About Shang<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shang Forbes, a transplanted New Yorker who’s carefully nurtured evolution from stand-up comedy to Socio-Political Edgy satire gives heavy flight to the spoken & outspoken word. He has come a long way from the boroughs of New York. Originally from Brooklyn, this Carnegie Mellon University graduate & aspiring illustrator began his comedy career on a dare. A friend bet him $50 to take the stage during open-mike night at a local comedy club. Shang Forbes won the bet, caught the comedy bug & quickly became an underground favorite with his dark, avant-garde, socio-political style. With one of the most memorable performances of 1995 on HBO’s “Def Comedy Jam” & Two half-hour specials on BET’s “Comic View Grand Stand,” Shang Forbes has cemented his position as one of the brightest African-American funnymen in the business. <\/span><\/p>\n

His passionate & explosive humor has also been showcased on “Politically Incorrect,” “NBC’s Comedy Showcase,” Comedy Central’s “Comedy Cabaña” & was also selected as one of the “Best of the Fest” on HBO’s Aspen Comedy Festival Special. In addition, Shang Forbes has displayed impressive comedic acting ability as a series regular on the late-night laughfest “The Newz,” & has guest starred on episodes of “The Jamie Foxx Show” “The Parenthood,” & was co-host on “Russell Simmons One-World Music Beat.” Most recently, Shang Forbes worked on a panel with MTV’s “Choose or Lose” & also is a regular commentator on Air America Radio’s “Unfiltered”. <\/span><\/p>\n

The debut of Shang Forbes’ first major release CD entitled “SHANGRY!!” on Uproar Records was just released in all major music stores to rave reviews. Shang Forbes will also be featured in several upcoming international televised shows in Japan, Ireland, London & Amsterdam. Shang Forbes will continue to rise to the top of the comedy ranks with high-profile acting & televised stand up & personal appearances this year.<\/span><\/p>\n
