Monday, and then the dude let'shave a video.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I'm happy to get you up here, man.
I appreciate you.
I will just let people know.
I found this man over theweekend on social media and I
was just scrolling, scrolling,scrolling.
I think it was just on thescore page.
I was like, okay, comedy, chatto.
I saw a couple of the skits.
(01:16):
Was it T away?
You did the Academy.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
T away, t away Academy.
I did my research and then Isaw something very interesting.
He is a Virginia native.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yes, sir.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Homegrown talent from from the 757 areas now making
noise over in LA.
What, what?
So how did you get into thewhole creative space and how has
the transition been from movingfrom VA over to LA?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
So it's a long story, but I'm trying to make it show
as possible.
So I was in the VA until I waslike 18 years old and after that
I joined.
I joined the army, right andthen that's where, like like
2018, I started making thesecomedy videos and stuff like
that.
Like you know, I really likethis.
I started taking the seriouslittle bit more serious and then
(02:10):
I think about right now, 2020.
My contract was ending with thearmy.
I was like I really don't wantto read this, so I decided to,
like um, explore my options asan actor and stuff.
So that's what I did.
I found the T away school.
There was an LA and I gotfamily out here in LA and
basically everything just fellinto place after that.
(02:32):
So it came to act there, stilldoing the skits and stuff.
And then I got because I'm inthe T away.
That made me want to do onstand up comedy.
So that's how I got here rightnow.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
That's what's up, man , so you.
So how is the the LA circuit asfar as acting and comedy?
How is that?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
It's.
It's a lot of us out heretrying to do the exact same
thing I'm doing is like I wantto say it's hard, but depending
on who you are, it is kind ofchallenging.
Everybody want to be an actor.
There's a lot of people thatstill doing clubs, stand up
clubs, so it's a, it's achallenge right here.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Yeah, I can see.
La is where you're supposed tomake it right Like this is.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
That's what they say.
That's what they say.
It's a lot of people out herethat hasn't made it.
You got to have, like, you gotto have connections on
connections, just to getfeatured in a commercial or even
a small role in a big movie, mmhmm.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
So it was some of the actors that inspired you
growing up.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
That's the thing.
This was never a part of my ownmy repertoire growing up it's
happened, naturally.
It's like I never thought aboutbeing an actor growing up at
all.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
So what was in your repertoire growing up?
Was it sports, was it music?
Was it?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I would say it was sports.
Um, the first thing, well, Igrew up.
I was an artist for a while.
Like always used to draweverything and I was.
I wanted to play basketball,but I was too skinny, so I
instead I decided to run trackwhen I was in high school, so
that was really kind of like myfirst love.
But but yeah, I was.
(04:05):
I mean, I was always fun mywhole life.
That was nothing, but I wasnever late, right, I think
enough doing any comedy,anything like that.
I was doing it because that'sjust my personality, that's just
why I am a regular, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
It's crazy, say trap, because it seemed like you just
hit the pavement running whenyou got the LA.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, that's what's up, man.
How has the so you doing?
All three, how has that beentreating like?
I know I do stand up myself.
How's stand up like what?
What inspired you for?
Stand up?
Because that's a.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Well, that's.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Two different lanes.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yeah, see, stand up.
That's a different story.
Cuz Roaring up.
I did love what the stand uplike my favorite commiss to
watch like Bernie Mac, I Grew upon him.
I like watching some of the oldAndy Murphy stand up skits.
Um, who else on ASJ?
I watched a lot of on ASJ andDeath comedy jam.
No, I just love watching allthose just seeing these people
(05:07):
Just doing stand up, making acrowd laughing, everything just
by telling stories.
I was always interested in thatbut I never thought about doing
it myself, which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
I don't think we all thought about doing.
Stand up a thing one day.
We just like you know what.
Either I'm gonna take a classor do a overnight.
We're gonna see what this yeah,we're gonna see what this lands
.
So, yeah, I understand.
And you, you, you write too.
So like are you more like a?
You know, we had the bigstraight recently with yeah so I
(05:38):
wasn't a part of it.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I'm a.
I'm a.
I'm at UCLA right now takingclasses to become a screenwriter
.
So only thing I've written sofar I'm on my way of writing a
spec script for a feature filmand and Only other thing I wrote
was like a couple of shorts.
So other than that I haven'treally wrote anything major yet.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Many shorts is major because you see what shorts and
reels and skis is doing forcountry Wayne and Drew's.
Yeah, yeah, I might have todisagree with the Little part on
that one brown man In terms ofme, okay.
Okay they are writing for TylerPerry presents mission
(06:22):
impossible.
You know, you know Maxine'sbaby, who man I like.
As far as acting goes, thoughlike cuz, I know is different
variations of acting got methodacting, which is what Jared Leto
(06:46):
does.
That I believe.
What?
What is your Going for roles asfar as being active?
What's your thesis behind thatI was?
What's your synopsis behindgoing behind these acting roles?
Do you research them?
Is there like a roles that youwon't play or you want your?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
time cast them.
Right now.
I do have a manager.
We're working on like gettingme in like anything possible
right now, because, like thestrike just finished, so reach
on.
I was like, give me anythingyou can I'll do.
But on the way, for me as anactor, the way I like to act is
kind of like it's called themyosin of technique.
That's when you connect withyour senior part in everything.
(07:23):
But you know, since kovieeverything's been on self-tape.
So I can't, I have nobody toact with, so it's basically like
whom I'm gonna act with.
