In his memoir, Rich details the difficulties he faced while growing up in a “crime-ridden” part of Cleveland, Ohio. He delves deep into the issues he faced with his mother's drug addiction. Rich also explains in the memoir how she often didn't come home and how he coped with these challenges. Reflecting on his mindset as a child, he explained that he “built up this wall” around him to “move forward” knowing that his mother is absent from his life for the most part. He said, “Like, mom is not coming home.”

Speaking about the ‘Rolling in the Deep’ singer's reaction to ‘Lucky Me’, Rich revealed that for the most part it “probably hit home” for Adele, whose father had been absent from her life for years, only to reappear once she became famous during her 20s. He said, “So yeah it was a difficult read for her,” as per People. Adele, herself has dealt with pain and loss in her life. She once opened up about her childhood struggles and losing her beloved grandfather to cancer when she was only 10 years old. The Grammy award-winning singer and LeBron's longtime manager have been in a relationship for over two years.
