7PM in Brooklyn with Carmelo Anthony

Mojo Brooks on Kevin Hart Roast Fallout, Comedy OGs, Katt Williams & Caleb Williams

5/25/202659 min

Mojo Brooks pulled up to 7PM in Brooklyn for a wild one with Melo and Kaz. Mojo talks about building his comedy career his way, touring with Mike Epps, learning from OGs, and why he doesn’t believe in competing with other comedians just to prove a point. He also gets into the new generation of comedy, Druski, Desi Banks, Jack Funny, crowd work, slow grinding until your number is called, and why everybody can’t be the guy at the same time. Then the conversation turns into Chicago sports, from the Bulls rebuild to Caleb Williams, the Bears’ future, and whether Caleb can really claim the Iceman nickname. Mojo also breaks down being at the Kevin Hart roast, seeing Katt Williams hit the stage, the Tony Hinchcliffe fallout, jokes crossing the line, and what people at home didn’t fully see from inside the room.
