Russel Simmons former owner of Def Jam, plus founder of Phat Farm and Baby Phat has released his second book. (What was the first?) Do You! 12 Laws to Access the Power in You to Achieve Happiness and Success, is co-authored by Chris Morrow, and has a introduction by real-estate junkie Donald Trump. I first heard about the book being released when Russell Simmons was on the Oprah’s TV show. According to Oprah and Russell she convinced him to change the title to “Do You” with one phone call she thought it was a better fit for the content…I guess when Oprah talks people listen 
. We haven’t had a Monday book or movie review in a while. I personally haven’t read the book, but it has been receiving great reviews and if Oprah gives it a thumbs up it can’t be too bad right? I was reading through some of the reviews on Amazon and 99% gave the book great reviews and says how it is good for anyone wanting advice on succeeding in business and being yourself…not just a book for hip hop guys as one customer put it. The book is available for purchase on Amazon
If anyone has already read it I would love to hear your personal review.

I read the life and def and I watched 24 in the life of Russell…He is a great inspiration in my life..He’s is a real ass hole and I love it!!
P.S “Do you” is the book on my do do list.But to me it seems like it’s going to be similar to this book by Kevin liles “Make it happen”

I have nothing but the UTMOST respect for Russell Simmons. I’ve not read this book either, but I definitely intend to in the not too distant future.
