Nick Cannon & Wild 'N Out coming to Oakland Arena

Thank you, Devin. All right, Wild 'N Out is bringing freestyle hip-hop and improv comedy to the East Bay. The show's latest tour, known as Wild 'N Out Live, The Next Generation, opens tomorrow night at the Oakland Arena. And joining us now live is the show's creator and host, actor, rapper, comedian, and so much more, Mr. Nick Cannon. Good morning. How you doing? Good morning, man. I'm blessed. I'm excited and preparing for El Nino as well. I'm just seeing what's going on. Nice. No, you're tuned in. Hopefully you'll be prepared as we will. You coffeed up and ready for this interview? Oh, absolutely. I'm a green tea guy. All right. All right. I'll take notes eventually. Where are you? Are you in L.A. right now? Yeah, but I was at the Niners game yesterday. I've just been obviously between the tour and a lot of the promo, but I was definitely, you know, in the Bay yesterday and obviously will be in Oakland tomorrow. Okay, so this is a good segue. Let's talk a bit about what folks can anticipate with Wild 'N Out here at the Oakland Arena tomorrow night. I mean, so much fun. If you're a fan of the show, if you know what we do, I mean, it's improv comedy. Some of the best comedians of our generation have come out of Wild 'N Out. Everyone from Kevin Hart to Katt Williams and even, you know, our newer generation, which we're talking about now. It's like the DC Young Fly, the Justina Valentine's. And then we're also given the opportunity to local comedians from the Bay Area to come join us on stage. Let me make sure I heard you right. So local comedians here in the Bay Area can come out and join Wild 'N Out on tour with you tomorrow. Yeah, we discovering the next generation. And in that, obviously, it's the Bay Area versus Wild 'N Out. So Too Short is going to be the team captain of the Bay Area team, and we're bringing all our cast members in. Sexyy Red's performing. It's going to be an amazing party. Man, I did not realize Too Short was a part of this, and it actually makes a lot of sense. So do me a favor. Talk about folks that don't know much about Wild 'N Out. Let's get them to actually come down. How can we entice them to come check it out? I mean, all your favorite hip-hop artists from the Bay Area as well as all around will be there performing, and then all your favorite comedians. So it's improv comedy. It's some of the funniest games that we often see go viral. I mean, Wild N' Out's been on air for over two decades. So it's a family show that spans generations. So it's like, come out, bring the whole family. And here's a clip of this right here. You know, Justina Valentine is one of my favorites. I am going to ask you at some point to roast me if you have it in you. But I remember when Wildin' Out first came out, and it kind of changed the culture as far as music, as far as comedy, as far as black comedy, and as far as the venue. So I, for one, am really excited about this. Tell me a bit about what are some of your favorite aspects to Wildin' Out? I mean, the fact that it does have so much freedom. I mean, I like to always say Wild N' Out is probably one of the most progressive television shows of its time because you see people from all walks of life come together and, you know, we don't hold back. Exactly. Nobody's safe, but at the end of the day, we're all friends, we're all family. And to see people from all different walks of life having fun together, I mean, that's what you're going to see tomorrow night. So let's give folks details about tomorrow. Time, is there a cost, obviously? What can we expect? Yeah, tickets are online. Obviously, you can get them from wildandouttour.com. It's selling out fast, so we still got a few left. But, you know, doors are opening at 6 and pull up to the arena and we're partying all night. Okay, I did ask viewers this morning, I said, if you had a question for Nick, what would it be? And VeganSportiva asked me, she wants to know, how are you able to do everything? How do you have so much energy because you're able to do 17 things at once? Yeah, you know what? I used to say time management, but the real answer now is energy management because whatever you have a passion for, if you put the energy towards it, you'll find the time. So I love what I do. I love making people laugh. I love making people smile. So, this is my thing. So, you might see me on Mad Singer. You might see me on Wildin' Out. You might see me with my kids. But at the end of the day, I'm there to bring all of the energy. Can I see you roast me real quick? I mean, come on. You've got a lot to work with here. Come on, man. You've got to come to the show. Okay. You're too well-dressed right now. You look too good. I can't take that. That's fine. So, if I come to the show, you promise you'll roast me? I promise. He's going to get out of his chair. You're hilarious. So nice chatting with you. I saw online you are really nice in person, and it reflects here. So a big thanks to you. I'm going to send you off now. And while I'm out, it's at the Oakland Arena tomorrow night. Tickets are still available, as you heard. And follow Nick Cannon on social media. Big thanks to him and a big thanks to you. All right, Nick. See you tomorrow. Stick with us, folks. We've got much more coming up.
