>> HERE IS THE THING, THE BOOK TOUR WAS JUST A DISGUISE FOR
MUSIC, COMEDIANS, I MEAN WE'RE GOING TO CRAZY, WE GOT ALL TYPES
OF CIRCUS ANIMALS AND THINGS COMING OUT.
IT WAS JUST AMAZING.
BUT LEGITIMATELY IT IS A THING WITH US BECAUSE WE ARE COMEDIANS
SO WHEN WE GOT OUT, EVERYBODY PACKED THE APOLLO THEATER WHICH
WAS ICONIC AM AND I TOOK SOME OF THE STORIES IN THE BOOK AND
TURNED THEM INTO COMEDY BITS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, IT JUST FELT
GOOD, ESPECIALLY IN NEW YORK, SHOUT OUT TO THEM BECAUSE THEY
ARE GOING THROUGH SO MUCH.
THEY JUST NOW OPENED IT UP.
I'M FRESH OFF COMING FROM ATLANTA WHICH THEY NEVER.
>> YEAH.
ATLANTA NEVER CLOSED, YOU KNOW.
YOU DON'T WANT TO WEAR A MASK.
WE ARE COVERED IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS.
>> COVERED BY THE LAMB.
IT IT WAS GREAT TO BE OUT IN FRONT OF PEOPLE AND DOING THAT,
I GOT THAT BOOK.
SO I WILL BE COMING OUT, DOING STAND UP COMEDY SO MAKE SURE YOU
CHECK ME OUT.
>> James: I'M EXCITED FOR THAT.
>> LOOK AT THAT.
>> James: GUARANTEE WAS CRAZY FOR EVERYBODY BUT WHEN I HEARD
ABOUT YOUR SITUATION, IT SOUNDS ROUGH TO ME.
CUZ YOU LIVE WITH YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY, INCLUDING YOUR PARENTS
WHO I THINK DIVORCED MORE THAN 30 YEARS AGO.
>> YES, YES.
>> James: AND YOU ALL MOVED IN.
>> YES.
>> James: HOW WAS THAT?
>> FIRST OF ALL, I WAS HORRIBLE.
BECAUSE I WAS SO LIKE, WHEN QUARANTINE FIRST HIT I WAS LIKE
THE VIRUS, IT'S RIGHT OUTSIDE, GET AWAY FROM THE WINDOWS.
PIE DAUGHTER WAS WALKING, CRAWL TO MEEVMENT I WAS LIKE, YOU
KNOW.
JAMIE FOK, THE GREAT-- IS WITH LIKE I WAS CRAZY F SOMEBODY
COUGHED LIKE GET OUT OF THE HOUSE.
BUT THE FACT THAT I HAD MY WHOLE FAMILY WORK AND THE FACT THAT I
HAD ABOUT 10 TO 12 DWSH-- WE HAD 14 PEOPLE THERE.
WE ALL SEQUESTERED AT THE SAME TIME AM BUT MY MOTHER WHO IS
LIVING WITH ME NOW AND MY FATHER WHO HAD BEEN DIVORCED FOR LIKE
SOME TIME, YOU KNOW, THEY ARE NOT QUITE TOGETHER.
AND THE THING IS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH EACH NOW, THEY
HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH ME FOR LIKE 14 YEARS BUT THEY ARE
DIVORCED.
WHAT IS CRAZY IS HE STILL DATES.
HE STILL HAS GIRLS COMING OVER.
SHE SHOW FIGURED OUT A WAY TO GET ON HIS SIDE OF THE HOUSE
WHEN IT IS A DATE THERE JUST TO LOOK AT THE GIRL, OKAY, HOW YOU
DOING.
>> James: THAT IS WHEN YOU KNOW YOU HAVE MADE IT WHEN A
MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY COMES TO YOU WHEN YOU SAY CAN YOU ASK
SOMEONE ELSE TO STAY ON THEIR SIDE OF THE HOUSE.
THAT'S WHEN-- THAT'S WHEN IT'S DONE, WHEN FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE
SIDES OF A HOUSE.
>> BUT IF YOU EVER COME TO MY HOUSE, THEY CALL IT BLACK MESSY
CUZ IT AIN'T ALL TOGETHER JUST YET IT IS STILL KIND OF HOOD,
LIKE I LEAVE STUFF UNFINISHED ON PURPOSE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO
STOP BEING FUNNY, YOUKNOW WHAT I MEAN, I WENT TO EDDIE MURPHY'S
HOUSE, HE WAS LIKE I'M ABOUT TO GO AND DO SOME STAND UP, I AM
THINKING, YOU CAN'T, YOUR HOUSE IS TOO NICE.
>> WHY, WHY CAN'T YOU BE STAND UP IF YOUR HOUSE IS TOO NICE.
>> BECAUSE EDDIE WAS SAYING, YOU HAVE GOT TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT
IS OFF IN ORDER TO FEEL LIKE YOU ARE NOT BEHIND THE GATES
OF-- YOU KNOW, STUFF LIKE THAT YOUR GAME ROOM, WHAT IS WRONG
WITH MY GAME ROOM, ALL YOUR GAMES WORK.
YOU GOT TO HAVE LIKE MISS PAC-MAN HAS TO HAVE THE NOBODY
BROKE OFF OR SOMETHING, BECAUSE IN MY CRIB, IT IS SO UNFINISHED
THAT WHEN PEOPLE ARE THE AT MY HOUSE GOING WOW, WHAT IS UP WITH
THIS.
IS HE NOT CASHING HIS CHECKS?
AND I GOT A BATHROOM THAT I NEVER FINISHED AND IT HAS THE
FAUCET THAT SPRAYS OUT.
I DON'T FIX IT BUT I LIKE WATCHING PEOPLE COME OUT OF THE
BATHROOM LIKE-- (APPLAUSE).
>> James: NOW I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS, JAMIE FOXX,
BECAUSE LOOK AT JAMIE FOX FOXX ON THE COVER OF MEN'S HEALTH.
I MEAN-- (CHEERS AND APPLAUSE).
>> James: LOOK, LOOK AT THE ARMS, LOOK AT THE ARMS, DO YOU
HAVE A LIKENESS TO CARRY THESE GUNS.
>> ALL I CAN TELL YOU, I HELD THAT POSE, I SAID Y'ALL BETTER
TAKE THIS QUICK BEFORE I HAVE AN ANEURYSM.
BUT I TELL YOU WHAT, YOU SEE THIS SHOT, AND YOU NOTICE I TELL
THEM MAKE SURE YOU CUT OFF AT THE LEGS.

ARE ACTUALLY LOVED LIKE IT IS ALL IN THERE FOR YOU.
