Slink Johnson

Gerald "Slink" Johnson has had a huge impact on black entertainment and pop culture with his unique portrayal of unforgettable characters. Born in Arkansas and raised in Southern California from the age of 10, Slink exploded onto the scene as an in-demand comedian, actor, and producer beginning in 2007 and has held role after role both as voice talent and live action actor ever since, including starring in Black Jesus (now in its third season) with the late legend Charlie Murphy. During the first season of Black Jesus, he was encouraged to pursue stand-up comedy by Murphy himself, and has since added that to his repertoire as well as hosting the weekly "Smoke Yours" show on Dash Radio and spearheading the SmokeYoursCrew cannabis lifestyle brand.

Slink has used his voice and comedic skills to portray characters at the highest level of authenticity, including as the star of Fuse TV's first animated comedy Sugar and Toys, a featured member of All Def Digital TV, and countless other shows including The Super Rumble Mix Show, the FXX series Chozen, Pariah, and many others.

He's lent his talents as a voice actor to creator Aaron McGruder's animated series The Boondocks as well as the best selling Grand Theft Auto gaming series as the hilarious Lamar Davis. Along with FX, Cartoon Network, and FUSE TV, Slink has also worked closely with BET Networks, appearing regularly on the hit game show Black Card Revoked and co-hosting the talk show Man Cave.
