Charlamagne Tha God, New York Times bestselling author of Black Privilege and always provocative cohost of Power 105.1s The Breakfast Club, reveals his blueprint for breaking free from your fears and anxieties.Being shook is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne, its his mission to overcome. While it may seem like hes ahead of the game, he is actually plagued by anxieties, such as the fear of losing his roots, the fear of being a bad dad, and the fear of being a terrible husband. In the national bestseller Shook One, Charlamagne chronicles his journey to beat those fears and shows a path that you too can take to overcome the anxieties and emotional blocks that may be holding you back. Ironically, Charlamagnes fear of failureof falling into the life of stagnation or crime that caught up so many of his friends and family in his hometown of Moncks Cornerhas been the fuel for his grit and hustle. However, even after achieving national prominence as a radio personality and working with icons such as Russell Simmons, Gucci Mane, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, Charlamagne still found himself paralyzed by anxiety and distrust. Here, in Shook One, he is working through these problemsmany of which he traces back to cultural PTSDwith help from mentors, friends, and therapy. Being anxious doesnt serve the same purpose anymore. Through therapy, hes figuring out how to get over the irrational fears that wont take him anywhere positive. Charlamange hopes Shook One can be a call to action: Getting help is your right. His second book cements the radio personalitys stance in making sure hes on the right side of history when it comes to societys growing focus on mental health, while helping remove the negative stigma (Billboard).
