Chris Rock's first album, released a few years prior to his breakthrough LP Roll With the New, is an album that shows a lot of potential. The jokes aren't quite as polished, but signs of the intelligent comedian that would soon emerge are certainly there. On race: "Being white is like always having five dollars in your pocket and being black is like always being 50 cents short." On minimum wage: "That's just a way of saying, 'I'd pay you less if I could.' And with taxes, that's like kicking Tuesday and Wednesday in the ass."
