Publisher's Summary

Charlamagne Tha God - the self-proclaimed "Prince of Pissing People Off", cohost of Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club, and "hip-hop's Howard Stern" - shares his unlikely success story as well as how embracing one's truths is a fundamental key to success and happiness.

In his new book, Charlamagne Tha God presents his comic, often controversial, and always brutally honest insights on how living an authentic life is the quickest path to success. Beginning with his journey from the small town of Moncks Corner, South Carolina, to his headline grabbing interviews with celebrities like Justin Bieber, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, and Hillary Clinton, he shares how he turned his troubled early life around by owning his (many) mistakes and refusing to give up on his dreams, even after his controversial opinions got him fired from several on-air jobs. Combining his own story with bold advice and his signature commitment to honesty at all costs, Charlamagne hopes this book will give others the confidence to live their own truths.

Excellent! An Uplifting and Brilliant Anthology

... of what it is and means to be black and using that attribute as a badge of honour which in turn has the power to unleash your privilege. Finished in one day. Worth a listen. Appreciated by ALL in my household unexpectedly. Funny, with a few rewindable moments worth hear a few times.

Recommended For Young and Old.

I thought he was just a big mouth radio broadcaster that would embarrass others for entertainment on his radio show.
But after listening to his book, I inspire to be more true to my word and not ashamed to say what I need to, even if it hurts you. Not to put others down but to bring them up and help others realize their true potential.

made my favourite 5 list of books

loved it! just finished the audio for the 3rd time and each time a spark has ignited a different perspective. opportunities really are in every choice and thing we do and our perspective/s are the value of which we choose it to be. My take away on this read is obvious to me and is really actually a reminder that the measure of ones personal growth and development is in the character of that persons choices.
Honesty, integrity, vulnerability and the concept of being a student every day of your life, These characteristics are just some of the keys to fulfilment in my opinion and some of which charlarmagne showed in this great read.
Also the humor of this book and the fact that 'Larry' told it himself was that much more enjoyable.

Starts off really well...

I sought this book out after seeing Charlamagne on Real Time with Bill Maher. He was humorous, brave and insightful with Bill. His book starts off similarly, but he lost me two thirds in. Too much boring detail about the politics of the radio world, and too much bragging.

Great Book!

Great narrator, Charalamagne has given me that oomph to go out and get what I want in life.

This is the book you need when you're in the slumps and need to get a good kick in the ass to get going.


I appreciate charlamagne sharing his life story with me and opening up about his trials and tribulations which helped him become the man he is today.
