Never Leave: The Story of Knowledge Toussaint
Latest Release
September 15, 2023
You have to ‘know’ the ‘ledge’, so you don’t fall off of it. Knowledge is power.
Knowledge Toussaint was exposed to a fast life of grittiness. Being forced to maneuver through a life based on survival at the tender age of ten years old, he depended on a mother whose life was driven by addiction. All it took were two bullets to change Knowledge’s life forever. When he’s forced to leave his mother behind, he’s taken in by one of the most prestigious hit men in the city of Miami, Booney. As Booney leads Knowledge through an underworld of darkness, he also shines light by teaching him how to play the game of life called ‘Chess’. Confidant, yet reserved. Alluring, yet monstrous to some; the power of Knowledge couldn’t be denied. For the first time in his life, he shares his story through his lens, however, with a motive. Knowledge allows us to get deep into his mind as we follow the different seasons of his journey, his battles, his ruthlessness, and his women. Not being the one to allow many to get close to him, when he did reserve a spot in the black hole in his heart, he had one most absolute request: Never Leave.
