The Chronicles of DOOM

Unravelling Rap's Masked Iconoclast

Icons of Style

Genre trailblazer in both music and fashion, Charli XCX is revising the rules on self-expression as a popstar. From the bright patterns of the 2010s to the grungy, hyperpop style of Brat Summer, Charli XCX has reigned over the cool-girl aesthetic on stage and in the club for over a decade. Discovering the foundations of her style in the London rave scene, it would lead to the rebellious, asymmetrical layers and dark leathers of her current looks, always accessorised with sunglasses - indoors, of course. With this beautifully illustrated guide to her style trajectory, key looks and signature pieces, explore the high-energy, innovative and edgy world of Charli XCX's style.

The story of a fashion legend

Icons of Style: Charli XCX

*An Observer Best New Biographies of 2024*?*Now in paperback!*Celebrated NPR music critic Ann Powers explores the life and career of Joni Mitchell in a lyrical style as fascinating and ethereal as the songs of the artist herself.“What you are about to read is not a standard account of the life and work of Joni Mitchell. Instead, it’s a tale of long journeying through a life that changed popular music: of a homesick wanderer forging ahead on routes of her own invention, and of me on her trail, heading toward the ringing of her voice.”—From the introductionFor decades, Joni Mitchell’s life and music have enraptured listeners. One of the most celebrated artists&nbsp;of her generation, Mitchell has inspired countless musicians—from peers like James Taylor, to inheritors like Prince and Brandi Carlile—and authors, who have dissected her music and her life in their writing. At the same time, Mitchell has always been a force beckoning us still closer, as—with the other arm—she pushes us away. Given this, music critic Ann Powers wondered if there was another way to draw insights from the life of this singular musician who never stops moving, never stops experimenting.In&nbsp;Traveling, Powers seeks to understand Mitchell through her myriad journeys. Through extensive interviews with Mitchell's peers and deep archival research, she takes readers to rural Canada, mapping the singer’s childhood battle with polio. She charts the course of Mitchell’s musical evolution, ranging from early folk to jazz fusion to experimentation with pop synthetics. She follows the winding road of Mitchell’s collaborations with other greats, and the loves that emerged along the way, all the way through to the remarkable return of Mitchell to music-making after&nbsp;the 2015 aneurysm that nearly took her life.Along this journey, Powers’ wide-ranging musings on the artist’s life and career reconsider the biographer’s role and the way it twines against the reality of a fan. In doing so, Traveling illustrates the shifting nature of biography, and the ultimate contradiction of celebrity: that an icon cannot truly, completely be known to a fan.Kaleidoscopic in scope, and intimate in its detail, Traveling is a fresh and fascinating addition to the Joni Mitchell canon, written by a biographer in full command of her gifts who asks as much of herself as of her subject.&nbsp;

'Excellent, meticulously researched biography' - The Guardian 'Katie Prescott's account could hardly be bettered' - Literary Review 'My book of the year' - Martin Vander Weyer, The Spectator 'A highly readable book' - Financial Times Named one of the Times and Sunday Times 'Best Books of 2025' A maverick outsider. An improbable life. An even more improbable death. Discover the real story of Mike Lynch, Britain's enigmatic billionaire. On the morning of 19th August 2024, the Bayesian yacht tragically sank off the coast of Sicily, taking with it the lives of Mike Lynch, his daughter and five others. Hours earlier, Lynch's associate and co-defendant in one of the biggest fraud cases in Silicon Valley history, Stephen Chamberlain, was hit by a car in Cambridge and killed. The odds of these two deaths occurring together were estimated at four in one billion. Drawing on extensive research and exclusive access to key sources, award-winning Times journalist Katie Prescott forensically explores the life and death of this elusive maverick. Prescott guides us from Lynch's humble beginnings, through his meteoric rise to CEO of Autonomy, and beyond to a vicious legal battle lasting more than a decade following the 2011 sale of Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard for more than £11bn. A truly brilliant feat of investigative reporting, this is a tale where nothing is quite as it appears. 'Totally gripping . . . A real-life story that reads like a novel' - Sathnam Sanghera, bestselling author of Empireland 'There is an old saying that most journalists have a bad book in them . . . Katie Prescott isn't one of them. If this was a film script no one would believe it' - Kamal Ahmed, journalist and author of Life and Times of a Very British Man 'A meticulously researched glimpse into the dark side of tech business in the UK . . . Riveting' - Parmy Olson, bestselling author of Supremacy

The Improbable Life & Death of a Tech Billionaire

The Curious Case of Mike Lynch

Die Geschichte hinter einer Deutschrap-Legende - erzählt von dem Mann, dessen Version bisher fehlte.

Sami Abdel Hadi war nicht nur Gründer, sondern auch eine der prägenden Stimmen eines der bekanntesten Straßenlabels im Deutschrap. Als engster Vertrauter und Freund von Xatar wurde er Teil einer Geschichte, die längst zur Legende geworden ist.