So then I have to really liketry to get into character,
whatever that catch on playingis.
And and one role I did tell mymanager I would never want to
play is a slave.
I Never, I've never, want toplay asleep.
(07:44):
It don't matter where I'm at inmy career.
I'm never, I've never, wantedto play a slave, because we just
like I'll talk about that weall want to get all like you
know, political and not likethat it's ain't, it's ain't the
time for.
But I never play asleep, that'sit.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Man, you, you're not lying about that.
I don't know what thefascination with Cinema and
slavery is.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
No need for movies.
That's how I feel.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Exactly, and I wrote a joke about how do you audition
for a slavery movie?
This is for me speaking, I like.
How do you Get into the mindsetto be a slave Like you know
what?
I'm gonna kill this role.
If you're extra in a slavemovie, you're.
Your title in the movie isslave number one or slave number
(08:33):
two is a shit.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yeah, I would hate to see that in my, in my credits
for real, but no, I just I'venever done it oh.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
If you can envision yourself playing any role,
though, or playing along likeopposite of another actor, who
would that act to be and why?
Speaker 2 (08:51):
That's.
That's tough on right now cuzmy favorite actress, chadwick
Boseman you know we're not withhim anymore, so but he's not
with us anymore but, um, I wouldprobably have to say on maybe
Samuel Jackson.
I play like play opposite ofhim some type of way, because I
love his acting like from whenhe first started you know that
(09:14):
man was taking any role he couldwhen he was younger and now
look where he at now.
So I love to play opposite ofhim.
Somebody else are probably sayis on, like you stand field.
Yeah, I probably play oppositeof him.
And, um, for a role I reallywant to play because something
about me, I love bio pics andthat's the reason why I chaired.
(09:35):
Boseman is my favorite actorbecause he been like he been in
42 Marshall, he did the JamesBrown story and like I love all
that.
I love all that bio pic stuffand the temptations is my
favorite movie, and so I Willsay a role that I would love to
do, and because people said looklike him and I like have
mannerism like him, I would loveto do Eddie Murphy bio pic If
(09:57):
they would ever make that.
That's, that's, that's my go-torole.
I gotta do something like that.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I can see that.
I can see that that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Shit.
We still waiting on the rich ofpride.
Oh my feet.
We Nick Cannon, marlin Williams, mike Alps of Auburn room with
the plan man.
We have yet to get it.
So I don't know what's going on.
That's crazy, say Sam Jackson,because I think a lot of people
don't respect the genius behindSam Sam Jack.
Sam Jackson will put out StarWars and then another woman call
(10:39):
your motherfucker in the sameBecause you know, you know he
played Nick Fury in all theMarvel movies Great.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
And what a lot of people don't know is like Nick
Fury was originally a white man.
I think about David Hasselhoffin the earlier on, in the early
one.
So the fact that Samuel Jacksonis taking over his role as a
black person just changed thewhole dynamic of that.
Like nobody really nobodyreally talking about that for
real.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Nobody talking about it.
Well, I mean, just watch somewith Sam Jackson I can't
pronounce it where he was haddementia.
He was trying to solve hisnephew's murder.
I had just discovered it onApple TV Polygamy, gray
something like, yeah, but I'm agreat.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I have seen that a while back.
That's a good one, right?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
That's like you know another actor.
I think people don't put enoughrespect on us.
Two of them forest Whitaker andJeffrey right.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Yeah, for real and Don Cheeto.
Don't you?
Yeah, don't you.
He's like he need all theflowers he can get right now,
because he is up there for real.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
If you haven't never seen anything with Jeff right,
you want see some region watch.
Oh gee, he was really out there.
And Pelican big playingbasketball yeah, he did
murderers and felons like he wasreally out there acting and
cussing them out and theyrespect him so much he played
basket out.
If you look at Don Cheeto hotelRwanda, he did one of my
(12:09):
favorite comedians andpersonalities of P D Green.
He's been all across.
And you look at, uh, likeactresses you have Viola Davis,
yeah, I'm even throw QueenLatifah there.
Who am I being?
Is?
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, she's different .
Like she don't get enoughcredit, as is to eat for a for
real.
Like she did so many greatthings for like her own, her
like role of playing anycharacters.
Like very, very broad, she doanything, which a lot of people
don't really see.
That, though, oh.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
They don't when you got.
She's done Movies, so shedidn't.
Comedy drama, sapphire.
She's done romance.
She's done television shows,talk shows, rap music, hip-hop
music.
She's sung opera for a littlebit.
She's done musicals.
I'm like, okay, all right, yeah, I mean we gotta give her
flowers.
Oh, the same way, you know it'san amazing thing Is I know we
(13:10):
talked about the type of moviesthat you wouldn't be in, like
that one movies, like a slaverymovie would never want to do,
but it's a genre of a movie thatyou wouldn't do.
Is it like that you would?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I don't think there is like any drama that wouldn't
do, because I like comedy, Icould play comedy, I could do
drama, I like romance, so Idon't think there's any drama
that wouldn't be willing to do.
I love to do horror too, I mean, why not so?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yeah, I think.
I think that's a market thatJordan Pilla has tapped in for
black people is he's actuallyhe's done this thing and being a
comedian, a writer, actor, doso, he's doing it.
I'm gonna be honest with you.
I think that might be your, theJordan P Hill.
(14:06):
Thank you going down thatpattern, brother.
Yeah, so have you ever donecomedy, nva, or have you just
done strictly in LA?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah, just been all in LA.
