It’s been awhile since I’ve talked about an event at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) but people, you don’t want to miss this one.

On November 14, Tariq Trotter aka Black Thought, legendary MC of The Roots will be in conversation with the one and only Jon Stewart. Tariq will be discussing his upcoming book, The Upcycled Self: A Memoir on the Art of Becoming Who We Are. I read the description and will definitely be purchasing a copy. The book sounds extremely compelling and I’m sure the talk between Tariq and Jon will be engaging, thoughtful and very entertaining.

Tickets are on sale now. For more information and tickets, go to BAM's website.
