EMPIRE STATE OF MIND - ZACK OMALLEY GREENBURG K...

Now updated and revised-from Forbes senior editor  a compelling portrait of American rapper Jay
Z and his rise from the Brooklyn projects to the top of the business world. Only a handful of
people embody the legacy of hip-hop and entrepreneurship like Jay Z. A modern-day King Midas 
everything he touches-sports bars  streaming services  record labels  and cognac-turns to gold.
How exactly did he do it? Forbes senior editor Zack O'Malley Greenburg reveals the story of Jay
Z's legendary rise from the Marcy Projects of Brooklyn to stages and corner offices worldwide.
He draws on over 100 interviews with those who knew Jay Z from the beginning: his classmates at
George Westinghouse High School  the childhood friend who got him into the drug trade  and the
DJ who convinced him to stop dealing and focus on the music. Also bearing witness are the
artists who worked alongside him  including J. Cole and Alicia Keys. Jay Z's life is a
blueprint for any hustler  businessperson  and entrepreneur who seeks to build something
spectacular.
