A major milestone! In this special segment, we celebrate ProVerb’s iconic life journey and the release of his second book,  To Health With It. From his evolution as an artist to his personal growth, we reflect on the moments that shaped him.

We’re diving into the phrases and sayings that echoed through our households growing up — the ones that shaped us, made us laugh, or left us confused.

We unpack a phrase many of us have heard — “You look thin.” Is it really a compliment, or is it more complicated than that?
