Ever wondered how Kanye West and Snoop Dogg rose to stardom? By far, one of the most polarizing figures in rap music over the last decade has been Kanye West. Originally exploding onto the music scene as a hotheaded young rapper with fiery passion and incredibly insightful lyrics, West quickly became one of the biggest figures in the genre. With each successive album, West proved that he was unafraid of blurring the lines between rap music and other genres, such as rock and pop music. However, with fame came a flood of negative media attention, mostly stemming from the artist’s volatile behavior, which including public outbursts, on-stage rants, and unsettlingly egotistical interviews. With one of the most distinct voices in rap music, the man known as Snoop Dogg has become recognized as one of the living legends of the genre. Boasting a sly sense of humor and a laid-back and accessible personality, Snoop Dogg first rose to fame as one of the young talents in West Coast rap. Although his sleepy demeanor and constant smile allowed him to crossover to mainstream success as one of the most accessible stars in gangsta rap, Snoop Dogg continued to flirt with criminal activity and frequent run-ins with the law throughout his influential career.

INSTANT #1 BESTSELLER FINALIST for the 2021 National Jewish Book Awards SHORTLISTED for the 2022 Rakuten Kobo Emerging Writer Prize A collection of funny personal essays from one of the writers of Superbad and Pineapple Express and one of the producers of The Disaster Artist, Neighbors, and The Boys. (All of these words have been added to help this book show up in people’s searches using the wonders of algorithmic technology. Thanks for bearing with us!) Hi! I’m Seth! I was asked to describe my book, Yearbook, for the inside flap (which is a gross phrase) and for websites and shit like that, so… here it goes!!! Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it’s likely the former, which is a fancy “book” way of saying “the first one.”) I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs, and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like. I also talk about some of my adventures in Los Angeles, and surely say things about other famous people that will create a wildly awkward conversation for me at a party one day. I hope you enjoy the book should you buy it, and if you don’t enjoy it, I’m sorry. If you ever see me on the street and explain the situation, I’ll do my best to make it up to you.

This “smart, confident, and necessary” (Shea Serrano, New York Times bestselling author) first cultural biography of rap superstar and “master of storytelling” (The New Yorker) Kendrick Lamar explores his meteoric rise to fame and his profound impact on a racially fraught America­—perfect for fans of Zack O’Malley Greenburg’s Empire State of Mind. Kendrick Lamar is at the top of his game. The thirteen-time Grammy Award­-winning rapper is just in his early thirties, but he’s already won the Pulitzer Prize for Music, produced and curated the soundtrack of the megahit film Black Panther, and has been named one of Time’s 100 Influential People. But what’s even more striking about the Compton-born lyricist and performer is how he’s established himself as a formidable adversary of oppression and force for change. Through his confessional poetics, his politically charged anthems, and his radical performances, Lamar has become a beacon of light for countless people. Written by veteran journalist and music critic Marcus J. Moore, this is much more than the first biography of Kendrick Lamar. “It’s an analytical deep dive into the life of that good kid whose m.A.A.d city raised him, and how it sparked a fire within Kendrick Lamar to change history” (Kathy Iandoli, author of Baby Girl) for the better.
