“This hasn’t been paid out yet. So many people they said they wrote it. T-Pain had a part in it. It was a young writer they took it from somewhere.”

“The best thing is to not be anywhere. As a comedian, we’re like lions. We don’t censor ourselves. I would tell him to just chill right now.”

From comedy to singing:
“I did comedy just to cut a demo. I went on stage as Eric Bishop (my real name), but I couldn’t get on. I was at the Improv in Santa Monica and I noticed that the girls were always getting on stage and not the guys. So I wrote down these unisex names – Stacey Brown and Jamie Foxx and he picked me.”

How he acts in a relationship:
“I’ve never stalked, but it was one of the situations where the love was hard and the fight was hard. I’m that dude. I feel it all. If you’re in love in my business, the best way to keep your relationship in tact is to not let anyone know.”
What’s he’s looking for in a woman:
“It’s changed. You’re looking for that girl that says, “I took your mom to so-so while you’re gone, I checked on your daughter…”

On social media:
“I don’t think it’s anything in my world. People says that social media makes stars. I think you’re going to be a star regardless. If you’re not talented and you don’t have something to offer. If you do have something that’s good, they’ll big it up.”
