Khallid Muhammad is still revered today as a Hip-Hop Icon, due to his appearances on multi-platinum selling albums by Public Enemy and Ice Cube. In addition to his relationship with the immortal rapper, Tupac Shakur, Khallid was featured on the latest Grammy award winning album by D'Angelo, and is often praised by rap heroine, Lauren Hill, and the "King of the South" trap artist, T.I.

Khallid was also a force behind the LA Riots, that resulted from the Rodney King police beating in 1992, which has led to the current uprisings against police killings all over America. The Book of Khallid contains exclusive insight into Khallid's close father-son relationship with the celebrity-businessman, and international best-selling author, Farrah Gray, who survived the assassination attempt on his father's life. Much of Farrah's early entrepreneurial genius mimics his father's bright success as a youth. The Book of Khallid provides unreported information into Khallid Muhammad's up and down relationship with his mentor, Louis Farrakhan, the most vocal and recognized Black and Muslim leader of the last 35 years, and renowned for his massive Million Man March. Speaking on, The Book of Khallid, Dr. Cornel West says, "I think it is very important because I think he's been misunderstood and misconstrued. I think people are so easy to fall for stereotype and don't stay in contact with the love in his heart, mind and soul. Most importantly, is the way in which you infuse that love with being a warrior."
