Promise That You Will Sing About Me: The Power and Poetry of Kendrick Lamar Hardcover – September 28, 2021

Perfect! Thank you Amazon!

The unassuming cover and title made me think this was someone gushy over Kendrick Lamars works. But when I opened the book I was surprised to see a fascinating introduction and first chapter and beautiful book filled with art. It’s an amazing coffee table book where someone can look at the art or dive into a story. Pictures are scattered all throughout the book that illustrates a point being made or just starting off a new chapter. Definitely worth buying the physical copy

I truly enjoyed reading this book. I read it in two days I couldn’t put it down must buy must read.

Great listen, loved hearing the symbolism and overarching stories in the album.

Only protection was on the top, none beneath or on the sides.

I definitely feel like this book deserves all the hype in the world. It's executed perfectly, told in such a compelling way, provides information on less discussed topics, and brings humor and accessibility to the forefront! The narrator did a really fantastic job and brought the written words to life. There was a huge echo for me, but I'm not sure if that was due to the NetGalley Shelf app or the narrator itself.I will say that I am not a fan of memoirs or biographies at all. I picked this up because I also had a physical ARC and I'm super interested in Kendrick Lamar so I figured if I wanted to give the genre one last try- this would be the book. I can see the appeal, but this really just solidified for me that I'm not a memoir/biography reader at all. The genre just doesn't do it for me. This is not to say anything bad about this book AT ALL! The genre as a whole just isn't for me and I've finally realized that and won't be picking up anymore in the near future. In comparison to other biographies I've read, this one is fantastic and I highly recommend picking it up!

This is a gift and she was very appreciative of it.

I’d like to receive my item without damage. I’ll be returning this for replacement.
