Malik S

Bio:

Malik S. is a Haitian-American stand-up sensation, actor, and writer hailing from the real Miami – not the glitzy South Beach version. This triple threat has found success on the stage, on the page, and on the screen. In addition to his thriving stand-up career, Malik currently wears multiple hats as both a writer and actor on CBS’s top-rated series, The Neighborhood, a role he’s held with distinction for the past five years. But that’s not all – he’s had memorable guest spots on Black-ish, Born Again Virgin, Zoe Ever After, The Comedy Get Down, and even popped up in Netflix’s hit film You People.His comedy journey took off on BET’s seminal stand-up series, Comic View, where he honed his craft for a whopping five seasons. From there, he made the rounds on HBO’s Def Comedy Jam, Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham, NBC’s Last Comic Standing, The Bad Boys of Comedy and ABC’s Comics Unleashed. All that hard work and dedication led Malik to score his own half-hour special on Comedy Central, titled Kevin Hart Presents: The Next Level – Malik S.
Growing up in a big Miami family, Malik wielded humor as his secret weapon against older siblings. It’s like he was training for a comedy marathon from day one. Those early sessions became the foundation for his style of comedy which focuses on his POV of everyday life. 
And Malik is not just a funny guy, he’s also a scholar having attended Florida Memorial University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English.  After a brief stint teaching middle school, he decided to trade lesson plans for punchlines and pursue comedy full-time.
