Diary of a Madman by Brad "Scarface" Jordan & Benjamin Meadows Ingram Book Summary

One of Rolling Stone’s Best Music Books of 2015

From Geto Boys legend and renowned storyteller Scarface, comes a passionate memoir about how hip-hop changed the life of a kid from the south side of Houston, and how he rose to the top-and ushered in a new generation of rap dominance. 
Scarface is the celebrated rapper whose hits include "On My Block," "Mind Playing Tricks on Me" and "Damn It Feels Good to be a Gangsta" (made famous in the cult film Office Space). The former president of Def Jam South, he's collaborated with everyone from Kanye West, Ice Cube and Nas, and had many solo hits such as "Guess Who's Back" feat. Jay-Z and "Smile" feat. Tupac. But before that, he was a kid from Houston in love with rock-and-roll, listening to AC/DC and KISS.


In Diary of a Madman, Scarface shares how his world changed when he heard Run DMC for the first time; how he dropped out of school in the ninth grade and started selling crack; and how he began rapping as the new form of music made its way out of New York and across the country. It is the account of his rise to the heights of the rap world, as well as his battles with his own demons and depression. Passionately exploring and explaining the roots and influences of rap culture, Diary of a Madman is the story of hip-hop-the music, the business, the streets, and life on the south side Houston, Texas.

Must Read. Just as face delivers realness in his music he equally did so in this book. I could not put the book down. The book is so transparent it's as if you're having a face-to-face conversation with him. His ability to touch a life through his art either lyrically or written is simply powerful. They don't come no "realer" than face. Grateful he was interviewed on XM radio and mentioned this book. Thank you face for having the courage to be the voice for the black man and woman. We're such a marginalized group that even when we're screaming we're still unheard.

Loved this book. Scarface has always been my favorite artist. I have all his albums as well as all of the Geto albums. This book gives readers an unbiased look into the life of Scarface. As a true fan, I found this to be a page turner. Excellent work Mr. Jordan. I enjoyed every page.

A Legend's Story. As a huge Scarface fan, I really appreciated reading about all the emotions that went into constructing his legendary catalogue. More importantly however, this biography shed some light into the life of Brad Jordan, the man, and showed us the trials and tribulations that led to him creating the timeless music so many of us revere across the world. Insightful stuff.

True page turner.. We're all human which is what's illustrated in this book. A true fan of his music and now as an author....jack of many trades! SRG

Great Read!!. Dat boi face brought the real! Good bio from the OG. I was raised a lot alike the legend. Salute to the Icon Scarface

Day One Fan!. Love Face. Since the early days. Definitely in my top 5. Loved the book. Great insight into the mind of this mad man. -Mony Mone

Legend. Learned a lot from this book, you never really know what a person is going through until there story is told. I grew up listening to Scarface or Face is what we call him in DC. There will never be another Face, his music still is relevant today!! Depending on how I'm feeling, I'll listen to "Sorry For What" or that classic Geto Boys ""Resurrection" #9-10 it's amazing how those two tracks flow right into each other. Salute to Face, and appreciate the knowledge I learned in this book!! Please give us 1 more classic before you put the pen down.....

Powerful and inspiring!. Great book man! I'm just 21 so I'm kinda late to becoming a scarface fan but as an inspiring record producer this book broke the game down to the t! Much love face!

great book. Great insight into one of the greatest that ever did it...
