About the Artist:
Ever since New York native Aries Spears was 14, he's been a force to be reckoned with in comedy. His quick wit, charisma and ferociously aggressive style of comedy have earned him critical acclaim, high accolades, and above all, a busy schedule. From being a regular on Fox’s Mad TV, starring in feature films, appearing on a number of national talk shows, and continually touring the country where he continually sells out each city, Aries’ talents are widespread as he just passed the 3 million spins played on Pandora and his podcast is one of the "Musts" in the US.
This past summer, Aries guest starred in CNN’s “See It Loud” new summer series on the history of Black Television which was one of their hit docuseries of 2023, alongside Amanda Seales, Da’Vinchi, Debbie Allen, Deon Cole, Desus &amp; Mero, Gabrielle Union, Jimmie Walker, Judge Greg Mathis, Kevin Frazier, Loni Love, Lynn Whitfield, Mo’Nique, Tatyana Ali, Tisha Campbell, Vivica A. Fox and more.<a href="https://tinyurl.com/AriesCNNSeeItLoud" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/AriesCNNSe...</a>
As a principal cast member on Mad TV, Aries brought a fresh style to the already edgy program from the third through the tenth season. Some of the recurring characters include: Belma Buttons, Bill Cosby, Jesse Jackson, Mike Tyson, Walter (Crackheads), Reggie(Erascist), Dollar Bill Montgomery, Shaquille O'Neal, The Klumps, Michael Jackson, Sisqo, Evander Holyfield, El Diablo Negro and more. Aries also boasts a number of uproarious impersonations on the show that include James Brown, Al Pacino, and his childhood idol Eddie Murphy. The Aries-branded sketch “Talkin’ American” was Mad TV’s most popular bit. Aries has also found success in feature films. At 17, after being spotted in a comedy club, Aries landed a part in the movie Home of Angels which eventually led to a starring role alongside John Leguizamo in The Pest followed by the notable role as Cuba Gooding, Jr.’s brother in Jerry Maguire. He is presently developing a feature project based on an original character that he created on Mad TV, as well as a thriller about a young black man immersed in hip-hop culture. Aries has made appearances on talk shows including: Loveline, Vibe, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Soul Train and Late Friday. He has also lent his voice to an animated character on C-Bear and Jamal and had a recurring stint on Fox’s The Best Damn Sports Show Period, where he created some of the show’s funniest characters during his time there.
Aries maintains a strong connection to his African roots and is involved in many charitable events, including a number of organizations that help abused women. He feels blessed to have been able to achieve everything that he has, but he in no way intends on stopping there.

If you are the kind of person who is prized wherever you go, you know that being valuable can mean being coveted, and certain landlords like trying harder to find the most qualified tenant. Prerequisites: &#10625;	High credit score of at least 680 or 3 prominent phone referrals so I can check character backgrounds. &#10625;	Show reliability through your well-established rental history or assumption of key responsibilities &#10625;	Willing to answer to minor requests like checking safeguards on house or transferring a car Nuances: &#10625;		I am pricing this for the hard-to-find tenant, one who meets the requirements easily and is motivated to become as an "anchor" tenant to enjoy the full value of the lease &#10625;		You will feel like you are a stakeholder in the property even though you have a different from one giving you title. Bonuses: &#10625;	Discounted Rent &#10625;	Option for primary use of an insured vehicle &#10625;	Internet service &#10625;	Easy in-and-out logistics thanks to a strong local road system &#10625;	Great artist hideaway and environment for getting close to natural element of sunlight and air. Better control of noise and behaviors &#10625;	A place to be your most honest self. There is a freeway ramp just off my west side street, and many of the secondary routes leading here are nearly as good as the primary routes.	The upstairs appeal partly comes from the multiple exposures to southern and western daylight. There is a full size western exposure porch, and opporunities for cool breezes on hot days with open doors. These are features the downstairs does not have. You rarely face problem neighbors who drag down everyone's enjoyment of the property if we live together in a mutually conducive environment, what a duplex setting should be like. If you feel like this is the choice for you, send/submit your response and allow about 4 days for a response to clear up some of the finer points.
