Detroit-born and bred Haha Davis found his passion as a comedian/ internet sensation in 2013 by creating funny Vine videos and Instagram clips. His hilarious characters soon caught they eye of several celebrities, including Chance the Rapper, and in 2015 he was featured on the tracks “No Problems”, “All Night”, and “Blessings” on Chance the Rapper’s album Coloring Book and he narrated the Magnificent Coloring World Tour as the character Carlos The Lion.
Since then, his Instagram following has grown to 2.8million and in 2017, Haha’s catchphrase,” Dis Finna be a breeze” became a pop culture sensation that was adopted by celebrities and athletes on social media from Snoop Dogg to Tom Brady, which ultimately led to a music video collaboration with Snoop Dogg based on the phrase.
Haha is everywhere these days — he’s been featured in an episode of Detroiters, in promos for TBS’s Drop the Mic, in Forbes Magazine, as a character in the NBA2k18 video game and he embarked on a nationwide tour, to name a few. Up next, he’s developing an animated series based on his popular character, Big Fella.

He grew up on Chicago’s south side and was a good enough basketball player to earn a scholarship to Illinois State University. He returned home after a career-ending injury, working in a store and then driving a truck. He was 27 years old when he mustered up the courage to enter a comedy contest sponsored by Miller Beer, with a spot on the Def Comedy Jam tour as a prize.
