The always private millionaire will share interviews with his family and friends, as well as explain and discuss his lyrics.
The book, called 'Decoded', will start at Mr. Beyonce Knowles' childhood, where he grew up in a rough area called Brooklyn's Marcy Projects. The book will also explore his dark years as a teen drug dealer, and moves into the brighter days as one of the world's most famous hip hop stars.
Jay-Z has been talking about the book, what it means to him and what to expect:
"It's too much. For the book, I was interviewed, people close to me were interviewed. So I was learning a lot of things I didn't know as a child. It's not anything I haven't said in the past, in songs. It's just more detailed. A song is three minutes long. A book doesn't have to rhyme, and it has no time limit, so you can say exactly how everything went."
The hip-hop star has never once even spoken openly about his wife Beyonce, so it's strange he will be going into such great detail about his private life! It sounds like it's going to be very interesting... will it be turned into a movie? I'd say so.