I haven't been, I haven't gotto being to the jeans since I've
been here.
I've been like two years.
Now I'm planning on going back.
I do have a couple peoplethat's like Really telling me
that they have, if I ever comeout, the VA is their home book a
show for me.
I'm like I appreciate that.
I'm really excited.
But you know, audiences toughout there, you know.
So I gotta, I gotta get myjokes ready, you know.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Virginia's weird.
I bet it's weird.
He's fucking weird, bro, likethey want you to be clean but
dirty.
Yeah, they want you to besexual but not sexual it's like
you gotta do yeah.
(15:03):
Have you ever experienced yourfirst bombing on the stage?
Yet, like your first bad set,we was like you know what.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Maybe this shit ain't it I mean I would call it a
bomb, but it was a set idea, itwas for for an organization I
mean I call black man Bill andMm-hmm, they had this.
They had this like littlefundraiser thing for Juneteenth.
It was day before Juneteenthand so I went out there.
This is like an outside stage.
You got people everywhere.
(15:30):
So Tell me why I have one partof the one part of the outside
laughing, and then the otherpart wasn't laughing at all, and
so it's like it was soconfusing, right.
So people that was sitting infront of me won't, none of them
laughing, but the people to likemy right side, all of them was
cracking up, so I will call it abomb.
At the same time, nobody inthat area was last, so I started
(15:55):
talking to the people over here.
I'm like how y'all doing this,though he says y'all don't want
to laugh.
So I started talking to them,you know, but I would probably
categorize that I wouldn't sayit's a bomb.
At the same time.
It is because nobody was left,but I still had like a few folks
left.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yeah, that's the weird part.
Like you may get the left siderolling, the right side is like
yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Tell us something funny.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
And then the skits that you do, right.
How do you come up with theideas for the skits and Like
what?
What goes behind these kids asfar as the production of writing
, the execution?
And have you ever got madbecause you're used to a certain
amount of views, likes andshares.
You'd never gotten that sameview like a share.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah.
So All my ideas come throughlife experiences.
I'm gonna say that right now,like almost every video you see,
that happened to me in a reallife some type of way.
And so my first I would say myfirst viral video that like,
yeah, that I really Sort of getmore attraction was I've been in
a video with a old dude wenthow old dudes walk up to you say
(17:06):
random stuff, and I just didthat just for fun.
That happened to me basically Iwork this job and it's dude I
work with.
He just came up to me, saidsomething, I don't know what he
said, left and then walked away.
I'm like, what was that?
Like, you know, I gotta make avideo out of this.
And so me just playing aroundlike I don't make a video, it
(17:27):
got so much trash.
I'm like, okay, that's nice.
And then it was other videos Idid.
That I knew was that I knewthat was funny.
Then again, no traction at all.
Nobody like really shared,nobody liked it, nothing like
that like okay, so I See it, Igot a.
People want one thing I noticedthat my, all my fans, they like
, they like on short videos,like if it's more than no, more
(17:48):
than 10 seconds they probablywon't watch, because you know
people tension span because thetick tock is very short.
Now They'll watch a video andthen skip right to the next one.
Nobody trying to sit therewatch a full video all day,
unless you like really somebodyyou know.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I think I get them in the first 30 seconds.
Yeah, yeah, like shit.
I think Vine did that.
Like that, Six second clips.
I think that's what messed that?
I got my cut.
I was you that this will fuckthis up.
It was fine.
Six seconds in the Instagram.
Let you start doing videos andnow it's either a real or short.
(18:24):
You can't even post the regularpost.
Now they make you do a real.
So yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, I don't know, try to get people to come in and
view the stuff and leave.
That's it.
They just want to use the likes.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Never had motherfucking Kevin hard up on
this shit, so I was playing,yeah, I think.
Oh, yeah, we're going to watchthis shit.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah, I was not a thing.
I mean that's, that's it.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Yeah, man, realism is what you said as far as your
skits, is that the same thingwith your company?
Like realism, do you tap intothe real, the stuff that
happened to you, the relatablestuff that's happened to you.
That may have somebody else inthe crowd to.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, most of my jokes are kind of real.
Yeah, most of my jokes are real.
But you know, as a comedianit's some things that I could
say the truth but it's not funny.
So I got to be in the just alittle bit.
You know what I'm saying, justa little bit.
I'm going to say it right now.
So it's one joke that I dooften where I talk about how my
grandma sent me to a blackchurch, a black Christian church
(19:24):
but she's a Muslim, right, andit gets.
It gets the crowd every time.
I'm wondering, like I said thatto myself, why she sent me to a
Christian church when the wholetime she's a Muslim.
But I was just joking Until Ihad a recent conversation with
my grandma and she was talkingabout how she was thankful for,
like, still living, because youknow she's older now she's
(19:46):
thankful for still living.
She prays the Almighty God alot.
I'm like, oh snap, so my jokesreally are true, because this
whole time I didn't think shewas a Muslim for real.
So I'm like, ok, so that's thejoke.
I could say that's really thetruth, but it is another is
another joke.
That is not the truth at all.
This is on.
It's a joke where I talk aboutbeing in the army and I was
(20:10):
talking about how you know itwas tough for me because you
know I'm skinny and all, so Ican have these heavy bags and I
can never keep up.
That's not true at all.
I just I just say that becauseyou know it's a funny joke, but
I didn't really like it in thearmy.