Doch seine eigene Sicht auf diese Ereignisse blieb bisher ungehört.

In Das Kapitel, das fehlt erzählt Sami Abdel Hadi zum ersten Mal selbst: vom Aufwachsen in schwierigen Verhältnissen, vom Suizid seines Vaters, vom Aufstieg von 'Alles oder Nix Records' und von den Ereignissen rund um Goldraub, Flucht, Folter, Bruch und Verlust.

Dieses Buch ist kein glorifizierter Rückblick, sondern eine schonungslose Innenansicht. Es korrigiert, was verzerrt wurde, und zeigt, was passieren kann, wenn Freundschaft, Ruhm und Geld aufeinanderprallen.

Ohne Filter, ohne Mythos und ohne Ausreden beschreibt Sami Abdel Hadi ein Leben, das immer nah am Abgrund verlief - frei nach dem Motto des Labels: Alles oder Nix.

Gleichzeitig erzählt er von einer engen Bruderschaft, von Loyalität, Schmerz und den letzten Wochen und Stunden vor dem Tod seines besten Freundes Xatar - einem Ereignis, das schließlich alles veränderte.

Dieses Buch ist mehr als eine Autobiografie.

Es ist ein Abschiedsbrief.

Ein Statement.

Und vielleicht endlich das fehlende Kapitel.

Über Freundschaft, Verrat und Treue, wenn alles zerbricht

Das Kapitel, das fehlt

Epic in scope and personal recollection, The Music Is Black is the story of British imperial and colonial histories, the African diaspora, and contemporary British social history put into song.Black British music has been the soundtrack to periods of profound political, social, cultural, and demographic change. It is the music of identity, indefatigability, resistance, anger, celebration, love, loss; it is the music of possibility and hope.Opening with an exploration of the sound and identity of the African diaspora as shaped by the tumultuous forces of British imperialism and colonialism from the 1400s to 1900, Jacqueline Springer then surveys the black musical landscape in Britain from 1900 to 1970. Two major imports-American rap and Jamaican ragga-are singled out for their vital contributions to the homegrown genres central to the publication: lovers rock, Brit funk, 2 tone, jungle, drum &amp; bass, trip-hop, and UK garage and grime.Each genre is then considered with an academic framing of its social and political landscape and artist interviews that include Carroll Thompson, Neville Staple, Kenny Wellington, Bluey Maunick, Fabio and Grooverider, Skye Edwards and Ross Godfrey of Morcheeba, Megaman, DJ Target, and Slimzee.The Music Is Black bears witness to the resilience, ingenuity, and heart of all those who create.

Frank Morrisons (geb. 1971, lebt in Atlanta) urbaner Manierismus feiert Widerstand und Würde im Alltag des Schwarzen Amerika. Der Künstler ist mit den strukturellen Ungerechtigkeiten Amerikas aufgewachsen und weiß aus Erfahrung, dass Kreativität und Gemeinschaftsgeist sich immer wieder gegen Ausgrenzung durchsetzen. Hip-Hop und Graffiti sind Widerstand. Statt die alten Geschichten vom Kampf zu erzählen, feiert dieses Buch die Schönheit, Erfindungsgabe und Kraft, die in unterprivilegierten Vierteln zuhause sind. Das Buch dokumentiert Morrisons Ausstellungen der letzten Jahre. Rahmensprengende Bilder verweben Erzählformen der Pop Art neu: eine explosive Hommage an die Schöpferkraft, die in marginalisierten Vierteln zu Hause ist.

Before there was Cher or Madonna, Iran had Googoosh.

A glorious fusion of history and art, A Vast Horizon tells the story of Pablo Picasso and his free-spirited friends, including Lee Miller and Man Ray, in the tumultuous years around the Second World War. 'Excellent and revealing . . . at the end we feel their loss as if they had been our friends' - Antony Penrose, Lee Miller Archives 'At once intimate and expansive . . . a fascinating portrait' - Clare Mulley, author of Agent Zo Late summer 1937. Europe is inching towards war. In the South of France a group of friends picnic in a secluded clearing. The women have peeled down their dresses to their waists. A couple kiss playfully while the others look on, laughing. The moment is captured in Lee Miller's now-iconic image. Some of the friends are well known, others less so: the dancer Ady Fidelin, the poet Paul Éluard and his wife Nusch, the Surrealists Man Ray and Roland Penrose. They are spending the summer with fellow artists Dora Maar, Eileen Agar and Pablo Picasso. In A Vast Horizon biographer Anna Thomasson tells the story of their creativity, friendships and pursuit of freedom set against the tense political backdrop of the 1930s, the Second World War and its aftermath. Tracing their lives through their photographs, artworks, poems and letters, from the heady weeks of creativity, sex and collaboration of that Mediterranean summer through the tumultuous years that followed, it is the story of rebellious lives and the redemptive power of art.
