About
Funny, smart, fresh, and magnetic, Neko White is a star. A comedian born and raised in Harlem, Neko has brought his unique perspective and sharp comedy from New York to international audiences. Beginning his career at just fourteen years old, the then high school freshman was sitting in class when a teacher asked, “Does anyone have a talent?” Something in Neko’s mind said, “Go tell jokes!“ He went up in front of his classmates and it worked. And, as they say, the rest is history.
As a stand-up, Neko has been featured on Netflix’s "Pete Davidson Presents: The Best Friends," Cracked Comedy Club, TruTV’s "Laff Tracks," AXS TV’s "Gotham Comedy Live," STARZ’s "New York’s Funniest," and Kevin Hart’s LOL Network. He was named one of the "New Faces" in the Just For Laughs Festival, performed in Netflix is a Joke Festival, and won Carolines’ prestigious March Madness competition. Neko released a comedy album titled "Marscellus," then produced one of the most original filmed specials in recent memory with his self-released "Dark Out." Shot with no audience, a pitch-black background, and recorded with an old-fashioned microphone, Neko’s special received critical acclaim. One publication said "Dark Out" made Neko one of the “innovators changing comedy.” Neko also self-produced his first hour special, "Neko White: Introducing Me.” He was the subject of the award-winning documentary, “One Mic.”
Neko is an accomplished television personality. He hosted Vice News’ popular series, "How To Be A Person" and has been a regular guest on MTV2’s "Hip Hop Hollywood Squares" and Comedy Central’s "Dark Humor." Neko made his film acting debut in the movie, "Midlife."