I was like I'm not, I'm on thebrad, but you know I was good.
Let's just say that I was good.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Oh man, it's nothing, as long as it's not like too
much fat on to it.
It's like it's not believable.
It's believable because you'rea friend.
Like I got a joke where I saidmy mom booked me at a black
church and the church they wascoming up to me and give me
words of encouragement.
I think my mom didn't book meat a black church.
She booked.
(20:49):
I didn't get booked at all.
I was in a black church crowdat a bar.
And that's when they was givingme the words of encouragement.
So that's when I was like, ohshit, you know, and I bomb so
bad and that's how I startedthis podcast is because of that
bomb.
So that bomb made no idea.
Man, is there any celebritiesthat you've worked with or ever
(21:14):
got like a star struck withsince she been in LA?
Is there?
Have you ever seen any?
Open mic scenes.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I've seen a couple of celebrities.
They're not like real bigcelebrities but they're you know
they're.
They're unknown.
So it's one guy, one of mypromoters, fargis Mason.
I've seen him on Def Comedy Jamand then now I'm like, I'm like
I'm on good terms with him, sohe's I'm going to say I'm a star

(21:44):
I don't really get star struckoften, but who else have I

have seen.
It was Thundercat my.

I didn't start listening tothat till I was probably like in
middle school, so growing up onthis like people from the 90s

and she was born in the 70s andnow you know, I mean she listed
(24:03):
to like early hip-hop and youknow, thanks to the cabinet,
came out in the 80s.
So it took me a while to Tellme why don't like know my own,
my own generational music.
So, yeah, my opinion is like sodiverse so Anytime you get in
my car, just you don't know whatyou're gonna listen to next.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
It's uh, likewise I've been.
You talk about thunder cat.
I listen to gregor reporter andsting and yeah, like it's, it's
, it went.
I think some older gettingolder.
I don't know what's going on.
But uh, yeah, that's it.
You don't know what you'regonna get man, you might get
money back, get one minute andhe might get hauling oats.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, I got it.
Thank you, the scraps you put.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Thank you the scraps.
My personality is like allright.
Well, man, I could trap withyou the next Singing along.
You're gonna look at me likewhat the hell you playing?
I don't know man.
This is, this is my car.
You know it's my playlist.
So yeah, I'll get you, man,what's the best advice that
(25:15):
you've gotten since you'vegotten to this creative space?
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Hmm, I'll say the best advice.
It happened when I was atschool.
It was, um, I'm not I'm notgonna say word from word, but
it's something in the area thebest advice I ever got was just
to have fun, does it?
It's?
It's the most simple advice Iever heard, because it's most
(25:39):
people you'd like if you were anew actor or something like that
.
They got there trying to bevery specific and they try to
like, really get that role.
But if, if like the director orcast not ready to see that you
have fun with the role, thenyou'll, then they'll remember
you because I got.
It was a couple times where Ihave been told that they just
said I was having fun justbecause of my personality.
Even if it's like I'm crying orI'm being like I'm I'm being
(26:03):
shot or something like that, ifit's a drama role, I was still
having fun with it.
I wasn't like being too, youknow, too serious, you know, so
just be loose.
So that's not like the bestadvice I ever got.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
The best advice I got is when you get into this, you
get this is a passion project.
Um, and Bernie Mac I add Berniemax thing on when he said fame
comes before money All right, soif you're looking to make money
in any of this right now whileyou're starting, it's not gonna
(26:37):
happen, it'll come.
The fame gonna come first, therecognition.
So people might say, damn,that's taz, I saw his skit.
That's a boy who grandma was amuslim and he went to a
christian church.
That's taz who saw ramennoodles and noodle hair on the
street to work.
And this was gonna happen firstand then the money was stopped
(26:59):
coming in.
But If you, I think if you uh,have fun that's one of the
things I always tell anybodythat's getting.
I just do comedy, um, but ifanybody's getting to anything,
it was one have fun like this isthis isn't Some shit that you
got to go on there and go beserious or time.
If you have fun and project itto your audience, like you doing
(27:20):
your skits, like you've done inyour movies and how you doing
your writing and a doing yourstand-up, your audience, well, I
should be like damn he, like hehaving a good ass time.
So then they'll have a goodtime.
So it just, it's the energy Ihaving fun.
So, yeah, you're a good dude,bro.
I hope if you come to va, uh,or if I go to la, you know we'll
(27:45):

He is an actor, he's a creative, he's a comedian, he's a writer
.
This man has several hats intothis entertainment industry.
(00:23):
He is a porcimus native move toLA and is taking over right now

That's the right in theproduction.
If you have not seen this page,I'm going to tell you right now

What's going on, baby?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Go home with your mind.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Hey shit, how you feeling man?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I'm feeling good right now.
Monday, and then the dude let'shave a video.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I'm happy to get you up here, man.
I appreciate you.
I will just let people know.
I found this man over theweekend on social media and I
was just scrolling, scrolling,scrolling.
I think it was just on thescore page.
I was like, okay, comedy, chatto.
I saw a couple of the skits.
(01:16):
Was it T away?
You did the Academy.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
T away, t away Academy.
I did my research and then Isaw something very interesting.
He is a Virginia native.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yes, sir.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Homegrown talent from from the 757 areas now making
noise over in LA.
What, what?
So how did you get into thewhole creative space and how has
the transition been from movingfrom VA over to LA?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
So it's a long story, but I'm trying to make it show
as possible.
