LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Uproar Entertainment announces the release of “Insert Token”, the debut stand-up comedy CD by Julian Michael. Recorded live at The Comedy Underground in Seattle, Wash., “Insert Token” presents the unique comic perspective of a man who considers himself a “double minority.”
JULIAN MICHAEL is a black, gay comedian with an attitude problem. A minority among minorities. Believing that his life calling is to make people laugh until they think, Julian uses his platform to subvert stereotypes, inspire others, and to give his audience a break from the status quo.
Shit kickers like Dave Chappelle, Paul Mooney and Hannibal Burress have provided Michael with his inspiration. Performing in a laid back style highlighting his California roots (emphasis on high), Julian delivers unfiltered commentary about anyone and everyone around him.
“I entered college certain I was going to be a Baptist minister. But somewhere along the way I discovered I loved the stage more than the pulpit. It took me a long time to fully commit to pursuing my passions,” said Michael.
In 2016 Julian left his comfort zone and a near decade long career in education to pursue his passion for entertainment full time.
In a very short time Julian’s #Token brand has taken on a life of its own. He is a World Series of Comedy finalist and “The Mayhem and Token Show,” with Tilo Murray, lead singer of the early 2000s rock supergroup Methods of Mayhem, has over 100,000 weekly listeners on Dash Radio. It is talk radio’s most unpredictable weekly experience!
WHO IS JULIAN MICHAEL?
“I am a comedian, radio host, writer, speaker, creative thinker, ordained minister, and problem solver. Very little of that fits on a business card. That’s why you can call me ‘Token,'” he says.
BE UNDEFINED – That’s Julian’s motto.
