For the very first episode of My Favorite Lyrics, Devon kicks things off with one of his funniest friends and favorite creative partners: stand-up comedian (and debatably gifted vocalist) Alex English.

In this episode, Alex breaks down why R&B is “straight people’s business,” passionately defends bisexual king Frank Ocean, and shares his hot take on why nostalgia needs to be stopped — immediately.

My Favorite Lyrics is hosted by Devon Walker and produced by Disco Nap.

This episode's guest, Alex English, is a stand-up comedian and three-time Emmy nominated writer for his work on Saturday Night Live. He was recently featured on "Colin Jost & Michael Che Present: New York After Dark" on Peacock and has made appearances on "Inside Amy Schumer," "That Damn Michael Che," and "Pause with Sam Jay." You can see Alex perform at comedy clubs across the country and is a regular performer at the Comedy Cellar in New York City. He also co-hosts "DAD" - a standup comedy show at the Freehand Hotel with Devon Walker & Gary Richardson.
