Nick Cannon has done a lot in the entertainment business, from entertaining kids on Nickelodeon to hosting MTV’s “Wild ‘n Out,” to starring in films and now hosting NBC’s “America’s Got Talent.” Now, Cannon has gone back to his comedic roots by releasing his comedy DVD “Nick Cannon: Mr. Showbiz”

The DVD is another milestone for Cannon; it’s his first comedy special. According to the official synopsis:

“In his first-ever comedy special, the popular comic actor and musician reveals surprisingly edgy, hysterically honest tales of his failed attempts at being a gangster, his humble roots, marriage, fatherhood and his thoughts about the rapper Eminem. Shot at the Palms Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.”
