內容簡介
內容簡介 Can a broken boy become rock royalty? Some lives are shaped by privilege. Others are forged in fire. Once A King, Now A Prince belongs to the latter. Ira Blacker's autobiography is a stark, unvarnished journey from a childhood marked by institutionalization, fear, and family turmoil to the intoxicating heights of the rock 'n' roll world. Misdiagnosed, misunderstood, and caught in a household ruled by volatility, he learned early that survival required imagination, defiance, and grit. Those same instincts would later propel him into the inner circles of the music business, where ambition, celebrity, excess, and opportunity collided. This is not a glossy tale of fame. It is a deeply personal reckoning of anger and resilience, betrayal and loyalty, collapse and comeback. Blacker writes with candor and sharp wit about the forces that shaped him, the chaos behind the curtain of the entertainment industry, and the emotional cost of chasing success while carrying unresolved wounds. Brutally honest yet unexpectedly inspiring, this memoir pulls back the curtain on both a turbulent upbringing and a wild ride through music history, revealing a man who refused to be defined by his beginnings and ultimately claimed his own crown. Claim your front-row seat to resilience.
