Summary: It was ok
Review: Ced gives his take on the entertainment industry, race relations, and growing up. Most of the material, you can catch in his stand up comedy routine. I throught the book was good, for the most point, but at times I think he did too many ... of a lot of his topic, but if you like his stand up routines, you will like the book.

Summary: Ceddy's off tha chain!
Review: Cedric's book is the bomb! I laughed on almost every page when he talked about barber shops, Jesse Jackson, the ghetto olympics, Church's chicken, toasting the boogie with P-Funk, and all that. The parts about him growing up were laughs, and it shows what it takes to make it and be a star.

Summary: Disappointed, but I should have known better...
Review: First let me say that I have always been a C.the E. fan. I love his work. I've been watching him since the early 90's. He's hillarious. I'm really happy that he's found success in his career.BUT... this book is not good. It's pretty poorly written and really isn't that funny. I think I laughed out loud once. Maybe it's hard for me to make it sound funny as I read it. I'm certain that I'd laugh at things written in the book if the author were saying them in person. I bought it to support the brother and sort of show that WE do read. I should have saved my money. Cedric the Entertainer is a comedic entertainer, not a writer.

Summary: A cute, humorous read
Review: I received this book as a belated birthday gift from a friend. She and I have this running thing where we start off our gripes with the phrase "Look, I am a grown a$$ woman," so this was the perfect gift for me. This book is semi-autobiographical as Ced intersperses his memories with bits from his comedy routines. Although I have heard all of the old jokes before, I still got a kick out of reading them in this book. I'm younger than Cedric, but I can relate to getting older and casting off certain behaviors that are a lot less cute once you turn 30. The way he figures it, being a grown a$$ man isn't just a catchphrase, it's a perspective. And I agree. This book is basically an attempt to capitalize off of the success of "The Kings of Comedy" and doesn't really offer anything new or profound. Still, it's a pleasant diversion for those times when you just want to relax. I enjoyed his description of how he made his reputation as a claims adjuster at State Farm because he could speak Negro and regular english. This meant that he got all the difficult cases that no one else wanted to touch -- the Black folks and the people with expensive cars. Occasionally, he got the Black folks with the expensive cars, the double whammy! There is also plenty of nostalgia as Cedric reminisces about classic music: "Black folks used to have music that made you want to be nice to people," and growing up back in the day. I always wondered how he got his stage name and he explains that a poet, singer and dancer, he objected to being introduced simply as "the next comedian." So an emcee began calling him Cedric The Entertainer, and it stuck. This book is a quick read, and you can probably finish it in a few hours if you have a block of uninterrupted time. I mostly read it on the train, and I am sure that people were looking at me funny when I began laughing out loud when I got to this line about the size of the poultry at Church's Chicken. Cedric is definitely an entertainer.
