About the Author

Chauncey “Chino Dolla” Stevens is a native of Atlanta/Athens, GA. He is a producer, rapper, and author along with being the C.E.O of MasterMind Music, the record label that founded the careers of Grammy nominated rap star Yung Joc, and Grammy winning producers Elvis Williams and Christopher “Flame” Ussery. Chino’s first shot in the music business he hit it big. Along with Sean “P. Diddy” Combs and Russell “Big Block” Spencer, Chino co-executive produced Yung Joc’s 2006 debut platinum selling album New Joc City, where he produced and featured on the street hit “Dope Boy Magic”. But with all the success was also a world of unforeseen problems. In 2007 Chino found himself faced with nothing but legal woes. In early 2007 Chino had to file a civil lawsuit against Block Entertainment for breach of contract and other claims in violation of their joint venture agreement. Then to make matters worse Chino made a grave mistake that caused him to receive 120 months in Federal Prison at the end of 2007.
Not letting the dirt thrown on his back bury him, instead Chino let it plant him to grow into a great author and has pinned two extraordinary memoirs and a how to manual. “A Hustlers Dream 1: Grinding in Atlanta’s Hip Hop Underworld” and “A Hustlers Dream 2: The Betrayal & Deceit at the Top of the World”. Both are amazingly written life-motivating stories. His how to manual “10 Rap Commandments: Tips and Secrets to Make it to the Top of the Music Business”, is not different. They are all available at Chinodollar.com, where he also offers instrumental downloads for artists to record on for $4.99.
