Since his big-screen breakthrough as Day-Day in 2000's Next Friday (and the sequel Friday After Next), this stand-up comedian, actor, rapper and producer has generated a huge amount of buzz within the entertainment industry. The winner of an NAACP Image Award for his role in Jumping the Broom, Epps has been seen in major releases, including The Fighting Temptations; All About the Benjamins; Hancock; The Janky Promoters (with Ice Cube), Sparkle (with Whitney Houston) and Next Day Air (with Mos Def). Epps was first recognized as a talent by a national audience in 1995, when he appeared on the Def Comedy Jam Tour and performed on HBO's Def Comedy Jambroadcasts. His recent stand-up specials, Mike Epps: Underrated and Never Faded and Mike Epps Presents ..., have both aired on Showtime. Epps also has released his first comedy rap album, Funny Bidness: Da Album, featuring Snoop Dogg, Kid Rock and Slim Thug.
