"Leon Neyfakh's book does the heady work of trying to understand what makes an artist, and whether one can live in the world as we have organized it. In the process he uses his incisive journalistic voice to tackle masculinity, friendship and identity with humor, grace and real depth." -- Lena Dunham "I've never met Leon Neyfakh, and I wouldn't recognize Juiceboxxx if he knocked on my front door and literally offered me a box of juice. But this is a great book about the intractable dissonance between loving art, wanting art, and being an actual artist. The story is small, but the ideas are massive." -- Chuck Klosterman, author of Fargo Rock City and Killing Yourself to Live " The Next Next Level is an intriguing story about the pursuit of an artistic lifestyle. Leon Neyfakh writes as a fan and friend about musician and performer Juiceboxxx and in doing so he honestly uncovers the personal sacrifice and uncertainty that most artists wrestle with daily. It's a new and worthwhile look at some big questions surrounding creativity." -- Craig Finn, The Hold Steady "In The Next Next Level , Leon Neyfakh traces the career of underground musician Juiceboxxx, and teases out the internal conflicts that dog everyone, not just obscure rappers: adult vs child, professional vs enthusiast, artist vs spectator, good vs bad. Neyfakh is empathic and precise, leaving you unsure of which side you'd pick when--as Neyfakh and Juiceboxxx both do--you have to choose." -- Sasha Frere-Jones "In his journalism, Leon Neyfakh tends to tackle the murk and miracle of deep thinking, trends, history, and the law. With Juiceboxxx, he's dared to confront a more ambiguous idea: the murk of the self. Neyfakh wanted to write a profile. He found, instead, a moving, invaluable, acutely sensitive case study of what drives some of us to remain who we inexorably are." -- Wesley Morris "Are artists different from other people, or do they just not know any better? The myth of the Romantic genius is alive and well, to judge by Leon Neyfakh's fascination with the underground musician Juiceboxxx, and as Neyfakh struggles to understand the myth, and its extreme forms two centuries after Byron, he proves as thoughtful as Friedrich Schiller and as funny as Geoff Dyer." -- Caleb Crain, author of Necessary Errors "In his eloquent look at a fascinating musician, Leon Neyfakh explores the difference between an artist and a fan and suggests that for those Americans under thirty there is no difference between high and low culture. An enthralling double portrait of the performer and the observer and a meditation on the passage from adolescent dreams to adult assessments." -- Edmund White, author of City Boy, "I've never met Leon Neyfakh, and I wouldn't recognize Juiceboxxx if he knocked on my front door and literally offered me a box of juice. But this is a great book about the intractable dissonance between loving art, wanting art, and being an actual artist.

In the process he uses his incisive journalistic voice to tackle masculinity, friendship and identity with humor, grace and real depth." -- Lena Dunham "I've never met Leon Neyfakh, and I wouldn't recognize Juiceboxxx if he knocked on my front door and literally offered me a box of juice.

Synopsis
Like Chuck Klosterman before him, acclaimed journalist Leon Neyfakh (Boston Globe, New Yorker) details an obsession and ends up with a story about the modern intersection of art and life. In the tale of a white rapper named Juiceboxxx, who has risen from church basements in Minneapolis to a more complicated national career, Neyfakh finds a conflicted figure. Tracing Juiceboxxx's ascent, Neyfakh asks: at a time when everyone listens to music for free, will Juiceboxxx ever really make it? And what would 'making it' even mean?, In the tradition of Carl Wilson's Let's Talk About Love , an unforgettable account of fame, fandom, and the problem of making art in the twenty-first century In his multi-hyphenate ambitions, the musician who calls himself Juiceboxxx couldn't be more modern--you might call him a punk rock-rapper-DJ-record executive-energy drink-magnate. Journalist Leon Neyfakh has been something more than a fan of Juiceboxxx's since he was a teenager, when he booked a show for the artist in a church basement in his hometown of Oak Park, Illinois. Juiceboxxx went on to the tireless, lonely, possibly hopeless pursuit of success on his own terms--no club was too dank, no futon too grubby, if it helped him get to the next, next level. And, for years, Neyfakh remained haunted from afar: was art really worth all the sacrifices? If it was, how did you know you'd made it? And what was the difference, anyway, between a person like Juiceboxxx--who devoted his life to being an artist--and a person like Neyfakh, who elected instead to pursue a stable career and a comfortable, middle-class existence? Much more than a brilliant portrait of a charismatic musician always on the verge of something big, The Next Next Level is a wholly contemporary story of art, obsession, fame, ambition, and friendship--as well as viral videos, rap-rock, and the particulars of life on the margins of culture.
