It's a lot easier to say you're a comic than a performance artist.

The moment that I realized my name was going to be said in the same sentence as children and sex, that's really intense. That's something I knew from that very moment, whatever happens past that point, something's out there in the air that is really bad.

In my experience I haven't met too many uptight black people. I'm sure they're out there. Like I'm some big authority and I've lived in the inner city and ghetto.

I'm the person with the final say on everything. I really love being in that position.

I just feel in a lot of ways black people are so much looser and cooler. Just as a culture, it's so much more real.

I'd love to work with Francis Ford Coppola. I met Coppola on an airplane.

I was looking for a last name that was a first name. Growing up, I knew a kid who was the most obnoxious kid I ever knew, and his last name was Herman.
