Dangerously Delicious (Comedy Central, 2012) by Aziz Ansari


Although I felt his debut was a bit stronger, Aziz Ansari's latest offering, Dangerously Delicious, does not disappoint.  He sounds more confident on this album which is great, but so much so at times that he comes across cocky.  However, those moments are few and far between.  For me, the best bit on the album is where he brings the audience up to speed on his cousin Harris and talks about his college essay.  Ansari also tells a funny anecdote about 50 Cent and a grapefruit soda.  His comedic timing and delivery are excellent, and that makes his subject transitions very easy.  Aziz continues to prove himself a gifted performer on television, the big screen, and on record.  Overall, Dangerously Delicious serves as another great addition to the body of work of one of the most promising comics to emerge on the scene in recent years.
