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.

I've got to show life as I see it.

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

If I don't offend somebody, then I'm probably not funny.

People walked out on Richard Pryor and he's the funniest man alive.

Stand-up is the foundation to my career. It's what I started out doing.

People bring camera phones into comedy shows and clubs and concerts, and sound bites never come out right.
