Ranked by Comedy Central as one of the top 100 standup comedians of all time, Sinbad has built a loyal following by taking audiences' painful trials or embarrassing tribulations of day-by-day life and turning them in to comedy in his typical "hit 'em in the face" style. Being the son of a preacher, Sinbad decided to keep his comedy clean after his father attended one of his early performances.

Sinbad's most recent standup special aired on Comedy Central, Sinbad: Make Me Want to Holla, in June. He had several highly-rated HBO comedy specials include Brain Damaged, Afros & Bellbottoms, Son of a Preacher Man and Nuthin' But The Funk. His annual HBO music concert series Sinbad's 70's Soul Music Festival received the NAACP Image Award consecutively for two years for Most Outstanding Variety Series/Special. Sinbad has appeared in movies like Jingle All the Way, Houseguest and Necessary Roughness. He has starred in the television sitcom A Different World, as well as his own series, The Sinbad Show.