So I was in the VA until I waslike 18 years old and after that
I joined.
I joined the army, right andthen that's where, like like
2018, I started making thesecomedy videos and stuff like
that.
Like you know, I really likethis.
I started taking the seriouslittle bit more serious and then
(02:10):
I think about right now, 2020.
My contract was ending with thearmy.
I was like I really don't wantto read this, so I decided to,
like um, explore my options asan actor and stuff.
So that's what I did.
I found the T away school.
There was an LA and I gotfamily out here in LA and
basically everything just fellinto place after that.
(02:32):
So it came to act there, stilldoing the skits and stuff.
And then I got because I'm inthe T away.
That made me want to do onstand up comedy.
So that's how I got here rightnow.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
That's what's up, man , so you.
So how is the the LA circuit asfar as acting and comedy?
How is that?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
It's.
It's a lot of us out heretrying to do the exact same
thing I'm doing is like I wantto say it's hard, but depending
on who you are, it is kind ofchallenging.
Everybody want to be an actor.
There's a lot of people thatstill doing clubs, stand up
clubs, so it's a, it's achallenge right here.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Yeah, I can see.
La is where you're supposed tomake it right Like this is.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
That's what they say.
That's what they say.
It's a lot of people out herethat hasn't made it.
You got to have, like, you gotto have connections on
connections, just to getfeatured in a commercial or even
a small role in a big movie, mmhmm.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
So it was some of the actors that inspired you
growing up.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
That's the thing.
This was never a part of my ownmy repertoire growing up it's
happened, naturally.
It's like I never thought aboutbeing an actor growing up at
all.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
So what was in your repertoire growing up?
Was it sports, was it music?
Was it?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I would say it was sports.
Um, the first thing, well, Igrew up.
I was an artist for a while.
Like always used to draweverything and I was.
I wanted to play basketball,but I was too skinny, so I
instead I decided to run trackwhen I was in high school, so
that was really kind of like myfirst love.
But but yeah, I was.
(04:05):
I mean, I was always fun mywhole life.
That was nothing, but I wasnever late, right, I think
enough doing any comedy,anything like that.
I was doing it because that'sjust my personality, that's just
why I am a regular, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
It's crazy, say trap, because it seemed like you just
hit the pavement running whenyou got the LA.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, that's what's up, man.
How has the so you doing?
All three, how has that beentreating like?
I know I do stand up myself.
How's stand up like what?
What inspired you for?
Stand up?
Because that's a.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Well, that's.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Two different lanes.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yeah, see, stand up.
That's a different story.
Cuz Roaring up.
I did love what the stand uplike my favorite commiss to
watch like Bernie Mac, I Grew upon him.
I like watching some of the oldAndy Murphy stand up skits.
Um, who else on ASJ?
I watched a lot of on ASJ andDeath comedy jam.
No, I just love watching allthose just seeing these people
(05:07):
Just doing stand up, making acrowd laughing, everything just
by telling stories.
I was always interested in thatbut I never thought about doing
it myself, which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
I don't think we all thought about doing.
Stand up a thing one day.
We just like you know what.
Either I'm gonna take a classor do a overnight.
We're gonna see what this yeah,we're gonna see what this lands
.
So, yeah, I understand.
And you, you, you write too.
So like are you more like a?
You know, we had the bigstraight recently with yeah so I
(05:38):
wasn't a part of it.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I'm a.
I'm a.
I'm at UCLA right now takingclasses to become a screenwriter
.
So only thing I've written sofar I'm on my way of writing a
spec script for a feature filmand and Only other thing I wrote
was like a couple of shorts.
So other than that I haven'treally wrote anything major yet.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Many shorts is major because you see what shorts and
reels and skis is doing forcountry Wayne and Drew's.
Yeah, yeah, I might have todisagree with the Little part on
that one brown man In terms ofme, okay.
Okay they are writing for TylerPerry presents mission
(06:22):
impossible.
You know, you know Maxine'sbaby, who man I like.
As far as acting goes, thoughlike cuz, I know is different
variations of acting got methodacting, which is what Jared Leto
(06:46):
does.
That I believe.
What?
What is your Going for roles asfar as being active?
What's your thesis behind thatI was?
What's your synopsis behindgoing behind these acting roles?
Do you research them?
Is there like a roles that youwon't play or you want your?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
time cast them.
Right now.
I do have a manager.
We're working on like gettingme in like anything possible
right now, because, like thestrike just finished, so reach
on.
I was like, give me anythingyou can I'll do.
But on the way, for me as anactor, the way I like to act is
kind of like it's called themyosin of technique.
That's when you connect withyour senior part in everything.
(07:23):
But you know, since kovieeverything's been on self-tape.
So I can't, I have nobody toact with, so it's basically like
whom I'm gonna act with.
So then I have to really liketry to get into character,
whatever that catch on playingis.
And and one role I did tell mymanager I would never want to
play is a slave.
I Never, I've never, want toplay asleep.
(07:44):
It don't matter where I'm at inmy career.
I'm never, I've never, wantedto play a slave, because we just
like I'll talk about that weall want to get all like you
know, political and not likethat it's ain't, it's ain't the
time for.
But I never play asleep, that'sit.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Man, you, you're not lying about that.
I don't know what thefascination with Cinema and
slavery is.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
No need for movies.
That's how I feel.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Exactly, and I wrote a joke about how do you audition
for a slavery movie?
This is for me speaking, I like.
