While I am not always the biggest fan of JAY's social commentary or hyper-capitalism, this exhibition of his many accomplishments is quite expansive, impressive and inspiring.

"The Book Of HOV is a tribute exhibition at the Brooklyn Public Library, Central Branch, recognizing Shawn 'JAY-Z' Carter’s extraordinary journey from Brooklyn’s Marcy Projects to global figure.

The multimedia exhibit explores JAY-Z’s global impact as a musician, innovator, entrepreneur, and philanthropist.

The Book Of HOV presents thousands of archived objects, including original recording masters, never-before-seen photos, iconic stage wear, prestigious awards and recognitions, as well as videos and artifacts from every facet on JAY-Z’s professional life. Our goal, with The Book of HOV tribute exhibition, is to provide a behind-the-scenes look at a Hall of Fame songwriter and performer, successful business person, and a consequential philanthropist who has never forgotten the lessons he learned on the road to success. And the borough where his journey began.

Always bet on yourself."

During the beginning, New York City was going bankrupt, civil unrest and riots were breaking out across the United States, and arts and music programs were removed from schools. Through the violence, rubble and neglect emerged a new generation of youth and superheroes who refused to settle for less and created a new way of life which is responsible for today’s multi-trillion-dollar Hip Hop industry." #UHHM #BlackHistoryMonth #REvolutionofHipHop #PreserveTheCulture #HipHop #Museum #Interactive #HipHopExhibition #TheBronx #TraScapades #BlackGirlArtGeeks🤓 #BlackGirlMovieGeeks🤓 https://www.instagram.com/p/B8rL-D1gTqB/?igshid=t4b0p0pcc1ft
