From Survival to Self-Empowerment, Former Death Row Records Artist, Author, and Entrepreneur SKG Turns Life Experiences Into a Message of Strength, Perseverance, and Personal Growth.
Recording artist, author, and entrepreneur SKG (Helecia Choyce) proudly announces that both of her books, The Monster Within and SKG: All Bets on Me — 30-Day Self-Affirmation Journal, are officially available.
For SKG, 2026 has been a defining year of growth, transformation, and personal achievement. Known for her contributions to hip-hop as a former Death Row Records recording artist, SKG continues to expand her creative legacy beyond music, using her voice to inspire others through literature, storytelling, and self-empowerment.
Her deeply personal memoir, The Monster Within, takes readers on an emotional journey through some of the most challenging experiences of her life. Through powerful storytelling, SKG shares her journey of survival, courage, resilience, and the determination to overcome adversity. The memoir is more than a reflection of her past; it is a testament to the strength it takes to reclaim one’s voice and move forward despite life’s obstacles.
Building on that message of perseverance, SKG introduces her latest literary project, All Bets on Me, a 30-day self-affirmation and reflection journal designed to encourage readers to embrace self-love, rebuild confidence, establish personal goals, and remain committed to becoming the best versions of themselves.
Together, the two books represent different chapters of the same powerful message: Your past does not define your future, and no matter what life throws your way, you should never stop believing in yourself.
“Releasing two books in one year is something I’m extremely proud of,” says SKG. “This year has been about growth, perseverance, and turning my life experiences into something meaningful. The Monster Within represents what I’ve survived, while All Bets on Me represents everything I’m becoming. I want people to understand that regardless of what they’ve been through, their story isn’t over. Never give up on yourself, your dreams, or the person you’re destined to become.”
