Bobby Shmurda Admits He Cried Writing His Memoir: 'This Book Is Gonna Be So Good'

Bobby Shmurda is eager to publish his autobiography because he believes that others would be moved by his story because of their own tears.

On Sunday, July 23, the Brooklyn rapper revealed on his Instagram Story that he had shed a tear while penning a chapter for the upcoming book, adding that it is going to be “so fucking good.”

“Yo, I was writing a chapter in my book yesterday and I found myself crying,” he said. “Like I let out a sob. I don’t even weep, anyway. Even I don’t cry like that. Damn, I haven’t written in so long, I thought as I found myself wiping away a tear.

“It was like doing a journal, like a diary type shit,” he continued. When I shed a tear, I said, “This book is going to be so fucking good!”

Early in June, Bobby Shmurda signed a contract for the autobiography and stated that it would be among the best stories ever told.

Bobby announced on Instagram that he was starting a new job with UTa Publishing. “Work work work @utapublishing it is a pleasure off to the races we are,” he wrote. “We’re about to begin on an awesome, lasting trip and story that is inspiring, motivating, honest, and passionate.

This will be my first autobiography, he continued. You guys are an inspiration to all of my fans and supporters who have been with me from the beginning. I can’t wait for you to get your hands on this masterpiece and read it. You’ll be inspired like MF, and it will be one of the greatest stories ever told.

Bobby gained notoriety after releasing his breakthrough song “Hot N-gga” in 2014 and was hailed as one of Brooklyn Drill Music’s original pioneers. He was headed for celebrity before being convicted on one count of third-degree conspiracy and one count of possessing weapons, which put an end to his ascent.

After pleading guilty to conspiracy to possess weapons and possession of a weapon for his membership in the GS9 gang, the rapper accepted a plea agreement in September 2016. Prior to the sentence being handed down, he received two years of credit for the initial seven-year term.

Shmurda accrued 11 infractions while he was incarcerated, including having a prison shiv, having drugs, and fighting. He was ultimately let out of jail in February 2021.

Since his release, Bobby has maintained a low profile while sometimes producing songs, but it’s evident that he’s eager to step things up and share his tale.

The book has not yet had a publishing date determined.
