Earthquake has also over the years been seen in countless films and TV series — most recently, Jerry Seinfeld’s comedy Unfrosted for Netflix, and Cedric The Entertainer’s CBS sitcom The Neighborhood. Currently, he can be seen in Johnson for Bounce, and he will soon reprise his Everybody Hates Chis role of Uncle Mike in the animated series Everybody Still Hates Chris on Comedy Central.
Earthquake also hosts Quake’s House, a radio show for Kevin Hart’s Laugh Out Loud Radio on SiriusXM. Touring the country as a comic for nearly 30 years, he opened his own comedy club, Uptown Comedy Corner, in Atlanta’s Buckhead entertainment district in 1993, becoming the first Black comic to own his own venue in the city.
A proud veteran of the U.S. Military, Earthquake served in the United States Air Force after graduating from high school. He continues to be managed by Dave Becky at 3 Arts Entertainment.
