Description
Summary:"From the suburbs of Chicago through art school, rap apprenticeships, and a life-changing car crash to a very 21st century kind of global fame, Kanye West has recorded in the coolest studios with the biggest names in music, revolutionizing hip-hop every step of the way. He has also ruined Talor Swift's night at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, told national TV audiences that 'George Bush does not care about black people,' and seems to have found a soul mate in socialite Kim Kardashian. Exploring his life, music and polemical rants like never before, Kanye West: God & Monster features quotes from all of the major players in his extraordinary life."--Back cover.
