UPIKE LIVE Comedy Series - Azeem

Holistic Healer Through Humor. For nearly twenty years, Azeem’s comedy has brought laughter to millions of people worldwide. Whether across the stage, colleges, corporate events, or religious functions, the result is always the same: drop-dead funny. Azeem was the recipient of the MPAC Image Award for his stand-up performance on the critically acclaimed Allah Made Me Funny: Official Muslim Comedy Tour, which provided an opportunity for a healthy dialogue between Muslims and non-Muslims, drawing the attention of The Daily Show with/ Jon Stewart. Many in the media describe Azeem’s humor as “conscious comedy”. His ability to intertwine touchy subjects in a politically correct society with charismatic candor, makes him sought out the world over.

Azeem, a native of St. Louis, Missouri, began his comedy career in 1999 at the age of 26 while working at a rehabilitation center for persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In 2005, Azeem made his network television debut on “Comic View”, which brought him to the attention of many clubs and colleges throughout the United States.
