News Desk Oct. 20, 2017
Comedy Central Records announces the digital release of Solomon Georgio: Homonégro Superior on Friday, October 20. Born in the Sudan and now living and working in Los Angeles, Georgio burst into comedy with his own brand of indignant irreverence. He flawlessly intertwines biting social commentary with stories of his life as an openly gay African immigrant, and never more brilliantly so than on Homonégro Superior. Coinciding with Comedy Central Record's October 20 release of Homonégro Superior, Georgio's half-hour Comedy Central Stand-Up Presents... special will air the same night at 12:30 a.m. ET/PT.
