Atria/Black Privilege Publishing, 2026

The Grammy Award**–winning, legendary producer, global hype-master, and King of Crunk, Lil Jon, on the story of his life and his transformation into the high-volume showman behind a musical evolution.** For decades, the Grammy Award–winning artist Lil Jon has captivated audiences with the high-energy, chant-heavy, and bass-driven musical style that has become uniquely his own. However, before Lil Jon began his reign as “The King of Crunk,” he was just Jonathan Smith, a kid from the suburbs of Atlanta discovering his love for music and performance. Now, in I Only Shout So You Can Hear Me, Lil Jon peels back the layers of his larger-than-life persona for the first time, revealing the circumstances that led to the creation of his world-famous persona. He recounts his early exposure to music and his rapid rise in the Atlanta music scene, highlighting his pivotal role in shaping the city’s distinct hip-hop sound. Beyond the creation of massive hits like “Get Low” and “Yeah!,” Lil Jon opens up about the personal struggles that accompanied his fame, including creative burnout and the search for meaning beyond the stage. He explores his rediscovery of his passion for DJing and reinvents himself as a multifaceted artist and entrepreneur, only to face a heartbreak no parent should ever have to endure. With candid voice and thoughtfulness, I Only Shout So You Can Hear Me serves as a testament to the power of perseverance, creativity, and authenticity, delivering an inspiring message to aspiring artists, entrepreneurs, and anyone who dares to defy expectations, embrace change, and find success on their own terms.
