The success of my comedy has been not being afraid to touch on subject matters or issues that everyone else is politically scared of.

I was a street performer for two years.

I always wanted to scuba dive. I used to scuba dive undercover like black Aquaman.

When you're offstage, that's the footprint. That's the man God's gonna judge.

Making people laugh is what I've been doing since I was like four or five years old. I still have a lust, I still have a passion. I don't care about how I look, I'm dedicated to the laughs.

America...Do not touch my TV, my DVD, my stereo, my dual-deck VCR. Do not touch my old school, my new school, my slow jams, my party jams, my happy rap, and you better not touch...My James Brown.

I want to speak directly to the audience, to say, 'I'm like you - I'm frustrated, I'm not an expert, I don't have a manual on parenting, I make mistakes, I'm selfish too.'
