Nigerian comedian, Kenny Blaq (pictured) says his father made him a better comedian
Nigerian comedian, Kenny Blaq, has shared how his father served as a source of inspiration in his career.
In an interview on “With Chude” shared on social media on July 24, 2025, Kenny Blaq noted that he became better in comedy due to his father’s constant motivation.
Blaq explained that his father made him share jokes in front of his friends, adding that the experiences helped him hone his craft professionally.
“My dad made me get better in comedy. My dad would just look at him and invite his friends to the house, and tell me to perform for them. He would tell me to crack jokes. They were laughing, but he wasn’t until I started cracking jokes about him snoring,” he said.
The Nigerian comedian further noted that his father still checks up on him to find out the kind of jokes he is scripting for his shows.
“To date, my dad would ask me about the material I am working on. He is a big fan of music, and all of the music I know today is because of my dad.
“He inspires my music, and I still share a good relationship. I visit my dad almost every day when I get the chance. I would sit down with him and we would play music,” he added.
