Zitat des Tages von Daveed Diggs:

If you do enough rap shows, you get a pretty good sense of an audience. You start to develop this sense of what a feeling of a room or a group is.

I warm up a lot harder for a Clipping show than I ever did for 'Hamilton.'

Daveed Diggs

The fact that I got to do the 'Hamilton' BET Cypher is a totally crazy thing because I've watched the BET Cyphers since it started. I've seen every one. I study them. Because I'm a rapper. It's what you do.

I majored in theater. I did plays. But musicals were not my thing.

It wasn't until I got out in the world and started worked professionally when I realized that the people I admired were the ones who had taken the little snippets of what they learned that worked for them - and strung them together in their own technique.

Daveed Diggs

I can jump really high, yeah. I'm proud of that. I'll take it.

Daveed Diggs

I'm aware that not everybody gets that feeling of ease walking through the world that I have.

Daveed Diggs

I have this thing. I can rap really fast. I can rap really, really fast. It's a thing I'm good at and I've trained myself to do; it's a thing I do in the Bay Area.

Daveed Diggs

I think people understand I'm not actually the real Thomas Jefferson.

Daveed Diggs

I have a recognizable silhouette.

Daveed Diggs

I felt so loved and taken care of, and that's a huge part of the reason I'm able to do what I do.
