When a musical act performs, the black audience goes crazy for all the stuff, the album cuts, everything. White audiences, they're nice and all, but they're not going to lose it until they get the hits. Comedy is the same thing.
Chris RockThere's always a moment in any stand-up show I do where people are booing. They kinda boo a premise. And then I bail myself out with a joke. But it's like trying to do movies where there's a dramatic undertone.
Chris RockKids always act up the most before they go to sleep. And when I see the Tea Party and all this stuff, it actually feels like racismโs almost over. Because this is the last - this is the act up before the sleep. Theyโre going crazy. Theyโre insane. You want to get rid of them - and the next thing you know, theyโre fucking knocked out. And thatโs whatโs going on in the country right now.
Chris RockI am just here to support the President of the United States. President of the United States is our boss, but he is also... you know, the President and the First Lady are kinda like the Mom and the Dad of the country. And when your Dad says something you listen, and when you don't it will usually bite you on the ass later on. So, I'm here to support the President.
Chris RockI hate when people go on TV and tell you how hard it is to do animation. No, no, no. UPS is hard work. Iโve done some animation and here's how easy it is. The easiest job in the world. I go in a booth and I go, whatโs the line? And the guy goes, itโs time to go to the store. And then I go, itโs time to go to the store. And then they gave me $1 million.
