Yeah, what's going on everybody
It's your man Chuck Creekmer, aka Jigsaw here at the BET Awards 2023 and we're here with
none other than C. King. What up? What's going on man? I'm blessed to be here, man
I'm a huge fan of yours, man. I mean, obviously it's the Denzel impersonation, man, but you are so funny and it never ever
ever gets old. I promise you. Yeah. So first of all, talk to me about how that came about
So my first impression was actually Dave Chappelle, but I started watching different different
comedians like Reggie Reg and Dean Edwards, Harry Spears, of course, Jay Pharoah, London Brown
I was watching all of those cats do Denzel impressions and I was like, man, I want to be able to do that too, because that Denzel hit different
You know what I'm saying? But once I started watching interviews and speeches of Denzel, I was like able to go
a little bit deeper and kind of like, you know, get to the essence of it
You know, because a lot of times people will say, you know, well, that sounds like an impression
of somebody else doing impression. But I say I want to sound more like him in general. OK
With the mannerisms. With the mannerisms. You got to do a couple of blinks
You got to do the lip. Not the lip. Yo, I love Denzel, but the lip be there
The lip. If you don't do the lip because the lip is essential. Shout out to Denzel
I love Denzel. And by the way, I had a very viral moment with Denzel
I don't know if you saw it, but a few years ago at the Fences premiere, I ran him down
and I interviewed him for 30 seconds. And he says, you know, about being a man
And that went viral for me. So I'm looking for Denzel because I want to do a part two and talk to him about that
But, you know, he imparted so much wisdom in that short period
If you can't get Denzel to do it, I'm hoping that he may call me and say, hey, this is
what I want you to say. I want you to say it in my voice
And that's going to be an epic moment. You know what I'm saying? Right
And he might say something like true desire in the heart for anything good is God's proof
to you sent beforehand to indicate that it's already yours. That's real wisdom
That's something that he actually said. Like it's been times where I've had to like I've had to, you know, watch speeches and
interviews and I'm like, man, this really this man is cooking like his his mind and
how he moves and how he applies his knowledge to everyday living
You know what I'm saying? When he was talking about, you know, fences being so cultural, when he was talking about
you know, fake news and and how people like his mind is mentorship
His mind is mentorship for sure. Now, you're in the works on something with Denzel
Can you talk about it? Well, I can actually say that I'm not I'm not his official voiceover guy just yet, but
just recently, I don't know if that's going to be able to air this or not, but I'm going to say it because I'm happy about it
I just got called to do overdubs for Equalizer 3. So if you hear a point, if you're in the point where you're watching the movie, because I
know you're going to watch the movie. It's the first sequel that Denzel is every day. Denzel has never done a part two, part three to anything. OK
So I did a sequel to Equalizer, Equalizer 3. I got called into the studio to do overdubs
Let me tell you something. If somebody ever says that you're doing too much of one thing, never listen
There's a lane, but there's a specific lane for everybody. I do all types of stuff
I act, I sing, don't dance. But Impressions was such a lane for me that it created an open doors that I couldn't even fathom
Yeah, mastery is everything. Mastery. Yeah, mastery for sure. Master something. So talk about your work outside of Denzel Impressions
I just finished acting in this movie called Dope Kings. I'm actually working with an acting coach right now
Shout out to Tracy Moore. Hoping to get into some New York sitcoms or series, things like that
Actually putting together a one man show with the band right now
So I'm trying to utilize all the gifts. Denzel Impressions was just one of those things that happened to catapult me through many
doors, man. So I'm grateful to God for it, man. It's the only God that I'm here, bro
How was it working with Nick Cannon on Wildin' Out, and what jokes are y'all flying back
and forth? Oh, you already know. We're talking about Nick and his babies
As many babies as he has, that's how many seasons we gon' have
But that's a beautiful thing to see. He's confident in the children that he has
He's not afraid to be a father. He steps to the plate at home, and also on stage
I would say there are differences between bosses and leaders. Bosses just delegate, and that's it
Nick is a leader. He'll sit down in a pit and tell us, okay, try this, tweak this, do this, try that
I think that's great leadership. That's awesome leadership. I love Nick. Nick's a pioneer
Yeah, man. Can't nobody say nothing bad about Nick in my eyes
All right, man. Anything else you wanted to tell people? Thank y'all for tuning in to Culture's Biggest Night, man
Shout out to Busta, that's being honored tonight. Put your hands where my eyes can see
Great buckwildin' in the place to be. If you really want to party with me, let me see just what you got for me
Yo, salute, salute. Can we get a shout out? We got to do the shout out in Denzel
Yeah, for sure. We got to do the shout out. All right, shout out for all hip hop. What's going on, beloved
