Paul Mooney came into his own with his controversial and critically acclaimed, debut comedy album "Race," for which he received a Grammy nomination. His album "Master Piece" continues to stir anger, laughter, and thought. "I always drop in some history" he explains "It's knowledge. There's always a message in my comedy and you may not get it that night – it's like time bombs. It'll get you a week later. You'll understand."
