Empire State of Mind tells the story behind Jay-Z’s rise to the top as told by the people who lived it with him—from classmates at brooklyn’s George Westinghouse High school, to the childhood friend who got him into the drug trade, to the DJ who persuaded him to stop dealing and focus on music. Zack o’malley Greenburg draws on exclusive interviews with hip-hop luminaries such as DJ clark kent, Questlove, Damon Dash, fab 5 freddy, nba stars Jamal crawford and sebastian telfair, and recording industry executives such as craig kallman, the ceo of atlantic Records. ■■National Publicity ■■www.zogreenburg.com zack o’malleY greenburg is a staff writer at Forbes, where he has covered finance and music since 2005.

lies in understanding the “customer Referral cycle” — the way customers<br />

refer others to your company who, in turn, generate even more referrals. if<br />

everyone in the organization keeps this in mind, Jantsch argues, your business<br />

will generate referrals like a well-oiled machine.<br />
