Cipha Sounds is very famous in New York. I’m really famous in Philadelphia. Naturally, putting us in the same room became a public safety concern for the entire Northeast Corridor.
Cipha joins me to talk about working his way up at Hot 97, DJing on Chappelle’s Show, being told by Dave Chappelle that he should try stand-up, and eventually turning comedy into his full-time career. He explains why DJing and stand-up require the exact same survival skills, what makes a Philadelphia crowd uniquely terrifying, why he starts everyone at 100, and how he became professionally famous-person-adjacent.
We also discuss microplastics, women in comedy, white-collar crime, his invitation to a Jay-Z premiere that was hiding in his inbox, and why he refuses to let beef linger.
See Cipha Sounds live at Punch Line Philly on October 9 and 10. Get your tickets before the shows sell out! https://www.punchlinephilly.com/
