Review
“Intertwined with a larger narrative about the evolution of an artist is the equally compelling story of how fame can simultaneously instill confidence, delusion, and insecurity. More than a cursory summary of quotes, Beaumont’s in-depth depiction of West is an honest attempt to understand one of music’s most controversial subjects.”
- Library Journal (Starred Review)
“Beaumont’s fully dimensional portrait of this controversial performer does provide West fans and all readers interested in hip-hop with a context for West's exploits and hugely popular music.”
- Booklist
“Beaumont did his homework - there are eight pages of sources cited in the index - piecing together West's story, using media interviews spanning more than a decade. The author builds a convincing case that West is a creative music genius, with an eye for fashion, video directing and design.”
