Well, 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.200 I started back in two thousand twelve. Man, I started 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:10.040 on Vine. You know what I'm saying. I had a 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.320 friend Namer shop Funnel, who introduced me to this, to this, uh, 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:15.240 to that social media app. You know what I'm saying. 0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:16.799 You know, I was the kid growing up, you know 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:18.440 what I'm saying, the funny guy and I you know, 0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:20.639 but I played sports at first, you know what I'm saying. 0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.480 So I was that guy. You know your people always 0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:24.000 tell me, man, Man, if you don't make it to 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:25.880 the NFL, you don't make it to you know what 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.040 I'm saying, playing college bag, I think you should do comedy, 0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:29.640 you know. So I didn't never take it seriously because 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:31.280 I really thought I was gonna make it to the NFL. 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:34.880 You know what I'm saying. Um, long story short, you know, 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:38.280 came here came you know. I graduated from kylogn with 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:41.760 Georgia University, got a sociology degree. Um. The same friend 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:45.040 that told me to to start uh doing the two 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:46.560 thousand twelve you know what I'm saying.

And so that's when I 0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:55.040 got into you know, I started doing it in two 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:56.960 thousand and fifteen and not jumped on Instagram.

But when you come to their country, 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:33.160 it's like, oh wow, this guy is funny. So you know, 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.200 it just takes you to a whole another level. And 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.920 I feel like to get to me personally, I feel 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:41.760 like to get those major Hollywood roles, you know, those 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:46.520 major Hollywood TV shows, you have to be respect if 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.040 you want to be respected as a real comedian and 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:51.560 and get those opportunities. I feel like you have to 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:54.480 touch that stage. I have a question. You said, when 0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:57.199 you go overstaff, people don't know who you are, but 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:02.760 we don't know who the hell Polay? When out who 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:06.319 po is? Are We ever gonna find out who Polis is? 0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:10.480 Or is really the for the franchise boys? Is that really? 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:14.040 I know that for the French aise board, But no, 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:20.440 that's that's not him. That's not him. Yeah, and everybody 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:22.520 asked it too, they gotta be him, But now that 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:26.720 that's gotta be Oh no, my Polate different, man, I 0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:38.080 mean apartment he camera shot, you know, um, but maybe 0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:41.959 one day, Jessie, Man, I'm not gonna lie to you, 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:45.960 like I think some of my favorite skuts that you 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:50.560 do are definitely like an apartment. When you're round, you 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.200 know your cul your dudes, because for me, they are 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:57.720 the realist. Like literally, I can envision somebody I know 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:02.319 being every damn body in the video, Like the body language, 0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:09.640 the demeanor, like all of it is now vary. I've 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:15.120 been saying that supporting boy that is so funny to me. 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.760 So I'm assuming that some of these skits are like, 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.520 you know, inspired by real life, you know, hanging out 0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:23.320 with your boys and stuff. So now that you're Dessi Banks, 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.480 like Jessie Dessi Banks Banks, and you're getting some money 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:30.920 and you got these all new relationships, how is life 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:34.079 different from when you're hanging out at the Potmanster, when 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:37.600 you're hanging out with Hollywood people. Now it's I feel 0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:40.080 like now it's it's it's more of a structured thing. Now, 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:42.880 actually know what you want, you know what I'm saying. 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.800 And when you have these millions of millions of people following, 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:47.920 when you gotta have some kind of plan, you know 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:49.840 what I'm saying. So that's why I said, I'm thankful 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.240 that I know what I want, you know what I'm saying. 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:54.120 Where I'm at right now, I know I want to 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:56.200 be a actor. I know I want to be a 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:59.120 big stand up comedian. I know I want to be 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.959 a part of you know, different major things. You know 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:04.560 what I'm saying that that Hollywood you know give me. 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:07.959 So it's it's a lot of different steps I had 0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:11.360 to take, like getting the agent, uh you know, at 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.560 the right team around me to help me get these 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:17.720 major opportunities. You know. It's just you know, it's things 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:22.120 like that. Um, look at these rich folks would be like, damn, 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:28.760 y'all born. Yeah, yeah, you're gonna get bored, but it's 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:31.040 gonna be a good board. No, you know, they may 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:34.400 be born to them, but it's it's actually really safer 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:37.720 to you if that makes you know, right, well, speaking 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.720 of safety, Um, you know, going back, you know, you 0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:43.160 did your comedy used on the ground real heavy, and 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:46.320 now you're a new father. How has that been um 0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:48.760 for you up to this point because I know it's 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:51.080 like I know, it's probably a little bit more serious now, 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.600 especially you know, being a new father and all that. 