Taking a break from being 1/3 of the comedy supergroup The 85 South Show, Chico Bean travels to New York City and stops by Power 105’s The Breakfast Club to discuss the new tour, his new comedy special, love life as a high-profiled comedian, and make a few jokes at the expense of DJ Envy.

Chico Bean: Hailing from Washington D.C. and known as ⅓ of the 85 South Show, Chico Bean knows how to deliver a well-executed joke. Born Anthony Bean, Chico Bean has the uncanny ability to memorize almost instantly the words to an old song or create a new quirky jingle on the spot. Chico contributed his skills to the long-running sketch-variety television show “Wild N’ Out” hosted weekly by Nick Cannon and helped catapult the show to high viewership. Other credits include the Freestyle Funny Comedy Show and MTV 2’s Guy Court. More recently, you can see Chico Bean on set with the entire 85 South Show cracking jokes and speaking on topics that matter. Writing and acting are other talents that Chico Bean showcases throughout his career, and more recently on E! His myriad of skills and “comedic improvisation” is what keeps the fans coming back for more. If you are looking for a fresh, funny, relative, and stand out comedian, look no further than Chico Bean.
