A new book inspired by the Emmy-winning series The Shop will hit shelves this fall.
Insight Editions has shared, exclusively with PEOPLE, that the publisher will partner with The Shop, the brand within LeBron James and Maverick Carter’s The SpringHill Company, to publish The Shop: Where Culture Shapes Up this fall. The coffee table book is written by Ernest Wilkins.
The Shop, which was co-created by Paul Rivera and Randy Mims in 2018, and executive-produced by James and Carter, is a series that celebrates artists, athletes and advocates through conversation. The series, now streaming on YouTube, has since expanded into a brand that offers live experiences and products that embody the essence of a barbershop, per a statement shared with PEOPLE.

“The Shop isn’t just about people talking to each other. It’s deeper,” writes LeBron James in the book’s foreword. “It’s about the things that shape us, the battles we fight and the journey we’re all on … Over the years, we’ve peeled back the curtain, showing the world that athletes, artists and entertainers are more than sound bites.”
The 224-page book will allow readers to experience the Emmy-winning show in a new way. The Shop: Where Culture Shapes Up will include never-before-seen photos, behind-the-scenes stories and insights and reflections from the show’s hosts and guests.
The book will ultimately give an in-depth look at the “real, unfiltered, empowering” conversations the show has become known for, and will make the perfect gift for fans, sports enthusiasts and culture lovers.

“We’ve always viewed The Shop as more than a show. The Shop has become a community empowerment platform,” says Rivera. “This book features quotes and photography from some of the most iconic artists, athletes and entertainers in a real and unfiltered way you’ve come to expect inside The Shop.”
“We are honored to be selected by The Shop team to bring the authentic and genuine conversations from the series into the hands of readers,” says Insight Editions Publishing Director Mike Degler. “Our goal with this book was to inspire readers to think differently and use conversations from the global, influential figures featured in this book to impact their communities positively.”
