Jay-Z's new book hitting the shelves this November.
The life and times of S. Carter have been discussed through rap lyrics, documentaries and behind the music specials, but if you want a deeper account of Jay-Z's life you can read about it in his new autobiography - Decoded. According to ROLLING STONE, the book will offer explanations about some of Jay-Z lyrics. Jay-Z explained to the mag:
"I'm gonna pick select ones ... all the double-entendres and things that people may have missed or may have gotten and want confirmation on it. It's not anything I haven't said in the past, in songs. It's just more detailed. A song is three minutes long. A book doesn't have to rhyme, and it has no time limit, so you can say exactly how everything went."
Jay-Z teamed up with The Source editor Dream Hampton for the 336 page book, which will include interviews with Jay-Z's family and friends as well as the rapper, himself.
Since Decoded was completed several years ago, it has not been revealed whether it will feature additional chapters detailing Jay-Z’s last few years, including The Blueprint 3, his 360 deal with Live Nation, being a part owner of the New Jersey Nets or his marriage to Beyonce. Decoded is slated to hit bookstores November 16th.
