As a young man growing up in the streets of Indianapolis, Indiana and Atlanta, Georgia Elbert Lee Frazier learned the hustle game early on - hustle to get ahead, hustle to thrive, hustle to survive. Despite a strong-willed mother who worked tirelessly to get him to tap into his potential, and a hard-nosed father determined to beat him onto a straight and narrow path? It would be the streets where Elbert would get his education.

Told in three stages, Rise of a Street Hustler is the second installment of this riveting coming of age autobiography about an Urban African-American boy's journey from boyHOOD 2 maleHOOD. Book 2; Rise of a Street Hustler focuses on the journey from boyHOOD to maleHOOD, which is a critical time where the African-American male psyche is challenged by hormonal and physical changes. This is also a time where many Black boys have a tendency to act out, a time where the boy first thinks he is a man and tries to emulate what he thinks are rituals of Black manHOOD.
