“At the end of the day, your fans are the people who support you in and out. And their opinions matter.”

What women need to understand is that men don’t communicate. It’s not intentional or on purpose. We’re just not as emotional. You ladies feel like you have to express yourselves.

At some point in time, you definitely have to go drama. Not to say that you’re going drama just because everybody else does it.

I love being on stage, I love being able to tell a story, I love the fact that the audience listens and laughs at it. It makes me happy, and it’s what I live for.

I am who I am. That’s why my friends and peers respect and appreciate me.

I get that racism exists, but it’s not a catalyst for my content. I don’t need to talk about race to have material.

I’m never gonna step away from stand-up. I can’t. That’s what got me where I am, and that’s also my muse. That’s how I stay level-headed. That’s what keeps me going.

You make yourself broad. You make yourself appealing. ‘Hey, y’all, I’m cool with everybody.’ That’s my message.