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:57.160 Can you explain this new life? Oh, it's it's it's 0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:00.280 it's a major blessing. And now I have a major 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:02.920 why why I do everything? Now? You know what I'm saying, 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:05.559 that's it's for my family now, you know, it's it's 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:07.960 for my son. You know. Every time I make ap 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:10.920 video or makeup or be on the stage or a 0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:13.840 book a movie, is is it always the oldest in 0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:15.320 my family, you know what I'm saying. So, I mean, 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:17.960 that's it. Hey, that's what That's what it's about. You know. 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:20.280 I want to become the new generation of my family. Man, 0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:23.760 Nobody in my family have ever been on this type 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:25.920 of you know what I'm saying level when they come 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.000 to you know, this type of fame or you know, 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:29.680 whatever the people call it. You know what I'm saying. 0:14:29.720 --> 0:14:32.600 But I want to just show them that, hey, man, 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:34.320 we can do it. We could do it too, because 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:36.760 you know, they're come from the generation it's go to work, 0:14:37.000 --> 0:14:39.960 you know, and and and that's it. You know, they 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:43.680 don't really believe this stuff until it actually happens and 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:46.440 they actually see it, you know what I'm saying. So 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:50.800 like it took my mom like time man, to like say, 0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:53.000 like people always saying, you're trying to send your funny 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:56.160 my damn sounding, no damn funny, you know what I'm saying. 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:58.800 But when she actually when she actually came to a show, 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:01.000 the first show show, I think she came to. You know, 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:03.040 she came to my line of show, it was cool. 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:04.920 But when she came to like my out of town show. 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.000 I was in Birmingham, Alabama, and she saw those people 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:11.400 in the crowd, and that's when it like it was like, 0:15:11.600 --> 0:15:14.880 oh damn, my baby is doing something. You know when 0:15:14.880 --> 0:15:16.440 I'm when I come from You know what I'm saying 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:18.320 that that's a major blessing, you know what I'm saying. 0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:20.480 So a lot of people don't do stuff. You know 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:22.960 what I'm saying. Blackness is what I'm doing. So that's 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:25.280 another reason why I gotta kind of like serious, you 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:27.000 know what, I gotta take it serious, and I gotta 0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:28.920 really stay focused on it, you know what I'm saying, 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:30.800 Because it's like you want to get one shot, you 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:32.960 know what I'm saying. That's a fact, you know what 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:36.920 I'm saying. You the be Sammes, the DC Young Flies, y'all. 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.400 Y'all remind me kind of like back in the nineties 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:42.320 where you know, the grind of being a comedian was 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:45.720 so heavy, and then they became like our superstars, like 0:15:45.720 --> 0:15:48.640 our Jamie Foxes, you know what I'm saying, And um 0:15:48.680 --> 0:15:51.240 that that's what you know, where we are right now 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:53.680 in our generation. That's what you guys remind me of. 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:55.680 And I just want to commend you guys for just 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:58.920 sticking with it, just changing the game, because this is 0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:02.000 a whole, this whole different playing field, you know, where 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:03.800 you can come up off of social media and you 0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:05.880 already have the people. You don't have to go out 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:08.200 and uh, you know, try to get the people just 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:10.440 by doing one movie or two when you got them 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:14.840 locked in and your personal accounts on your social media. 0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:17.000 So man, I just want to just give it up 0:16:17.000 --> 0:16:19.560 to you and just say, you know, I appreciate the 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:22.680 grind and and taking it to the next level for 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:26.640 our generation because y'all will be like the next Jamie Foxes, 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:29.600 that Eddie Murphy's like you're saying, you know, of our time. 0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:33.040 So yeah, now I'm not an old heads tend to 0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:36.080 kind of I don't want to say ship on you know, 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:38.600 the young ends, but they look at you know, how 0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:41.920 we're able to get money and like manipulate and utilize 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:44.360 social media. Do you ever feel like some of the 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:47.920 old heads like don't necessarily respect your path because they 0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:50.360 feel like you don't have to grind as hard as 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:54.400 them or grind in the same way. Uh most definitely, 0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:56.840 I felt the tension would have been around, you know, 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:01.880 come overheard, come and say and stout they feel, you know, 0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:05.119 social media comedians are you know what I'm saying.
