[Bit 1]

I just want to give you an introduction of myself on mix,

black and white.

I dropped out of school and learned all my math

from drug dealing.

And I'm actually the best

of my whole family at math, right?

'Cause I'm half black,

the rest of my family I hang around is white.

But for some reason, they always refer to me as three-fifths.

Which I never understood

'cause the fraction is actually one-half.

[Bit 2]

But it's hard being mixed, you know,

'cause people always get so nosy,

I always have to ask the same question like,

oh, which parent is mixed?

Which parent is black?

Which parent is white, you know?

But I never tell them, I just kind of give them a hint.

Someone's like, is your mom black or is your mom white?

And I was like, "Um, my mom is fat."

And for the white people to understand that,

I just don't know my dad, that's the real reason.

[Bit 3]

But yeah, man, I feel like human connection

is really important.

I talked to a guy the other day, I said,

"Yeah, man, I'm a comedian."

He said, "Wow, I was an actor in New York for 10 years,

and then I sung in the opera for five years,

and then my whole career got ruined

'cause I got throat cancer.

So now he's a mime."
