Russell Simmons, a most prominent hip-hop entrepreneur from its golden age, draws on experiences and life lessons from his successful career to counsel readers on how to achieve personal and professional happiness and empowerment. Here, is a positive pro-active guide that features such wisdom as "Never change for the mainstream" and "There aren't any failures in life, just quitters." Since rising out of the New York City streets in the early eighties, Simmons was instrumental in creating groundbreaking ventures of Def Jam Records, Phat Farm, and Def Comedy Jam. Russell might have helped introduce hip-hop to the world, but he credits his success to his belief in a strong set of principles - or laws. In twelve straight forward steps, Russell reveals a path that can be followed by all struggling to realize their dreams. Russell's laws stem from the belief that it's impossible to receive any sort of lasting success from the world without giving something of lasting value to the world first. Blending business insight, universal spiritual truths, and an inspired sense of purpose, Do You! crosses the lines of age, race, and background, with wisdom that will lift you up and motivate you to pursue your vision. Printed in the United Statess of America. 312 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.
