I think being raised by a single mother put me on the outside, and I would watch my mother’s married friends and think, ‘Why does she put him down in public?’ or, ‘Why is he so rude to her?’ It seemed to me that there were very few marriages where the couple were genuinely in a supportive, loving partnership.

I love doing comedy, and I don’t get a chance to much. I get to play lots of serious people, and killers, and people with a lot of… sheriffs. Good people and bad people, but lots of drama, and to get a chance to be genuinely silly is a great treat for me.

Twenty or 30 years ago, certainly when my mother was my age, I’m sure she felt things were pretty over for her. You had your kids when you were 20. You brought them up. They left home. Then what do you do? While I feel genuinely optimistic. Well, I have no other choice.
Voters are smart. They know the difference between a Democratic Party that wants their vote and a Democratic Party that believes in making their life better.

I always say, ‘Man, the Creator is preparing me for something. He’s keeping the sun on me for some reason. He’s keeping me aligned with that generation.’ Because I genuinely love people, I love hip-hop, and I love using it as a tool to communicate and to create a better vibration.
