➤ TK KirklandTK Kirkland is the foremost American underground comic, and one that has gained a tremendous cult following over the past few decades.
TK Kirkland, or “T To The M*th*f*ckin K” as he likes to call himself, is like a Forrest Gump of hiphop and comedy, connecting stars throughout the years, launching careers with his management company, aiding in squashing beef and so much more. the man has led a very colourful life (to say the least) and is not ashamed to talk about it. He was instrumental in the formation of legendary rap group NWA, he launched oscar-winning Hollywood star Jamie Foxx, Original King of Comedy DL Hughley and crowd favorite Mike Epps. He was born in New Jersey but spent his formative years in Compton, and just recently had a street named after him in his birth place.
He has the gift of comedic timing, cadance and intonation, can go off on an impromptu occurrences, and has stories (and opinions) for miles, but is best known for the hilarious catchphrase “Who raised you?”, which is also the title of one of his most sought after performances, which was the #1 comedy show on Amazon Prime upon its release in 2019. Although he doesn’t shy away from the bigger issues, his main commentary is on how people live their lives, love and interact. He has a knack for mixing strong opinions with absolute nonsense to the point where the difference gets blurred.
Few other comics can deliver the way TK does, and he is without a doubt one of the most influential Afro-American comics on the scene today.
TK Kirkland is headed to Europe for the very first time.
