Affion Crockett on Tour
Breaking through on shows like ‘Wild 'N Out' and ‘Def Comedy Jam,' comedian Affion Crockett developed a gregarious style on stage and became a memorable celebrity impersonator, to say the least. Crockett does a mean Russell Simmons, and a Chris Rock bit that's as spot-on for mimicking Rock's familiar voice as it is for his facial expressions. But nobody does Jay-Z like Affion Crockett; his HOVA mimicry even spawned a comedy rap album called ‘Watch the Clone,' which Crockett wrote, produced, and performed himself. It's a testament to his well-rounded talent, and although he no longer makes a living as a dancer, his style of comedy is nothing short of physical. As a regular cast member on four seasons of ‘Wild 'N Out,' Crockett learned to be quick on his feet, and it's a signature trait that he brings to his stand-up at comedy clubs nationwide.
Affion Crockett Background
Originally from Fayetteville, North Carolina, Affion Crockett's career in entertainment began as a dancer in the '90s, when he appeared on ‘Showtime at the Apollo.' Shy by nature and comfortable as a dancer, it wasn't until he saw comedian Kool Bubba Ice doing impressions on ‘Def Comedy Jam' that he wanted to take a crack at it too, and he soon found himself on stage at the Jamie Foxx-hosted show. Regular stints on ‘Def Comedy Jam' led to a journeyman career, then his many standout moments alongside Nick Cannon and a slew of promising young comedians on ‘Wild 'N Out.' In 2011, he reconnected with Foxx to produce his own show, ‘In the Flow with Affion Crockett.' He's appeared on ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm' with Larry David, ‘The Wedding Ringer' with Kevin Hart, and ‘Soul Men' with Bernie Mack and Samuel L. Jackson. The multitalented and flat-out hilarious Crockett has even done voice-overs for ‘Family Guy,' ‘The Boondocks,' and ‘Robot Chicken.' But hip-hop culture is at the core of everything he does, and he's always delivering fresh material as a stand-up comedian first and foremost.
I'd definitely go see Affion Crockett again, I just would probably go the second night or the late show. The crowd at the 7:30 Friday night show was pretty stiff. I still laughed and amhad a good time though
He was wonderful jokes were funny and he kept it going pretty non stop to the end and the guy before him was great as well.
I sat in the very front and enjoyed every moment from the opener to Affion himself. Just like I expected, jokes flied like they should. The crowd was a little dull but nonetheless, Affion did his thing. I'd love to come see him again.
He worked so hard! He puts his everything into his comedy. You would never guess he had another show right after ours. I mean where does he find the energy?! He was truly funny and incorporated the crowd which is always fun long as it's not you! Ha! A wonderful treat for my husband. Thanks, Affion!
Affion crockett was extremely funny and crowd friendly
It was awesome this was my son's first comedy show, he was elated with laughter. All the comedians were funny. Wish there was a meet & greet,but we were allowed to take photos of Affion Crockett on stage.
He’s way funnier than most of these “popular comedians” out here. The show was truly enjoyable! Must see him in person.
I’ve never seen Affion live but I follow him on IG, so I decided to take a chance which was the best decision I’d made all week. This man was funny from the moment he stepped onto the stage!! His stage presence was excellent and it was clear that he felt comfortable and belonged there. I always enjoy the impressions, and just his overall demeanor; I can tell that he’s just a good guy. After the show I purchased a t-shirt and he graciously autographed it for me, while also posing for a pic—this guy, his entire team, and the staff were all amazingly cool. Please have him come back to Philly and SOON!! PS- His openers had that crowd all the way warmed up b/c they too are talented and very funny. Nice group.
Loved it!! "Ethel, Where's my Id" Xxxxxxxxxxxx
Laugh the whole time ! Very very funny !!!!!!! I would defiantly see the show again
A little crude for my tastes. And the service at Club Velvet was TERRIBLE!!!!!
THE CROWD WAS A LITTLE DEAD, BUT AFFION DID HIS THING. ME AND MY TEAM, WERE FRONT AND CENTER. HE HAD ME LAUGHING, THROUGH THE WHOLE SET. I LOVED IT.
