BOOK OVERVIEW:
Charlamagne Tha God, New York Times bestselling author of Black
Privilege and cohost of Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club, reveals his
blueprint for breaking free from your fears and anxiety to reach that
elusive next level of success.
Fear is holding you back. It’s time to turn the tables and channel your fears to actually fuel your success.
Being “shook” is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne, it’s his
mission to overcome. While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and
should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by
anxieties—fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a
worse husband; and ultimately, fear of failure. SHOOK ONE chronicles his
journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held
back from your potential.
SHOOK ONE details the ways anxiety has been a driving force in
Charlamagne’s life since childhood. For many years, he stressed over
what he thought were personal shortcomings: being unpopular in school,
potential rejection by women, being ugly, and worst of all, falling into
the life of stagnation or crime that caught up so many of his friends
and family in his hometown of Moncks Corner, South Carolina.
Even after achieving national prominence as a radio personality,
Charlamagne still found himself paralyzed by thoughts that he wouldn’t
be able to take his career to the next level. But now, in Shook One, he
is working through these problems with help from mentors, guests on his
show, and therapy. He knows therapy and showing weakness are anxiety
producing in the black community, but this is one of the reasons he
wants to own his truth—to clear a path for others in hopes that they
won’t feel shame while dealing openly with their mental health.
Charlamagne Tha God is cohost of the nationally syndicated hip-hop
iHeartRadio program The Breakfast Club and a television and media
personality. He is also a social media influencer; an executive producer
with his own production company, CThaGod World LLC; and cohost of the
popular podcast Brilliant Idiots. Born and raised in a small town in
South Carolina, Charlamagne quickly rose to become one of today’s most
unique and compelling media personalities. His point of view and
provocative celebrity interviews help drive the daily national
conversation about issues related to hip-hop, race, society, and
politics. He is the author of the New York Times bestseller Black
Privilege and Shook One.
