Cash Money Content' Essence best-selling street lit author K'WAN will be in da' house joining Joey Pinkney for this powerful episode!

In 2002 K’wan hit the scene with his debut novel Gangsta, under Triple Crown Publications. It was the first novel released by the budding house and would eventually become the building block for what is now a multi-million dollar company. What started as a therapeutic release went on to become a part of urban-lit history and an Essence bestseller, as well as drawing rave reviews overseas. After penning his second novel, Road Dawgz (2003), K’wan drew the attention of St. Martin’s Press. 

The literary powerhouse quickly signed K’wan to a multi-book deal, the first of which being Street Dreams (2004).
