The rising star weighs in on MLK, Jay-Z, the sadness behind Air Jordans, and more.

Jerrod Carmichael is on a bit of a tear lately. He gave a hilarious breakout performance in the movie Neighbors. His hit, groundbreaking sitcom that bears his name will soon return for a third season. And now he’s coming back to HBO for his second standup special, Jerrod Carmichael: 8.

Filmed before a live audience in New York City, the show features Jerrod's subversive, thought-provoking take on cultural norms. Through both his performance and his engagement with audience members during his act, Carmichael addresses a wide range of subjects, including climate change, supporting the troops, animal rights, being a good boyfriend, and his top four fears, as well as exploring larger themes like race, politics, love, and family.

Jerrod Carmichael: 8 premieres on TONIGHT at 10 p.m. on HBO.
