Ali Siddiq
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Ali Siddiq is a stand-up comedian and public speaker from Houston, TX. Ali’s unique stand-up style began behind the walls of incarceration, an incubator for interesting experiences and good stories. In 2022, Ali released two new hour specials… "The Domino Effect" on YouTube and "Unprotected Sets" on EPIX. "The Domino Effect" has over 9 million views, ranking it in last year's top 5 most-watched comedy specials.
People received their first taste of Ali Siddiq when he appeared on HBO's Def Comedy Jam and Live From Gotham, and in 2013 he was named Comedy Central's "#1 Comic to Watch". In 2014, Ali impressed comedy enthusiasts by displaying his ability to captivate an audience with his "Mexicans Got On Boots" tale, descriptive storytelling, with over 13 million views, of a prison riot on This, is not Happening, the first of three appearances. His stories continued with his half hour special, which premiered on Comedy Central in the Fall of 2016. Immediately following the premier of that special, Comedy Central offered Ali an hour-special where he performed for inmates live in a Texas jail, sending Ali back to where it all started.
