Event Description
Actor Gerald "Slink" Johnson has had a huge impact on black entertainment and pop culture with his unique portrayal of unforgettable characters like Black Jesus from the show of the same name and Lamar Davis from Grand Theft Auto V. Born in Arkansas and raised in Southern California from the age of 10, Slink exploded onto the scene as an in demand comedian, actor and producer beginning in 2007 and has held role after role both as voice talent and live action actor ever since, including starring in Black Jesus (now in its third season) with the late legend Charlie Murphy. During the first season of Black Jesus he was encouraged to pursue stand-up comedy by Murphy himself and has since added that to his list of sought-after talents as well as hosting the weekly "Smoke Yours" show on Dash Radio and spearheading the Smoke Yours Crew cannabis lifestyle brand.
Affectionately known as "Slink," he began his rise to superstardom as a successful hip hop artist before turning to comedy. Heralded for his quick wit and sharp humor, Slink has used his voice and comedic skills to portray characters at the highest level of authenticity, including as the star of Fuse TV's first animated comedy Sugar and Toys, a featured member of All Def Digital TV and countless other shows including The Super Rumble Mix Show, The FXX series Chozen, Pariah and many others.
Made possible by his undeniable star-power in acting and stand-up comedy, Slink has worked with notable industry producers Steve Harvey, Mike Clattenburg, Jody Hill, Danny McBride, John and Dave Chernin and numerous other comedic greats. He's lent his talents as a voice actor to creator Aaron McGruder's animated series The Boondocks as well as the bestselling Grand Theft Auto gaming franchise as the hilarious character Lamar Davis. Along with FX, Cartoon Network and FUSE TV, Slink has also worked closely with BET Networks, appearing regularly on the hit game show Black Card Revoked and co-hosting the talk show Man Cave executive produced by East 112th Street Productions. An artist in every sense, he also continues to perform for sold-out audiences across the country and is considered one of today's top comedians by IMDb. As his talent is recognized by a wider and wider audience both on stage and screen, it's guaranteed that Slink Johnson's exuberant personality will be entertaining the masses for years to come.
