About the Book

REVIEWS

The book was amazing, his stories are interesting because they cover real-life situations that people can relate to - Ava

At the end of the book, I felt like I wanted to meet him for a cup of coffee or beer and kick it with him and share a story or two. It is that raw honesty and lack of pretentiousness that I appreciate - J. C. Sandoval

I loved the rawness of the author's words. What a great read about an inner-city person life - Solar

He's from one of the most dangerous cities in America. Move over Mr. Rogers. It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood. Would you be mine? Could you be mine? Troy takes you on an extraordinary ride through his life you will never forget. Won't you be his neighbor?

You don't have to be a celebrity to have a good story. Ordinary people have exciting tales also. And this is one. Straight out of North Philadelphia comes a memoir so entertaining, hilarious, and inspiring. Troy talks about his life growing up and living in the urban city. Everything he has been through and the crazy things he has seen. His memoir is like some good ol' soul food that warms your heart. It's all the good stuff with a large side order of humor, a sprinkle of reality and a dash of love and soul. If you have an appetite for urban humor then this one is for you. Troy have some stories for you. Living in the city can be fun and adventurous. It can be stressful. It can also be a life learning experience to share with others. And he is about to set it off. So, what's the procedure with a good book in your face? You read it and you learn from his experiences. Welcome to Troy's world. This isn't keeping up with the Kardashians. Living in urban America we are just trying to keep up. Living just enough for the city. Fish don't fry in the kitchen and beans don't burn on the grill. We are still trying to get up that hill.

Life is what it is. Every day is not a good day and we don't always have good times. Temporary layoffs my foot. Troy would like to show you what's happening now so your life won't be filled with reruns. Dorothy said there's no place like home. She never lived in a dangerous city. There are no scarecrows around here. Kevin Hart is also from North Philly just like Troy. But we are not all blessed to be funny and can make it out. Some of us are stuck here. Troy wants to move on up like the Jefferson's and just make it. We all have struggles and obstacles in life. Sometimes it's how you deal with them that makes you a true winner. Troy wrote a memoir that many people from the urban world can relate to. It's far a cry from Black-ish with an urban Big Bang Theory. If you're Coming to America and visiting Troy's neighborhood in the Heat Of The Night you'll probably see the Walking Dead. Troy is coming live from the 215 just like it's Saturday Night.

Will Smith is also from Philadelphia. But this isn't another Fresh Prince of Bel-Air tale. This isn't made for television. We don't have Ashley's. We have Felicia's in our neighborhood. And you will never see anyone doing the Carlton dance around here. And you may even see cousin Bey Bey at the family barbeque. Your environment doesn't define who you are. It really does go to show you that it's really not where you're from but where you're at after the smoke has cleared. And Troy is standing in his lane.
