About the Author

Bobby Mcelrath was once considered as an original OG. The streets and prison became his life until he met a man who came from the coast of Africa to America and helped him change his way of thinking. Bishop Wesley Arijie helped Bobby to go from incarceration to inspiration. From the early days to The Game Chose Me, some people will understand that sometimes the life they live isn’t the life they chose.
