Working with Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr. (and sister Kim Wayans, who directed the episode) was a breeze, he tells TV Insider, as is all the time the case with this household of stars. Watching his older brother work reminded Marlon that Damon Sr. is a comedic “genius” and “the quintessential artist” of the Wayans household.

    “My brother Damon might be my all-time favourite artist,” Marlon shares. “Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Damon. I like Jim Carrey. I like Robin Williams. I like guys that may do all of it. And my brother Damon is, to me, the quintessential artist within the household as a result of he’s fearless in discovering all of the completely different ranges of ability that he has. And that takes time and takes vitality. Watching Damon do standup impressed me to do standup. Truly, it intimidated me to do standup for a very long time. I used to be like, I’m not going to be that good. But it surely’s the very factor that made me go, what? Let me go on this stage and work at it, and I don’t wish to be that good. I wish to be nearly as good as I will be. And we’ll see the place that goes.”

    The youngest of the ten Wayans siblings, Marlon has extra related experiences to nephew Damon Jr. They each bought well-known at a youthful age than their siblings and mother or father due to household’s skilled success that preceded their very own.

    “That simply means you need to speed up on getting the products,” Marlon explains. “It places extra stress on you, and stress makes for the perfect diamonds. So, it allowed us to actually perceive the legacy that we had been part of and the way a lot work we needed to in.”

    A lot of the Wayans have their very own standup careers. Marlon thinks standup is the place Damon Sr.’s “genius” actually shines.

    “In relation to standup, it’s not simply the energy of his standup. It’s not simply concerning the comedy,” the White Chicks alum continues. “For those who have a look at Damon, when he’s on a stage, he’s not simply doing standup. He’s doing sketch, he’s doing monologues, he’s creating characters. He’s telling you the joke, and he’s exhibiting you the joke. He’s animating it. He’s performing on that stage. He makes use of the stage to be a fantastic author. He makes use of the stage to permit himself to be comfy sufficient to be free sufficient to create. And so him not simply do comedy, it’s extra than simply comedy. And I try to be that as a comic. That’s how he’s influenced me and a complete lot of others.”
