Second Jay-Z Book in the Works, ‘Empire State of Mind: How Jay-Z Went From Street Corner to Corner Office.’

Decoded to me gave me almost the same feeling when Obama was inaugurated. It showed me and millions like me, and like Jay Z that there IS hope coming from the unfortunate situataions the youth has to deal with and manage when being a product of your environment, meaning being from the “ghetto/hood”. Some struggle, some drown from the pointing fingers and that very small few that land on level ground we rarely hear from or ABOUT. Inspiration and hope breeds success. We as in Us needed this Jay. The albums spoke volumes, but the book takes it to a new untouched level. Thanks bro,
