What is known

Documented. Every row names the source it rests on.

Ali Siddiq served six years of a fifteen-year sentence for trafficking cocaine, and began performing after his release. [abc13.com] He found his influences on records while inside. [abc13.com] He built the career from Houston on purpose, declining to move to a comedy capital. [abc13.com] He has been performing for nearly three decades. [www.whqr.org] He works in stories rather than written jokes. [www.whqr.org] He resists having the prison years stand for the whole career, noting they were not public knowledge until 2015. [www.whqr.org]

Serving six years on a 15-year sentence for trafficking cocaine not only provided him stories for his stand-up, but also inspiration to get out. [abc13.com]
I found a Richard Pryor album and Carol Burnett and Rodney Dangerfield and for some strange reason, Don Rickles. [abc13.com]
I've been doing stand up for 28 years. [www.whqr.org]
I don't write jokes, so I just have the stories so I don't have to, I don't really have to write a joke. [www.whqr.org]
nobody even knew I was incarcerated until 2015 and they try to make that my whole, my whole career [www.whqr.org]
