I grew up in the '80s in L.A., so Ice Cube and Magic Johnson are my heroes.

I believe in collaboration. I think that is the most entertaining and effective way to write for me, personally.

I'm too judgmental of other people putting themselves out there in any way, I guess.

The comedy really comes from how badly you want these characters to succeed and with a comedy that's often hard.

I'm a big hip hop fan.

I assume everything I do in life is gonna be a failure, and then if it turns up roses, then I'm psyched.

Comedies are doing well because I think people want to laugh and not think about everything for a little bit.
