If Jay-Z’s collective body of work was “Food For Thought” as he stated on the intro to his ‘Dynasty’ album, author and Forbes staff writer Zack O’Malley Greenburg does this dishes in his literary debut “Empire State Of Mind: How Jay-Z Went From Street Corner To Corner Office”. Greenburg uses his extensive resources (perhaps garnered as the crafter of the famous “Hip-Hop Forbes” list) to unravel the business acumen Jay-Z has used to catapult himself to financial prosperity.
“Empire State of Mind” provides an in-depth look at Jay-Z’s earliest hustling days in Maryland to the inner workings of his biggest business dealings as told by those closest to him. In addition, “Empire” debunks a lot of common misconceptions regarding Jay-Z, such as why the song “Brooklyn’s Finest” featuring hip-hop legend Notorious B.I.G almost didn’t happen, the true originator of the ‘no pen, no pad’ songwriting method and Jay-Z’s first interactions with Tupac Shakur prior to the birth of Jay-Z’s career.
“Empire State of Mind” is a great read for rap fans and aspiring entrepreneurs who too wish to move “from street corner to corner office”. You can purchase your copy of “Empire State of Mind” by Clicking Here
