Bobby Brown Working on Memoir to Tell Bobbi Kristina Death, Whitney Houston Marriage Details

R&B singer Bobby Brown has had a pretty extensive career and has often made headlines for his bad boy persona, marriage to the late Whitney Houston, and the untimely death of his daughter, Bobbi Kristina. Now, Brown is puttting it all on paper and telling his story his own way in a memoir entitled My Perogative, in which he will share candid details of his troubled marriage to Houston and dealing with the 2015 death of his daughter.

The former New Edition member has signed a deal with Dey Street Books to release the tell-all memoir in June of 2016, according to the Associated Press. Brown signed on with the publishing company to tell his story in his own words before the death of his daughter, Bobbi Kristina, which happened on July 26. He said working on this book has been therapeutic for him in dealing with the happenings of that, and the death of her mother, Houston, whose body was found in a bathtub in Beverly Hills, CA in 2012.

According to Rolling Out, Dey Street is giving Brown the opportunity to "set the record straight" in what they are calling a "raw and unvarnished" account of his life story and the turmoil surrounding his rise and fall in the music industry. The story will cover his struggles with drugs and alcohol, and frequent stints in rehab. Also, it will tell the ups and downs between the New Edition group members, from the time he co-founded the group to the moment he left to pursue his successful solo career.

New Edition is also set to start working on their own biopic. According to Boom Box, the project has been given the green light to move forward and group members Michael Bivins, Ralph Tresvant, Ricky Bell, Ronnie DeVoe and Johnny Gill have all signed on as co-producers of the film without Brown's involvement. The reasoning could possibly be revealed in the upcoming tell-all.

According to Hollyscoop, the 46-year-old has been shopping around the idea of a memoir for quite some time, but the timing was never perfect.
