Let me tell you, there's nothing like pulling up to Fox Studios bumping Jeezy in your Mercedes.
That's the biggest thing: be kind and be original.
I'm just saying, and I'm going to say it enough times: I want to play Bernie Mac.
Everybody makes a decision about where they want their career to go. If I really want something, I put a lot of effort into it. If I don't want something, I won't.
I used to watch 'Last Comic Standing' with my mom before she passed. So when I got that red envelope, I was extremely emotional.
'No Scrubs' is a mean song for a lot of reasons. If you're 18, 19-year-old guy, or even 17, your friend just got a license. You don't have a real job yet. It's like that song asks you to be an adult way faster than you should.
My respect for TSA agents went up a notch. We look at 'em like, 'You can't bother me, I'm gettin' on my flight. Stop wastin' my time.' They're doing it to protect us. Their job is to do everything they're doing. We sometimes don't respect other people's jobs because we're caught up in our world.
I know I'm being biased about Chicago, but I think Chicago got the most talented people in the world.
Some of the scariest movies I've seen are not considered horror movies, like 'Gone Girl.' That movie scared me. I can't watch it again.
My friends were the class clowns, but I was the one in class doing Michael Jordan or teachers for no reason. I've always been amazing at impersonating real people, too, rather than celebrities.
The biggest thing is we need to stop acting like racism don't exist.
So people thought once Obama got into office that racism was over with. But, what we ended up learning was that it just came more into the light.
You have these kids trying to make these grown up decisions because nobody is talking to them. We're talking at them, but we're not listening to them.
I can't wait for the rest of my career to meet these young writers and filmmakers so that I can produce and push a lot of their stories out there.
I'm not gonna go steal an airport car and go save someone. That's crazy. But I will do almost anything for any of my friends.
There's a difference between delivering real funny and just silly funny.
I love acting. I was one of those dudes that was always in the plays in the church and at school.
The honesty of my material and my being vulnerable was from Richard Pryor. He doesn't mind talking about his life, which is why I think he was one of the dopest to ever do it.
Directing is so dope to me, man, 'cause it doesn't necessarily have to be your material. You're making someone else's material come to life. There's something amazing about that.
Not everybody gonna be in front of the camera forever, man. That's impossible. Don't get me wrong, I love doing that. But behind the scenes and the power is what I like. I like being in control. And maybe someday I'd be a showrunner.
