Al B. Sure! – författare

Grammy-nominated R&B legend Al B. Sure! tells all in this inspiring survivor’s memoir that reveals the untold story of his near-death health emergency, shocking ties to Sean Combs, romance with the late Kim Porter, and the extraordinary highs and life-threatening lows of being a pioneering New Jack Swing superstar.Days after Homeland Security agents raided Sean Combs’s compounds in a federal sex-trafficking investigation, the multiplatinum R&B legend Al B. Sure! claimed that when people heard how he had wound up in a coma two years earlier, they were “really going to need to call Homeland Security.” Al B.’s remarks set off a media firestorm as he speculated about possible ties between his life-threatening medical crisis and Sean Combs. The connections run deep—Al B. Sure!’s ex-wife, Kim Porter, became Combs’s longtime girlfriend and the mother to three of his children before her unexpected death in 2018. An open letter by Quincy Brown, the son of Al B. and Kim, praising Combs as a father figure sparked a media frenzy, as did Al B.’s calls for an investigation into Porter’s death from pneumonia.For years, Al B. Sure! had been ringing the alarm about alleged gang stalking, surveillance, death threats, human trafficking, and psychological warfare against him and others in his orbit. People called him crazy. Now, back from the brink of death, he reclaims his power and his truth in this inspiring survivor’s memoir about one man’s journey to find inner peace despite what he claims were countless attempts to break him.This remarkable story transcends Al B.’s health crisis. It chronicles his journey from the tough streets of Money Earnin’ Mount Vernon to new jack swing stardom, as well as his influential role at Uptown Records—where Combs got his start in the industry as an intern. But of the small group of key figures who were there at Uptown’s founding, Al B. is one of the few still living to tell the whole story.
