Описание книги

Tebogo Thekisho, better known as ProVerb, first caught South Africa’s attention in 2005 with the release of his now classic debut hip-hop album, The Book of ProVerb. As a teenager he sought music wherever he could find it, and recorded his first demo at age 15, using his mom’s hi-fi. From there, he hustled his way into a multifaceted, award-winning media career in music, radio and TV, crafting a reputation on platforms such as Channel O, Jam Alley and YFM. For over a decade he has been a regular on TV screens as the host of Idols South Africa. In this memoir, Tebogo pays tribute to the people who’ve helped make him the person he is, especially his parents, his grandmother and his siblings. He shares the lessons he’s learnt through the different phases of his life with an infectious positivity, but also gets frank about the dark times he’s endured, including his painfully public divorce and attempted suicide. The Book of ProVerb is a memoir, a hustle manifesto, and a wholesome guide to life from one of South Africa’s brightest stars.

It’s a bit like cooking (but bear in mind that I don’t know how to cook). With some meals, the packet tells you: ‘Pierce the cover and microwave for two minutes.’ By the time you have washed your hands and taken out a plate, your meal is ready. But then there’s another meal where you have to, say, put your oxtail in a slow-cooker for eight hours and check it every thirty minutes. You spend an entire day on this, and by the evening you have a fantastic meal. Both can be delicious. It’s just that one took two minutes to cook and the other took eight hours. I am the oxtail dish – all my goals take longer to reach.

Back in 2010, Liezel left Idols SA in the middle of Season 6 for a work opportunity in Cape Town. I stayed on. I took the job very seriously and tried to deliver to the best of my abilities. I was so sick during the shooting of one episode that our team doctor had to put me on a drip before the show so that I’d have enough energy to carry on. During the ad breaks I had to lie down and drink some water while the doctor checked on me. Then, as soon as it was showtime and I heard the countdown in my earpiece, I got up and delivered, regardless of how I felt.
