Jay-Z has never been one to drop a music project without the proper promotion. Now, he’s proving that the same will be true for his memoir.

Hov will be giving a talk at the New York Public Library on November 15 to discuss his forthcoming memoir, Decoded. As previously reported, the Brooklyn native will be releasing a 336-page book which combines lyrics, interviews with loved ones, and memoir. Although it has been in the works for some time, the tome will not come out until November 16, the day after Jay gives his talk.

In related news Jigga Man will be heading to Australia and New Zealand for concert dates alongside U2 just weeks after the release of Decoded. —Adam Fleischer
