Product Information

NOW A NEW YORK TIMES , USA TODAY , AND PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY BESTSELLER "Dyson writes with the affection of a fan but the rigor of an academic. ... Using extensive passages from Jay-Z's lyrics, 'Made in America' examines the rapper's role as a poet, an aesthete, an advocate for racial justice and a business, man, but devotes much of its energy to Hova the Hustler." -- Allison Stewart, The Washington Post "Dyson's incisive analysis of JAY-Z's brilliance not only offers a brief history of hip-hop's critical place in American culture, but also hints at how we can best move forward." --Questlove JAY-Z: Made in America is the fruit of Michael Eric Dyson's decade of teaching the work of one of the greatest poets this nation has produced, as gifted a wordsmith as Walt Whitman, Robert Frost and Rita Dove. But as a rapper, he's sometimes not given the credit he deserves for just how great an artist he's been for so long. This book wrestles with the biggest themes of JAY-Z's career, including hustling, and it recognizes the way that he's always weaved politics into his music, making important statements about race, criminal justice, black wealth and social injustice. As he enters his fifties, and to mark his thirty years as a recording artist, this is the perfect time to take a look at JAY-Z's career and his role in making this nation what it is today. In many ways, this is JAY-Z's America as much as it's Pelosi's America, or Trump's America, or Martin Luther King's America. JAY-Z has given this country a language to think with and words to live by. Featuring a Foreword by Pharrell

Named a November must-read by Salon A The Washington Post 50 notable works of nonfiction in 2019 "A jewel of a book." -- Veronica Chambers for Shondaland "Under Dyson's guidance, to read about Jay-Z is to learn not just about the journey and works but also about ourselves, our history, our world, and our way forward... we are sitting in a classroom under the spell of a captivating teacher." -- Library Journal , Starred Review "[An] astute cultural biography... Dyson's excellent study serves as a succinct blueprint of Jay-Z's artistry and legacy." -- Publisher's Weekly "[Dyson] makes his case that as a truth-telling racial unifier, political influence, and 'vocal evangelist for developing generational wealth in black communities,' Jay-Z represents a symbol of 'overcoming' for hip-hop culture and American society." -- Booklist "Michael Eric Dyson, a preeminent public intellectual, has covered the waterfront of black cultural criticism -- from politics to pop culture, from race to religion. With JAY-Z: Made in America , he returns to his roots and offers us a poignant portrait of one of hip hop's most intriguing figures, a brilliant self-made man who, if he didn't exist, you'd have to invent. This tour de force takes full measure of an icon who is an American original like no other!" -- Henry-Louis Gates "If you want the definitive treatment of a man who took it from Marcy Projects to the White House with wit, wisdom, and talent, and changed hip hop along the way, look no further than this insightful and moving book." -- Common "My Brooklyn Homeboy JAY-Z is one of the most prolific and gifted rappers of all time.

This is a fascinating and fulfilling book that eloquently engages one of the most profound and influential artists of our time ." --Al Sharpton "Jay-Z's music has helped to shape a generation, and his rise from hustler to billionaire is an inspiration to millions.
