BADASS - Prodigy. Rebel. Black. An Unapologetic Autobiography.
BADASS (Eng)
I slept on the street—and later lived in a villa. I sold my body for money—and went on to build my own wealth. I tried to kill my father twice—both times before I turned ten. I was arrested five times before sixteen, and still ranked at the top of my class. I attacked a man with a baseball bat for beating his girlfriend. I washed myself in fast-food bathrooms—and not long after, stood on a Broadway stage.
And if I had to live it all again, I wouldn’t change a single thing.
This is the first twenty years of a life you couldn’t make up—shaped by rage and tenderness, violence and brilliance, music, art, and an unbreakable will to survive. The story of a boy who understood early that his talents were not meant to be hidden—but used. Without shame. Without retreat. Without compromise.
BADASS is not your typical autobiography—it hits like a punch. Raw, unapologetic, and impossible to ignore. Percival doesn’t tell this story to please you. He tells it because his truth refuses to stay quiet.
A book that resets the standard for modern memoirs—bold, brutal, and unforgettable.
