*On February 23rd, 2016 the WB Media Group features Author, Singer & Composer George Naim Cash

First time Author George Naim Cash shares the highlights of his life in his book The Good & The Bad. He shares his success and his failures as he makes the transition from being a young boy to a man. He became a talented teenage singer and member of a boy band whos dreams of becoming a entertainer were crushed so he turned to a life of crime. This is just the first part of this mans story which follows his life up to when he is about 27 years old. I loved the honesty in which this story is told and cant wait till the second installment of this Biography is released.

This autobiography is a complete true account of my life and my shenanigans. It all begins with sex, at what some may think was too young. It moves on to me being under a recording contract while in still in high school. I tell about my meeting Michael Jackson and his entire family back stage after a concert in New York & moving on into a life of crime, including drug trafficking, gun running & bank robbery. I talk about my time in prison and the very serious way that it made me a man. So join me on this very real life journey into a young mans life, and see where it lead me. Please be advised however, THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING!!! #FlameO
