In addition to his fan-favorite character Ashy Larry, he’s performed (as himself) on Def Comedy Jam, It’s Showtime at the Apollo, ComicView and on tour with Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock. Donnell’s stand-up special A New Day is his latest laugh-out-loud appearance on Netflix, following The Degenerates and Snoop Dogg’s F*cn Around Comedy Special.

Donnell’s debut stand-up special A New Day premiered this past February on Netflix - The special was produced by Dave Chappelle which was only 1 of 4 specials Dave is producing for the network.
