This Bright Future

A Memoir

By: Bobby Hall

Narrated by: Bobby Hall

Length: 10 hrs and 11 mins

Publisher's summary

The instant New York Times best seller and “inspiring and vulnerable” (Trevor Noah) memoir from Bobby Hall, the multiplatinum recording artist known as Logic and the number-one best-selling author of Supermarket.

This Bright Future is a raw and unfiltered journey into the life and mind of Bobby Hall, who emerged from the wreckage of a horrifically abusive childhood to become an era-defining artist of our tumultuous age.

A self-described orphan with parents, Bobby Hall began life as Sir Robert Bryson Hall II, the only child of an alcoholic, mentally ill mother on welfare and an absent, crack-addicted father. After enduring 17 years of abuse and neglect, Bobby ran away from home and - with nothing more than a discarded laptop and a ninth-grade education - he found his voice in the world of hip-hop and a new home in a place he never expected: the untamed and uncharted wilderness of the social media age.

In the message boards and livestreams of this brave new world, Bobby became Logic, transforming a childhood of violence, anger, and trauma into music that spread a resilient message of peace, love, and positivity. His songs would touch the lives of millions, taking him to dizzying heights of success, where the wounds of his childhood and the perils of Internet fame would nearly be his undoing.

A landmark achievement in an already remarkable career, This Bright Future “is just like the author - fearless, funny, and full of heart” (Ernest Cline, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Ready Player One) and looks back on Bobby’s extraordinary life with lacerating humor and fearless honesty. Heart-wrenching yet ultimately uplifting, this book completes the incredible true story and transformation of a human being who, against all odds, refused to be broken.

A MUST BUY!!!

I pre-ordered this audible two weeks ago, when I heard the (My First Tour) clip on YouTube and have been counting down the days to listen. Listen to the man himself tell his story. I'm not talking about Logic neither I'm talking about Sir Robert Hall the II. And that he does in full transparency and for that I thank you a thousand times over. You continue to motivate and inspire millions around the world so FUCK the hate, keep doing you!!!!!

Great book gives major inspiration

Listening to this book made me feel like I was their made me feel so much respect for Bobby for him to speak this deep about his life I thank him

Beautiful story.

So many tears and laughs were shared through this audible journey. Despite the depressing lows and mind blowing highs, all in all this was a great journey that most people wouldn't have endured. I feel incredibly honored and thankful to have spent the time listening to Bobby's story in his own words. I knew reading it wouldn't have had the impact the audio book has. Thank you for this. Thank you for you. Most of all, thank you for persevering, Bobby. You are a beautiful pure soul and I love you. I hope I can see you again someday.

Amazing and touching story

One of the best things Logic has ever created. Thank you for opening up about your story. I know this definitely could not have been easy but it was an amazing, inspirational and truly touching story. I laughed, I reflected, I cried, and I smiled. Thank you for this. I will be coming back to it often for comfort and motivation.

So glad you are here.

Great information thank you for your work.
Can't wait to hear what is next, please.

Couldn't be done better

It's all connected. This collection of stories explain exactly who bobby is and I'm glad I was able to listen. I've been a fan of logic since Everybody. I witnessed the peak of his career and the unfortunate fall. If you would even call it a fall. This book fills in the gaps.. it answered all the questions I had. If you don't like this guy's music, this book will at least make you respect him as a man; as a human being.

This book is eye opening, life changing

Hearing Logic recount his life, struggles, come-ups, pitfalls and achievements, touch on mental health, and even explain how he's still the same person, just like you and me, but better has been eye opening and life changing. I see my own struggles not as a setback but as a motivator. As he goes back to tell about the abuse from his parents during his childhood, reminds me that when I'm feeling like I'm not good enough or doing enough as a parent that I'm doing great and my child is blessed; I'm blessed. To Logic, with the chance you'll ever see this, thank you for making this book, and being better than the person you could have been. Since discovering you in 2016, you have changed my life, and at times even saved it. I am ecstatic that after everything, you're happy, healthy, and alive. I wish you the best in all your endeavors.

A Must Read

This book is incredible so raw and honest. Although I am a huge fan of Logic and have been for almost a decade now I think everyone should read this book the ups and downs of his life show that persistence passion and the power of a dream can take you through anything. Thank you Bobby for writing this. I also have bought the physical autographed version to display in my room so that whenever I wake up I can look at it and think of this bright future and what’s to come for me.This book has brought hope to my life.

Better than I could’ve imagined!

I’ve been one of the biggest logic fans from the jump (mixtape days), have watched every J.A.D. Vid on the come up, you have always inspired me to take leaps in my life man and for that I’m grateful. Being a fan for the longest, life happens to us as well and I feel blessed your music has always been there, now with a book! This book showed me just how genuine Bobby (Logic) is and has been. What a truly incredible story, thought I knew the “gist” but you did an awesome job painting the picture for us listeners/readers. Stay blessed man, Ratt Pack!👊
