Ali Siddiq

Ali Siddiq, one of the world’s most respected and talked about comedians, finally makes it to Europe!
Vulture calls Ali Siddiq “Stand-up comedy’s most prolific storyteller” but audiences simply call him one of the best to ever do it.
From Houston, Texas, Ali developed his unmistakable voice in one of the most unlikely places, behind the walls of incarceration, where storytelling was survival, currency and community. Today, that same voice has made him one of the most watched, respected and consistently viral comedians in the world. His comedy is matchless, his storytelling unparalleled and he will knock you off your feet and have you roll the isles with laughter at the same time.
Now visiting Europe for the first time in his career, Rotterdam audiences will have the unique opportunity to experience this absolute comedy phenomenon firsthand.

Ali is the first comedian in history to release a four-part stand-up series, THE DOMINO
EFFECT 1–4, a storytelling saga that has amassed over 50 million views and cemented his
reputation as a master craftsman of narrative comedy. Each chapter became a cultural event,
landing Ali among the top-viewed comedians on YouTube year after year.
His momentum has only accelerated. In 2025 alone, Ali released three hit specials and executive-
produced a fourth:
• MY TWO SONS (12M+ views) – NAACP Award Nominee
• RUGGED (7M+ views)
• MONDAYS (3M views)
• Marcus D. Wiley: Marriage is Major Surgery (4M+ views)

His 2022 breakout, THE DOMINO EFFECT, remains one of the top 5 most-watched comedy
specials of the year with more than 18 million views. The sequels — LOSS, FIRST DAY OF
SCHOOL, and PINS & NEEDLES — quickly followed, each reaching millions within weeks
and proving Ali’s status as the internet’s most unstoppable comedian-storyteller.

Fans first met Ali on DEF COMEDY JAM, Live From Gotham, and Comedy Central’s #1
Comic to Watch list. His legendary story “Mexicans Got On Boots” on This Is Not Happening
(16M+ views) remains one of the most iconic comedy stories ever told. Comedy Central later
sent him back inside a Texas jail to film It’s Bigger Than These Bars, now over 4M views.

Ali’s reach extends far beyond the stage — he has been featured on The Joe Rogan Experience,
Club Shay Shay, 85 South, The Breakfast Club, Kill Tony, VladTV, Your Mom’s House, Good
Morning America, and dozens of other top shows and podcasts, making him one of the most
recognized and requested voices in comedy today.

With unmatched authenticity, unforgettable stories, and a style rooted in truth, resilience, and
humor, Ali Siddiq has become the greatest storyteller of his generation — and one of the most
influential comedians in the world.