How do you Get into the mindsetto be a slave Like you know
what?
I'm gonna kill this role.
If you're extra in a slavemovie, you're.
Your title in the movie isslave number one or slave number
(08:33):
two is a shit.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yeah, I would hate to see that in my, in my credits
for real, but no, I just I'venever done it oh.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
If you can envision yourself playing any role,
though, or playing along likeopposite of another actor, who
would that act to be and why?
Speaker 2 (08:51):
That's.
That's tough on right now cuzmy favorite actress, chadwick
Boseman you know we're not withhim anymore, so but he's not
with us anymore but, um, I wouldprobably have to say on maybe
Samuel Jackson.
I play like play opposite ofhim some type of way, because I
love his acting like from whenhe first started you know that
(09:14):
man was taking any role he couldwhen he was younger and now
look where he at now.
So I love to play opposite ofhim.
Somebody else are probably sayis on, like you stand field.
Yeah, I probably play oppositeof him.
And, um, for a role I reallywant to play because something
about me, I love bio pics andthat's the reason why I chaired.
(09:35):
Boseman is my favorite actorbecause he been like he been in
42 Marshall, he did the JamesBrown story and like I love all
that.
I love all that bio pic stuffand the temptations is my
favorite movie, and so I Willsay a role that I would love to
do, and because people said looklike him and I like have
mannerism like him, I would loveto do Eddie Murphy bio pic If
(09:57):
they would ever make that.
That's, that's, that's my go-torole.
I gotta do something like that.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I can see that.
I can see that that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Shit.
We still waiting on the rich ofpride.
Oh my feet.
We Nick Cannon, marlin Williams, mike Alps of Auburn room with
the plan man.
We have yet to get it.
So I don't know what's going on.
That's crazy, say Sam Jackson,because I think a lot of people
don't respect the genius behindSam Sam Jack.
Sam Jackson will put out StarWars and then another woman call
(10:39):
your motherfucker in the sameBecause you know, you know he
played Nick Fury in all theMarvel movies Great.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
And what a lot of people don't know is like Nick
Fury was originally a white man.
I think about David Hasselhoffin the earlier on, in the early
one.
So the fact that Samuel Jacksonis taking over his role as a
black person just changed thewhole dynamic of that.
Like nobody really nobodyreally talking about that for
real.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Nobody talking about it.
Well, I mean, just watch somewith Sam Jackson I can't
pronounce it where he was haddementia.
He was trying to solve hisnephew's murder.
I had just discovered it onApple TV Polygamy, gray
something like, yeah, but I'm agreat.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I have seen that a while back.
That's a good one, right?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
That's like you know another actor.
I think people don't put enoughrespect on us.
Two of them forest Whitaker andJeffrey right.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Yeah, for real and Don Cheeto.
Don't you?
Yeah, don't you.
He's like he need all theflowers he can get right now,
because he is up there for real.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
If you haven't never seen anything with Jeff right,
you want see some region watch.
Oh gee, he was really out there.
And Pelican big playingbasketball yeah, he did
murderers and felons like he wasreally out there acting and
cussing them out and theyrespect him so much he played
basket out.
If you look at Don Cheeto hotelRwanda, he did one of my
(12:09):
favorite comedians andpersonalities of P D Green.
He's been all across.
And you look at, uh, likeactresses you have Viola Davis,
yeah, I'm even throw QueenLatifah there.
Who am I being?
Is?
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, she's different .
Like she don't get enoughcredit, as is to eat for a for
real.
Like she did so many greatthings for like her own, her
like role of playing anycharacters.
Like very, very broad, she doanything, which a lot of people
don't really see.
That, though, oh.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
They don't when you got.
She's done Movies, so shedidn't.
Comedy drama, sapphire.
She's done romance.
She's done television shows,talk shows, rap music, hip-hop
music.
She's sung opera for a littlebit.
She's done musicals.
I'm like, okay, all right, yeah, I mean we gotta give her
flowers.
Oh, the same way, you know it'san amazing thing Is I know we
(13:10):
talked about the type of moviesthat you wouldn't be in, like
that one movies, like a slaverymovie would never want to do,
but it's a genre of a movie thatyou wouldn't do.
Is it like that you would?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I don't think there is like any drama that wouldn't
do, because I like comedy, Icould play comedy, I could do
drama, I like romance, so Idon't think there's any drama
that wouldn't be willing to do.
I love to do horror too, I mean, why not so?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yeah, I think.
I think that's a market thatJordan Pilla has tapped in for
black people is he's actuallyhe's done this thing and being a
comedian, a writer, actor, doso, he's doing it.
I'm gonna be honest with you.
I think that might be your, theJordan P Hill.
(14:06):
Thank you going down thatpattern, brother.
Yeah, so have you ever donecomedy, nva, or have you just
done strictly in LA?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah, just been all in LA.
I haven't been, I haven't gotto being to the jeans since I've
been here.
I've been like two years.
Now I'm planning on going back.
I do have a couple peoplethat's like Really telling me
that they have, if I ever comeout, the VA is their home book a
show for me.
I'm like I appreciate that.
I'm really excited.
But you know, audiences toughout there, you know.
So I gotta, I gotta get myjokes ready, you know.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Virginia's weird.
I bet it's weird.
He's fucking weird, bro, likethey want you to be clean but
dirty.
Yeah, they want you to besexual but not sexual it's like
you gotta do yeah.
(15:03):
Have you ever experienced yourfirst bombing on the stage?
