Michael Blackson has quickly become a show-stopping act since making his comic debut in 1992, cracking up audiences around the world with his onstage antics and top-notch jokes. Whether he's delivering one-liners or poking fun at the audience, the famed African King of Comedy proves he's a master of his craft that can keep crowds laughing with hilarious insights on everything from relationships to life in his native Africa. Sporting his trademark Dashikis, Blackson is a quick-witted stand-up act who's bound to have ticket buyers in hysterics as he hits the road for a string of highly anticipated tour dates.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Born in Ghana, Africa, Michael Blackson was brought up on Eddie Murphy's comedic style, developing his own stand-up skits at a young age. After moving to Pennsylvania in the early '90s and testing out his jokes at local clubs, Blackson began competing in comedy contests, where his performances attracted attention from none other than Ice Cube. It wasn't long after they met that he appeared in Cube's hit film Next Friday, and his career took off from there.  Since then, he's had several more acting roles as well as stints on BET's ComicView and Shaq's All Star Comedy Jam, proving he's an all-around entertainer at heart with his impressive acting chops and outrageous skits. Showcasing his many talents on tour, Blackson will have fans doubled-over in laughter on his hilarious upcoming dates.

    Miramar, Amphitheater

    by A. on 7/18/21

    It wasnt nothing to brag about. I mean the weather did suck and it wasnt even a sold out show so the poor people on the lawn in the rain should have been able to get those seats. I was expecting a better performance. It didnt seem natural it seemed more rehearsed than anything. I felt like he was in a hurry to get off the stage. Especially after he started so late but honestly if he would have came sooner not many people would have been there because it wasnt that packed. The red skin guy that came on 2nd with the funny laugh was way more funny. Regardless my man and i did enjoy ourselves but i probably wont go back to see him.

    Horrible staff and venue

    by V. W. on 12/24/19Howard Theatre - Washington

    I paid for VIP but it seems like it wasn’t worth the money. VIP got front row but no table service and assistance. We were stuffed like sardines and completely ignored. No drink services or NOTHING. We had to get up for everything we wanted while general seating got all these amenities. I’ll never be back honestly not worth my money.

    It was GREAT, I had a blast!

    by Frankie on 11/7/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    The hardest i had laughed in a long time, all the comedians were on point and funny, they didn't miss a beat. Truly a GREAT SHOW, try to get there early though, the parking situation could have been better. But all in all, the show was like that!

    Funny???

    by J. R. on 11/6/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    Don't get me wrong, the host (DeRay Davis) was hilarious I wouldn't expect anything less from him. It was my first time hearing Chico Bean standup other than Wild 'N Out. Mannnnn, he is up and coming. Now, DC Young Fly....SMH...the dude is funny, high energy, and his personal story definitely 2 thumbs up. Unfortunately, Red Grant, Simone B, Michael Blackson....just my opinion was iight!!! Now, I'm a fan of Red & Michael, I can recall those guys having me in tears...REAL TALK. But I guess that night wasn't theirs. Simone B, pretty but her jokes were up and down. Bottom line, I still got my money worth.

    Ready to get your Laugh on

    by Big E. on 11/5/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    The host was Hilarious when he introduces the woman Be Simone she could’ve stayed home. Chico bean and DC young fly killed it. Red Grant need some new material he said the same thing two shows ago Once you heard it once it’s like a broken record. Now Mr.Blackson only thing was funny is as accent and he was the star of the show he was there for maybe 45mins. He stayed on crabs and talking to his doctor about HIV and the woman he likes. He could have been the host and DelRay Davis could have been the star of the show.

    DC young Fly should have been the headliner

    by B. B. on 11/5/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    B.Simmone, Chico Bean and DC young Fly was Funny AF. I was disappointed in Michael Blackson. His jokes were too dragged out. Alot of ppl walked out during his performance.

    Show was great my only complaint they started 35 min late

    by b. on 11/5/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    The show was scheduled to begin at 1130pm however it did not start until almost 12 midnight. If it's scheduled to begin at 1130pm then it should begin at 1130pm.

    When's the next show?!?!

    by robbiejaye95 on 11/5/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    Let me tell you, my boyfriend and I traveled to DC from the REAL Virginia (not the area trying to claim DMV @ChicoBeans) because I was DYING to see Chico and DC Young Fly!! Before going to the show, I was already a huge fan. After the show, my fan meter rose to new heights!! And DC's testimony, my God, made me proud to be a fan! To see him not be ashamed about speaking of God's blessings and grace and using his platform is commendable! We enjoyed just about everyone who performed! Along with Chico and DC, Dee Ray, B. Simone, and Red all had our attention and kept us laughing hysterically!! Though I respect him and what he does, I was SO disappointed in Michael Blackson. I'm not sure if it was the time of our show, but he was not at all funny. But, much respect!

    Amazing!

    by Khady on 11/5/19DAR Constitution Hall - Washington

    I had a blast at the event. Chico Bean, DC Young Fly, DeRay Davis, and Red Grant absolutely stoke the show. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time when they were performing. Michael Blackson was not great but I’d most definitely see the others perform again. The five star rating goes to the four that I mentioned above. Thank you for an unforgettable night.
