In the battle of his life over the ragingly successful music label he had helped found, Ruthless Records, Heller had seen death threats, strong-arming, and beatings. Now the violence had come home when his enemies burglarized his house, jacked his Corvette, and left behind this sneering piece of graffito.Heller didn't get mad; he got even. "Ruthless" tells the explosive story of Jerry Heller's alliance with Eric Wright, aka Eazy-E, one of the legends of rap music and a founding member of N.W.A., "the world's most dangerous band." As a longtime music industry superagent, Heller had the skill and insight necessary to guide N.W.A.'s cometlike rise to the top of the charts. Along the way there were raucous nationwide tours, out-of-control MTV pool parties, and X-rated business meetings. Heller held on through the brutal shocks and reversals of the Ruthless Records era, which saw the label being targeted by the FBI, and its principal artists locked in bitter conflict, until a final turnaround placed Ruthless at the top of the heap once more. Always in the middle of the whirlwind were Jerry and Eazy, an odd-couple pairing that represents one of the deepest and most appealing stories in American music.You don't have to be an N.W.A. fan to love "Ruthless," Heller turns the music industry inside out, exposing its strange logic and larger-than-life personalities. "Ruthless" provides keen insight into the popular music scene, with an unforgettable portrait of its rollicking excesses, life-churning drama, and multimillion-dollar highs.

    David Yong-Gi Cho is the pastor of the world's largest church and a best-selling author. Many of his books talk about life in the Fourth Dimension--a realm that is more real than the physical world in which we live. He points out that the world we know was fashioned in the invisible Fourth Dimension--the spiritual realm--and the things we see are only temporary; whereas, spiritual things are eternal. In light of this, he wants each of us to gain entrance to the Fourth Dimension, the place where the God of might and miracles lives and moves.How do we move from this sphere into the Fourth Dimension? Dr. Cho provides a "road map" for us by showing us the things we need to change in order to get there and live there:We must change the way we think We must live by faith, not by sight We must dream God's dreams We must change the way we speak We must change the way we behave Yes, these are the keys that open the door to the Fourth Dimension for every child of God who wants to know and experience God in all His fullness. As you read this book, you will gain glimpses into the spiritual dimension, a wonderful place of love, peace, and joy, and you will be inspired to go there and stay there. Though you are in the world, you do not have to be of the world."By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible" (Hebrews 11:3 NKJV).
