Chris Rock

Chris Rock began doing stand-up comedy in 1985 in New York City's Catch a Rising Star. Eddie Murphy befriended and mentored the aspiring comic after seeing him in one of his performances. Murphy gave Rock his first film role in Beverly Hills Cop II.Rock became a cast member of Saturday Night Live in 1990. He and other new cast members Chris Farley, Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider and David Spade were known as the Bad Boys of SNL (even though Rock got less exposure than the other four) His work on SNL gave Rock national exposure. In 1991, his first comedy album "Born Suspect" was released and won Chris critical acclaim. He also received critical acclaim for his portrayal of a crack addict in the film "New Jack City". Sure Chris Rock has an impressive movie resume', but his real talent lies in his stand-up. After all, when Comedy Central votes you as the fifth greatest stand-up comedian of all time, you have to stand back and see that perhaps this is Mr. Rock's true calling.

Chris Rock has charisma and you can't help but laugh when he is doing his routine. His material pleads with you to understand how silly we are as a nation and how ridiculous we are as humans. Standard Chris Rock topics include: African-American culture, American politics, current events, human sexuality, marriage, pop culture, race relations and racism. Though racism is part of his act, Chris Rock makes it clear that there is no delineation between white and black. We're all f***ed up according to Chris Rock.

The number one reason people hate America: the number one reason is because of our religion. Americans worship money, we worship money. Separate God from school, separate God from work, separate God from government, but on your money it says in God we trust. All my life I've been looking for God, and He's right in my pocket. Americans worship money, and we all go to the same church, the church of ATM. Everywhere you look there's a new branch popping up … remind you about how much money you got and how much money you don't got. And if you got less than twenty dollars, the machine won't even talk to you. The machine is like, "You better go see a teller." You ever go to a teller and try to take out eight dollars and fifty cents? Oh, it's disgusting … oh man, you gotta wait on that long ass line, people doing real transactions in front of you, you get on to the fucking front, you fill out your form, eight fifty. The fucking teller looks at it, she look at you, she looks at the check, she don't even take the money out of the drawer, she take it out of her pocket, "Here you go, get outta here." And here's something, man. Drugs are illegal, but ATM machines are open twenty-four hours a day. Twenty-four hours a day. For who? Who the fuck is it open for? Have you ever taken out three hundred dollars at four o'clock in the morning for something positive? Shit, when you press that machine at four o'clock in the morning, I think a psychiatrist should pop up on the screen and go, "Come on, man, save your money, man. Don't buy drugs, buy some rims. They spinning, nigga, they spinning, they spinning, nigga, they spinning." Americans worship money. Shit, you know why banks are closed on Sunday? 'Cause if they wasn't, church would be empty.

When you see Chris Rock performing, you can actually see his joy as he throws out his observations on the human condition.
