SynopsisImagine having it all: money, celebrity, success.Imagine leaving it all behind -- to answer a higher calling.Sparked by his work with Sean "Puffy" Combs' Bad Boy Entertainment, Mason "Mase" Betha's meteoric rise to fame is one of rap's great success stories. In addition to performing on such hit singles as 112's "Only You," Puffy's "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down," Notorious B.I.G.'s "Mo Money, Mo Problems," and Mariah Carey's "Honey," Mase sky-rocketed as a solo artist whose languid vocal style set him apart. His debut album,Harlem World,went platinum and his next album,Double Up,was eagerly awaited. But just as he was poised to sign a multimillion-dollar deal with Bad Boy, Mase walked away.Mason Betha is now a pastor, inspirational speaker, and founder of a nondenominational group called S.A.N.E. (Saving a Nation Endangered) Ministries. Having turned his back on stardom, he reveals in this fascinating memoir the rhyme and reason behind his choice to leave a glamorous life of extraordinary wealth and influence to become a pastor with a powerful message for America's youth. Thought-provoking and illuminating,Revelationsis an undeniable testament to the enduring power of faith -- and to the limitless possibilities in a life transformed by God's guiding hand., The one-time hip-hop artist describes his early life in Harlem, his success in the world of music under the auspices of Sean Puffy Combs, and his decision to leave the music world behind to seek a new life as an ordained pastor.
