & Triumph.

Wow [URL not allowed] Few Spoilers Here & There... This book Trouble & Triumph was good as the first one. I wish T.I. will hurry up and put out book 3. Also, I'm upset because I want to know if Beauty sister got killed. I'm like why she invited her sister and going to leave her......more

Okay, glad there was a sequel but it got a little long winded in the middle with her going to Japan and then with Slim's breakdown. Had the potential to be a great follow up.......more
