OK I admit, I am a huge fanboy of Questlove and the Roots, and always have been, so I may be a little biased but I thought this audiobook was outstanding in every way. Hearing anecdotes and allegories relating to the creative live and endeavours of one of the most important people in music today is a lesson that will resonate deeply with anyone pursuing creative endeavours or seeking inspiration. This book covers the mechanics of creativity, examines them in detail but in illuminating ways that shows how they can be applied to your own life and projects. I gained a lot of new insights into the creative process and am already listening to it again. As a fan of the brilliant Questlove Supreme podcast on Pandora, I can assure you that the quality and detail is replicated in this production. Questlove's writing ability has certainly taken major steps since his memoir and I sincerely hope this is just the beginning. He is such an incredible resource for musical knowledge and pop culture and this is reflected throughout this work, I cannot recommend it enough, thank you Amir for this gem!

A fairly disappointing listen. Largely a rehash of other peoples stories. Questlove himself early in the book questions whether he himself is a creative person, musically maybe, as an author, not so much. There's really not many useable anecdotes on his own creative process, they range from picking a random word in a book and thinking about it for the day, to having lots of snare drums tuned to his favourite drummers tunings, and going to a museum.
Probably the most interesting part is his views on online user based reviews.
An interesting take on the audiobook format though.

Pretty uncreative for a book on creativity
