Comedian Jevon M Johnson
from Red Carpet Round Table Hosted by Red Carpet Round Table
Jevon M Johnson is a stand-up comedian, writer and actor from Brooklyn, NY. Jevon started doing stand-up after having a conversation with his daughter about going after whatever she wanted in life. It was at that moment, that he was being a hypocrite, because he was not pursuing his own dreams. Jevon has always been inspired by the comedy legend, Martin Lawrence. Much like Lawrence, his style of comedy is very witty, edgy and electric. It is so energetic, that he coined it “High Voltage” Comedy. Throughout his career he has opened up for Tommy Davidson, Donnell Rollins, Bill Bellamy and Michael Blackson, to name a few. One of Jevon’s biggest opportunities came in 2021 when he was selected to host a comedy show in London for the Miami Dolphins, to entertain players and staff while they were in the UK for their game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jevon is an actor as well. He has appeared on television shows on Starz, Apple TV and Amazon Prime. He has also appeared in a number of Independent Films and has written on multiple Indie projects. In a landscape where a lot of comics lack fresh ideas, creativity and a relatable point of view, Jevon prides himself in bringing funny to the stage that is always relevant and engaging. Growing up in a tough neighborhood in Brooklyn in the 90’s and now being a husband and father in his forties, he feels he is the comedic voice for cool, black Dads everywhere.
