More quotes by Reggie Watts

Not necessarily in the beginning, thinking I would have a career in comedy, but I was always interested in making people laugh.
Reggie Watts
I always did music, but music is an easier thing for me. Making videos and doing comedy things was more of a challenge, so I was more interested in that. Music is a little bit more automatic.