Yet, like your first bad set,we was like you know what.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Maybe this shit ain't it I mean I would call it a
bomb, but it was a set idea, itwas for for an organization I
mean I call black man Bill andMm-hmm, they had this.
They had this like littlefundraiser thing for Juneteenth.
It was day before Juneteenthand so I went out there.
This is like an outside stage.
You got people everywhere.
(15:30):
So Tell me why I have one partof the one part of the outside
laughing, and then the otherpart wasn't laughing at all, and
so it's like it was soconfusing, right.
So people that was sitting infront of me won't, none of them
laughing, but the people to likemy right side, all of them was
cracking up, so I will call it abomb.
At the same time, nobody inthat area was last, so I started
(15:55):
talking to the people over here.
I'm like how y'all doing this,though he says y'all don't want
to laugh.
So I started talking to them,you know, but I would probably
categorize that I wouldn't sayit's a bomb.
At the same time.
It is because nobody was left,but I still had like a few folks
left.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yeah, that's the weird part.
Like you may get the left siderolling, the right side is like
yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Tell us something funny.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
And then the skits that you do, right.
How do you come up with theideas for the skits and Like
what?
What goes behind these kids asfar as the production of writing
, the execution?
And have you ever got madbecause you're used to a certain
amount of views, likes andshares.
You'd never gotten that sameview like a share.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah.
So All my ideas come throughlife experiences.
I'm gonna say that right now,like almost every video you see,
that happened to me in a reallife some type of way.
And so my first I would say myfirst viral video that like,
yeah, that I really Sort of getmore attraction was I've been in
a video with a old dude wenthow old dudes walk up to you say
(17:06):
random stuff, and I just didthat just for fun.
That happened to me basically Iwork this job and it's dude I
work with.
He just came up to me, saidsomething, I don't know what he
said, left and then walked away.
I'm like, what was that?
Like, you know, I gotta make avideo out of this.
And so me just playing aroundlike I don't make a video, it
(17:27):
got so much trash.
I'm like, okay, that's nice.
And then it was other videos Idid.
That I knew was that I knewthat was funny.
Then again, no traction at all.
Nobody like really shared,nobody liked it, nothing like
that like okay, so I See it, Igot a.
People want one thing I noticedthat my, all my fans, they like
, they like on short videos,like if it's more than no, more
(17:48):
than 10 seconds they probablywon't watch, because you know
people tension span because thetick tock is very short.
Now They'll watch a video andthen skip right to the next one.
Nobody trying to sit therewatch a full video all day,
unless you like really somebodyyou know.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I think I get them in the first 30 seconds.
Yeah, yeah, like shit.
I think Vine did that.
Like that, Six second clips.
I think that's what messed that?
I got my cut.
I was you that this will fuckthis up.
It was fine.
Six seconds in the Instagram.
Let you start doing videos andnow it's either a real or short.
(18:24):
You can't even post the regularpost.
Now they make you do a real.
So yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, I don't know, try to get people to come in and
view the stuff and leave.
That's it.
They just want to use the likes.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Never had motherfucking Kevin hard up on
this shit, so I was playing,yeah, I think.
Oh, yeah, we're going to watchthis shit.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Yeah, I was not a thing.
I mean that's, that's it.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Yeah, man, realism is what you said as far as your
skits, is that the same thingwith your company?
Like realism, do you tap intothe real, the stuff that
happened to you, the relatablestuff that's happened to you.
That may have somebody else inthe crowd to.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, most of my jokes are kind of real.
Yeah, most of my jokes are real.
But you know, as a comedianit's some things that I could
say the truth but it's not funny.
So I got to be in the just alittle bit.
You know what I'm saying, justa little bit.
I'm going to say it right now.
So it's one joke that I dooften where I talk about how my
grandma sent me to a blackchurch, a black Christian church
(19:24):
but she's a Muslim, right, andit gets.
It gets the crowd every time.
I'm wondering, like I said thatto myself, why she sent me to a
Christian church when the wholetime she's a Muslim.
But I was just joking Until Ihad a recent conversation with
my grandma and she was talkingabout how she was thankful for,
like, still living, because youknow she's older now she's
(19:46):
thankful for still living.
She prays the Almighty God alot.
I'm like, oh snap, so my jokesreally are true, because this
whole time I didn't think shewas a Muslim for real.
So I'm like, ok, so that's thejoke.
I could say that's really thetruth, but it is another is
another joke.
That is not the truth at all.
This is on.
It's a joke where I talk aboutbeing in the army and I was
(20:10):
talking about how you know itwas tough for me because you
know I'm skinny and all, so Ican have these heavy bags and I
can never keep up.
That's not true at all.
I just I just say that becauseyou know it's a funny joke, but
I didn't really like it in thearmy.
I was like I'm not, I'm on thebrad, but you know I was good.
Let's just say that I was good.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Oh man, it's nothing, as long as it's not like too
much fat on to it.
It's like it's not believable.
It's believable because you'rea friend.
Like I got a joke where I saidmy mom booked me at a black
church and the church they wascoming up to me and give me
words of encouragement.
I think my mom didn't book meat a black church.
She booked.
(20:49):
I didn't get booked at all.
I was in a black church crowdat a bar.
And that's when they was givingme the words of encouragement.
So that's when I was like, ohshit, you know, and I bomb so
bad and that's how I startedthis podcast is because of that
bomb.
So that bomb made no idea.
