Everything I talk about in stand-up is my experiences as an American, as a father, as a husband, as a black man, as a human being.

Let's focus on the funny. ... That's what I'm focused on... This is the gift God gave me. That's what I want to touch in people.

Michael's the ultimate entertainer. After Michael Jackson, it's Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, and Bruce Lee.

I'm not really much into politics, because it's rarely discussed in my line of work.

You can't hold me to the same standard as the president or a school teacher. I'm just a comedian. My job is like Archie Bunker.

When I'm in the mood to listen to music, I do like to go to the SkyBar [ L.A.].

Comedy clubs are sacred ground. That's where anything goes.
