RANKED #1 Amazon Accelerator. $350 Million In Sales. Herbal Ecstacy, Vapir and many more!
He’s been been called many things in his life (including the “Willy Wonka of Generation X”), but his favorite one is simple: the world’s leading Amazon industry expert.
His new book: “BILLION: How I Became King Of The Thrill Pill Cult”
A billion dollars in sales, or was it 350 million? Who was really keeping track, anyway? From underground raves and Hollywood parties to run-ins with organized crime and going toe-to-toe with the US government itself, in this unbelievable autobiography, Shaahin Cheyene tells the often-bizarre story of how one rags-to-riches teenager commandeered the rising tide of music, money, and drugs in Venice Beach, California, in the 90s to become…THE KING OF THE THRILL PILL CULT.
Shaahin went from sleeping in his car to building a multi-million dollar empire that spanned the globe by the age of 18, earning him an international reputation as the mastermind of the “smart drug” movement and garnering the fierce attention of federal authorities.
His legal party drug, “Herbal Ecstacy,” took the music world by storm, putting this ordinary young man on an extraordinary collision course with a life of fame, fortune, and high-flying excess. But the higher you fly, the further the fall. With Big Pharma, disgruntled drug dealers, and federal regulators all itching to pull him down, how does one-man fight to keep this wild ride alive?
