Story
Fat Joe is a hip-hop legend, but this is not a tale of celebrity; it is the story of Joseph Cartagena, a kid who came of age in the South Bronx during its darkest years of drugs, violence, and abandonment, and how he navigated that traumatizing landscape until he found—through art, friendship, luck, and will—a rocky path to a different life. This memoir, written in Joe’s own intensely compelling voice, moves with the momentum of pulp fiction, but underneath the tragicomedy and riveting tales of the streets and the industry is a thought-provoking story about a generation of survivors.

As one of the music world’s most iconic artists and the cofounder of the organizations ONE and (RED), Bono’s career has been written about extensively. But in Surrender, it’s Bono who picks up the pen, writing for the first time about his remarkable life and those he has shared it with. In his unique voice, Bono takes us from his early days growing up in Dublin, including the sudden loss of his mother when he was fourteen, to U2’s unlikely journey to become one of the world’s most influential rock bands, to his more than twenty years of activism.

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

Thurston Moore moved to Manhattan’s East Village in 1978 with a yearning for music. He wanted to be immersed in downtown New York’s sights and sounds—the feral energy of its nightclubs, the angular roar of its bands, the magnetic personalities within its orbit. But more than anything, he wanted to make music—to create indelible sounds that would move, provoke, and inspire. His dream came to life in 1981 with the formation of Sonic Youth, a band Moore cofounded with Kim Gordon and Lee Ranaldo.

Story
It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today. This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival, and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

A delightful journey through Oakeys' adventures
I've been a fan for decades and own a crate of his music, but I knew little of his early career development and achievements. Indeed a humble fella with a vase array of accomplishments, Paul's story is entertaining and inspiring. Learning about his early Shenanigans in the club scenes from his twenties reminded me of my escapades, although mine was actually my thirties not even close in scale and influence. What he brought to the electronic music scene was groundbreaking; we owe him a lot, although he also probably contributed unknowingly to a little of my hearing loss. You'll probably love this book if you love Oakey as much as I do. It's an easy read, and if you're like me, you'll accompany it with intermissions to listen to various tracks he references along the journey. Thanks, Paul; you're still my favorite Superstar DJ.

Just alright
I was really looking forward to this one as I've been an Oakey fan since 2001. I prefer biographical audio books to be read by the author but they did a good job casting the reader for this. He sounds a bit like Oakenfold so it works for me. The story though was meh and unfortunately I just couldn't finish this one, even with just 2 hours left. I found the story to be presented in a boastful way, superstar DJ this and that and so and so this and that (lots of name dropping). This is primarily about his accomplishments, which just got to be too much. I wished there were behind the scenes stories, adventures he could speak of as you know he's got good stories. This one is a pass for me, sadly....sorry, Oakey :(
