Books I Read: May to early October

After a long break, I'm back to one of my favorite pass times: reading. Here is a list and small reviews of the books I read this past summer. Roughly from May to the first week in October.

Decoded: A Musical Journey with Jay-Z Part 6

"So it's like this"

Decoded: My Musical Journey with Jay-Z Part 5

How Big can Jay get?

Decoded: A Musical Journey with Jay-Z Part 4

Decoded: A Musical Journey with Jay-Z Part 3

Oh god Jay,
look out behind you!!!

Decoded: A Musical Journey with Jay-Z Part 2

In Part 2, Jay-Z moves beyond childhood inspiration and talks about his earliest years in the game. I'm all ears.

Decoded: A Musical Journey with Jay-Z Part 1

(Lol, he looks like Urkel)

I started reading Jay-Z's decoded this week, and decided to listen to every song he mentions in the book. Jay has a pretty different background than I do (I was born in the late 80s, never been that into rap, didn't live in the hood, plus I'm white), so this should be a good way to expand my musical horizons.