Man, is there any celebritiesthat you've worked with or ever
(21:14):
got like a star struck withsince she been in LA?
Is there?
Have you ever seen any?
Open mic scenes.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I've seen a couple of celebrities.
They're not like real bigcelebrities but they're you know
they're.
They're unknown.
So it's one guy, one of mypromoters, fargis Mason.
I've seen him on Def Comedy Jamand then now I'm like, I'm like
I'm on good terms with him, sohe's I'm going to say I'm a star
struck, but I like he'ssomebody that I knew.
(21:44):
I don't really get star struckoften, but who else have I
worked with?
It was a yeah, it was a coupleof celebrities I worked with
that I wasn't really a starstruck, but it is one person I
have seen.
It was Thundercat my.
He's one of my, he is myfavorite artist, I don't.
I never seen him like, I nevertalked to him anything, but it
was so random.
(22:05):
I was driving I think I wasdriving to work one day right
and I seen him walking down thestreet.
I'm like who's driving?
Like who's that doing thenoodles Dressed?
I look closer and I'm like, ohshoot, that's Thundercat Bruh.
I was.
I was so star struck I eventhought about turning around,
turning my whole car around, andgo get a picture with him.
(22:26):
That's how star struck I was.
I call on my friend.
I like it, bro.
You'll never guess what I justsee?
It's only I'll call my girl.
I said you're gonna guess whatI just seen something.
I call everybody becauseeverybody who knows me know I
love I'm a huge fan of fun, okay.
So I'm like that's like theonly time I ever been star
struck.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
So it happens.
Excuse me, I'm so fucking JerrySanfield.
One time at the movie will likein Connecticut and I knew it
was Jerry, cuz the security waswalking through him and shit and
I was like fuck yeah.
(23:06):
And I was like I don't evenknow about your ass, will
picture something.
But you know you're struck.
You start, you like In yourmind but not a him, but really
he's right in your face.
I'm the cat.
That's great.
You got good music taste then.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Yeah yeah, he's very.
You know, I grew up my grandmaand all Blurred.
Yeah, I grew up my grandma, somy brother, the first, the first
um album I ever heard was atemptations album.
And I thought it was like abrand new, brand new band at the
time.
I heard them because I didn'tknow nothing Like.
(23:42):
It took me a while to likeactually know like who music or
like where music started fromand all because I didn't grow up
with people my own age.
I didn't start listening tothat till I was probably like in
middle school, so growing up onthis like people from the 90s
to from the 80s, 70s, because myown I live with my cousin also
and she was born in the 70s andnow you know, I mean she listed
(24:03):
to like early hip-hop and youknow, thanks to the cabinet,
came out in the 80s.
So it took me a while to Tellme why don't like know my own,
my own generational music.
So, yeah, my opinion is like sodiverse so Anytime you get in
my car, just you don't know whatyou're gonna listen to next.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
It's uh, likewise I've been.
You talk about thunder cat.
I listen to gregor reporter andsting and yeah, like it's, it's
, it went.
I think some older gettingolder.
I don't know what's going on.
But uh, yeah, that's it.
You don't know what you'regonna get man, you might get
money back, get one minute andhe might get hauling oats.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, I got it.
Thank you, the scraps you put.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Thank you the scraps.
My personality is like allright.
Well, man, I could trap withyou the next Singing along.
You're gonna look at me likewhat the hell you playing?
I don't know man.
This is, this is my car.
You know it's my playlist.
So yeah, I'll get you, man,what's the best advice that
(25:15):
you've gotten since you'vegotten to this creative space?
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Hmm, I'll say the best advice.
It happened when I was atschool.
It was, um, I'm not I'm notgonna say word from word, but
it's something in the area thebest advice I ever got was just
to have fun, does it?
It's?
It's the most simple advice Iever heard, because it's most
(25:39):
people you'd like if you were anew actor or something like that
.
They got there trying to bevery specific and they try to
like, really get that role.
But if, if like the director orcast not ready to see that you
have fun with the role, thenyou'll, then they'll remember
you because I got.
It was a couple times where Ihave been told that they just
said I was having fun justbecause of my personality.
Even if it's like I'm crying orI'm being like I'm I'm being
(26:03):
shot or something like that, ifit's a drama role, I was still
having fun with it.
I wasn't like being too, youknow, too serious, you know, so
just be loose.
So that's not like the bestadvice I ever got.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
The best advice I got is when you get into this, you
get this is a passion project.
Um, and Bernie Mac I add Berniemax thing on when he said fame
comes before money All right, soif you're looking to make money
in any of this right now whileyou're starting, it's not gonna
(26:37):
happen, it'll come.
The fame gonna come first, therecognition.
So people might say, damn,that's taz, I saw his skit.
That's a boy who grandma was amuslim and he went to a
christian church.
That's taz who saw ramennoodles and noodle hair on the
street to work.
And this was gonna happen firstand then the money was stopped
(26:59):
coming in.
But If you, I think if you uh,have fun that's one of the
things I always tell anybodythat's getting.
I just do comedy, um, but ifanybody's getting to anything,
it was one have fun like this isthis isn't Some shit that you
got to go on there and go beserious or time.
If you have fun and project itto your audience, like you doing
(27:20):
your skits, like you've done inyour movies and how you doing
your writing and a doing yourstand-up, your audience, well, I
should be like damn he, like hehaving a good ass time.
So then they'll have a goodtime.
So it just, it's the energy Ihaving fun.
So, yeah, you're a good dude,bro.
