Beschreibung

Decoded is a book like no other: a collection of lyrics and their meanings that together tell the story of a culture, an art form, a moment in history, and one of the most provocative and successful artists of our time.<br><br>Praise for Decoded<br><br>"Compelling . . . provocative, evocative . . . Part autobiography, part lavishly illustrated commentary on the author's own work, Decoded gives the reader a harrowing portrait of the rough worlds Jay-Z navigated in his youth, while at the same time deconstructing his lyrics."-Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times<br><br> "One of a handful of books that just about any hip hop fan should own."-The New Yorker<br> <br> "Elegantly designed, incisively written . . . an impressive leap by a man who has never been known for small steps."-Los Angeles Times<br> <br> "A riveting exploration of Jay-Z's journey . . . So thoroughly engrossing, it reads like a good piece of cultural journalism."-The Boston Globe <br><br> "Shawn Carter's most honest airing of the experiences he drew on to create the mythic figure of Jay-Z . . . The scenes he recounts along the way are fascinating."-Entertainment Weekly <br><br>"Hip-hop's renaissance man drops a classic. . . . Heartfelt, passionate and slick."-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
