You used to have to beg and be the busboy to do standup. I got on Community because people saw my videos on YouTube, which were free.

I call 'Community' the best day job in the world, because between takes, I get to write music. I get to write sketches. I get to write movies. It's the best job ever.

Black men struggle with masculinity so much. The idea that we must always be strong really presses us all down - it keeps us from growing.

I feel like... I don't have a wife, I don't have a kids, but... I see rappers and I'm like, I know that's fake. I know how much you make, this is all bullshit. But people are buying into it, and you shouldn't have that power. I'm legit trying to make honest moves so that all of us can grow. I want to make a show where my sister can work on and become a producer because she can't get in, no one's leting her. I want to make things where people can actually grow. A place where people can actually be honest.

We're afraid to move on, that's why there's so much nostalgia on the internet... 'cause we don't wanna look forward, that's scary.

Careers very rarely are a waste of time; jobs usually are.

I think the best music videos are the ones that have nothing to do with the song. Those are all my favorites.
