Jay Z has released a new book of his memoirs called Decoded. It is not a tell all auto biography like the ones Jordan and Kerry Katona whore out to the public once a year so you wont be reading any juicy details about his marriage to Beyonce. Instead he is 'decoding' his famous rap lyrics and telling the stories that influenced them. He also writes about his tough times growing up in a tough neighbourhood, eventually becoming a drug dealer before becoming a hip hop superstar.
Ive always loved Jay Zs music and have a lot of his songs on my ipod (yeah Irish white girl rocking out to Jay Z!) He is one of the few rappers out there whose lyrics actually catch my attention and make me stop and listen. He is by far one of the cleverest lyricists out there and to think he never writes any of these lyrics down he just spits them out.
