JAY-Z – “DECODED”

The Misses(my gf) was kind enough to cop this for me. I’ve heard alot about this book so I’m going to dive right into and try to enjoy and see if I can learn anything. I’ll keep you posted periodically.

Spiegel & Grau to Publish Book by Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter on 11/16/10!

New York, NY (September 22, 2010)— On Tuesday, November 16, 2010, Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter and publisher Spiegel & Grau, an imprint of the Random House Publishing Group, are set to release Decoded, the first book written by the multi-platinum, 10 time Grammy Award winning entrepreneur and icon. Unique in every sense, Decoded is a narrative journey through the lyrics and life of one of the most prolific artists of our time.

Featuring an image of Andy Warhol’s Rorschach on the cover, the beautifully designed, fully-illustrated book decodes 36 songs from JAY-Z’s extensive catalog. By telling the stories behind some of Jay-Z’s most famous and provocative lyrics, Decoded offers an intimate, first-hand account of an artist, his work, and the culture that so powerfully shaped him.

In addition to the hardcover release, Random House will publish Decoded as an eBook, as well as an interactive iPhone/iPad application that will include exclusive video and customizable content that will allow users to delve into a deeper Decoded experience.

“This is a book that could only have come from JAY-Z. Every aspect of it reflects his style and ambition and heart. The unique structure he devised – combining intense personal narratives with revealing ‘decodings’ of some of his most powerful lyrics – underlines his central mission for the book: to use his famously layered and poetic lyrics and his one-of-a-kind life story to tell a wider story about the world he grew up in and the transformative power of hip-hop. JAY’s rigorous attention to every detail of the book, right down to the book’s jacket, which he art directed, was impressive, and the depth of his thinking – about his experiences and lyrics, but also about the creative process, the poetry of hip-hop, and the art of life – was a constant revelation. This is a book that will offer gratifying surprises and insights to both the long-time JAY-Z fan and to the reader who might meet him here for the first time.”
– Chris Jackson, Executive Editor, Spiegel & Grau

FROM DECODED
“When I first started working on this book, I told my editor that I wanted it to do three important things. The first was to make the case that hip-hop lyrics—not just my lyrics, but those of every great MC—are poetry if you look at them closely enough. The second was I wanted the book to tell a little bit of the story of my generation, to show the context for the choices we made at a violent and chaotic crossroads in recent history. And the third piece was that I wanted the book to show how hip-hop created a way to take a very specific and powerful experience and turn it into a story that everyone in the world could feel and relate to.” – JAY-Z

Do I really need to? I mean c’mon. The cement 3? Yeah I thought so. This months #RoboCop goes to one of my favorite J’s out.

This is the first Jordan sneaker ever to feature the ever-popular “Elephant Print” and the Jumpman logo as well as the first Air Jordan with visible Air cushioning. May the Sneakerhead be with you on January 22, 2011. Look out for the Rock-n-Cop vid the morning of the 22nd.

Jordan XIII Red/White

With all the hype surrounding the Flint Blue 13′s and the Cool Grey 11′s, The Red/White color way of the Jordan 13 can easily be overlooked. However the true shoe collector is more than keen and aware of this shoes re-release which turned just as many heads and shoe lovers. Some even argue that these out-do the Flints but to each his own. Look for these to drop a week before the Flints in November. They’ll run $175

Epicenter Twenty Ten RE-CAP

This year’s Epicenter Twenty Ten was more like a center of epic proportions. After all, Epicenter only drew 50,000 music lovers during a two-day period and featured some of music’s most renowned and influential names in rock, indie, hip-hop, and alternative music. Take for example Eminem, who is arguably one of hip-hop’s dopest MC’s. With his only California show of the year, Em’s headlining performance, which featured a cameo from Detroit rap group D-12, by far drew the biggest fan base with ages ranging from 8 years old to 40. Missing out on his show was like missing out on bit of musical history. But wait! It gets worst – for the better. Kiss was also in attendance for what was their only California appearance as well to finish off Day-1 of the festival. Day 1 also included The Envy, Kinda Major, Smile Empty Soul,The Knux, Big B, House of Pain, Duece, Crash Kings, Big Boi, Papa Roach, and Bush. Bush was a really great show that stood out in our minds. With it being their first show in almost a decade, they commanded the stage and tamed the anxious crowd at their will. I personally have never experience anything like it.

We were in attendance for day one of the memorable festival where our shooters caught some pretty epic moments. So here are few flicks of Bush and Papa Roach. We will more of the recap as  we catch u on events.

We would like to thank Aaron Feterl, Marcee Rondan, Kristine Ashton-Magnuson, all the staff at Epicenter Fest for all their assistance in allowing us cover such a remarkable concert series. We are looking forward to next year.
