Less than two years after dropping his latest book, 2019’s Mixtape Potluck, Questlove already has another one in the chamber.
The Roots drummer took to social media on Wednesday and announced that he’ll be releasing a new book titled Music Is History this fall.
“People my people! Great news! My sixth book #MusicIsHistory will be available October 12th 2021!” he wrote in an Instagram post. “Here we’ll look at the last 50 years of America through the prism of music, and the last fifty years of Music through the prism of history. Pre-order your copy via that lank in my bio!”
