In his debut memoir, Jean Mellor invites his readers to experience his life through his words.

Whether he is holding things down in Queens, or making important connections in Hollywood, Mellor captures the struggles of a young man whose life is created by his actions, not his name.

Hilarious at times and depressing at others, Bingo: It’s Not A Game spans the course of Mellor’s stages of adulthood, and features a great many hip-hop and rap stars along the way.
