Jay-Z’s book Decoded hits shelves today, a culmination of a promotional blitz hitting all forms of media the last few days. Yesterday, we brought you Jay-Z’s interview from The Howard Stern Show, while today, other outlets such as Hot 97 and CNNMoney.com, among several others, have more interviews from the mogul. We thought we’d bring you a recap of selected interviews and write-ups about Decoded in once place, as the book hits stores.
As mentioned, Jay-Z appeared on the Howard Stern show, and later in the day, at the New York Public Library, along with Dr. Cornell West, for a reading from Decoded. Today, we caught Jay-Z interviewed on video for CNNMoney, as well as on ABCNews (Editor’s note: No, she didn’t get dressed special for the occasion, lol…)
As we mentioned yesterday, the New York Post and the Daily News published excerpts from Decoded. Today, New York’s Hot 97 Cipha Sounds & Rosenberg morning show played snippits from their extensive interview with Jay-Z. The entire interview can be downloaded from Peter Rosenberg’s website, www.RosenbergRadio.com.
Rosenberg mentioned that Jay-Z will be appearing at a Barnes & Noble bookstore for a signing, but we have not been able to verify that, and in fact, earlier reports said decidedly that he would not be doing any signings. We’ll update as more becomes known.
