If you haven’t already, you NEED to check out Hulu’s bomb new comedy “WOKE.” It has a bomb cast and the storyline is relevant to what’s going on in society today. Stars Lamorne Morris, Sasheer Zamata & T. Murph gave us the tea.
Hulu's new series "WOKE" is the smart, witty and thought provoking show you NEED to see in 2020. It features a bomb cast of actors, including Lamorne Morris, Sasheer Zamata, T. Murph, Cedric the Entertainer, Eddie Griffin, Nicole Byer and more!
The dramedy follows Keef Knight (played by Lamorne Morris) – a Black cartoonist in San Francisco who is on the verge of mainstream success. He prides himself on 'keeping it light' and shies away from taking controversial stances. However, everything changes when he gets attacked by a police officer. It’s a comedy about a Black man’s racial awakening that serves as the perfect water cooler conversation that could be had with your friends – black, white, liberal, conservative, and everything in between.
YBF correspondent James Terrell got the chance to chop it up with “WOKE” stars Lamorne Morris, Sasheer Zamata and T. Murph where they talked about the relevancy of the show, working with big names - such as Cedric The Entertainer & Eddie Griffin – why Dave Chappelle is goals and being WOKE.
“It’s surreal. It’s crazy because they say it takes 10 years to become an overnight sensation. August 4th was my 10th year actually just stepping out on faith and doing stand-up comedy. Then you look at September 9, 2020 and I’m starring in a sitcom on Hulu. This is insane!,” T. Murph told TheYBF.com.
