Zay-Money Jefferson's life in the Ashtray Courts projects was already a dumpster fire. Then his homies got pregnant.

Not a joke. Lil' Dre and T-Bone, two dudes from the block, are suddenly, impossibly, expecting. And Zay, ever the hustler with a (now mostly missing) gold grill and a desperate need to be somebody, sees an opportunity. Or so he thinks.

What follows is a hilariously profane, brutally satirical, and surprisingly poignant odyssey through the underbelly of poverty, media exploitation, and the search for dignity in a world that treats your pain as prime-time entertainment. From demonic ultrasound pics to reality TV contracts from hell, Zay and his "Belly Bump Bros" become global sensations, even as their lives, and their neighborhood, crumble around them.

Narrated by a voice as sharp as a prison shiv and funnier than a stand-up in a straightjacket, this novel will make you laugh, cringe, and maybe even shed a tear for the most outrageous baby daddies you'll ever meet.

Warning: Contains strong language, dark humor, and situations that will make you question everything you thought you knew about biology and human decency. You've been warned. You'll also probably love it.
