Kid Cudi‘s signed memoir, aptly named Cudi: The Memoir, is now available for preorder at Barnes & Noble.

Through this memoir, the Grammy-winning artist, actor and designer takes readers through a raw and real look at his life, from his upbringing in Cleveland to his rise to fame through tracks such as “Day ‘n’ Nite,” “Pursuit of Happiness” and “Mr. Rager.” The memoir is deeply personal to Cudi, so much so, in fact, that he even drew up the cover art.

The signed memoir retails for $30, while the hardcover goes for $27. You can also grab an eBook for $14.99 and an audio CD for $39.99. You can also preorder the memoir on Amazon sans the signature for $21. The Kindle version retails for $14.99, while the audio CD, like the Barnes & Noble edition, retails for $39.99. No matter where you buy it from, the audio CD is narrated by none other than Cudi himself.

A signed memoir writted by rapper Kid Cudi about his life.

“I cannot wait for u guys to read it. It’s filled with so much about my journey from my first memory to turning 40. Life lessons, the rager period of my life, and fighting my demons. All the way to the present, where happiness has found me,” Cudi wrote in a post to Instagram on May 11. “I hope this book does what my music does for u and gives u guidance and hope that u will make it through those difficult times.”

The memoir, according to Cudi, was written during a major point of self-discovery through depression, addiction, isolation and doubt. Beyond the cover art, you’ll get a chance to see more of Cudi’s colorful work throughout the book, as well as pictures from his childhood.
