“Congrats to Rich for sharing such a personal and profound book. ‘Lucky Me’ is the story of us all and shows the obstacles we had to overcome. It dispels the myth that being an artist or star athlete defines genius in the hood. Our potential extends far beyond those stereotypes. ‘Lucky Me’ should inspire all, no matter the circumstances, to create something special for this world.” - Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter
