Hart's comedy tours began in 2009 with his act titled I'm a Grown Little Man, followed by Seriously Funny in 2010, Laugh at My Pain in 2011, and Let Me Explain in 2013, the later two of which were also released as features in movie theaters. "But right now this is a book that is being written." "Because of what I do, it has to be an open book," he has said. After an early period of attempting to imitate comedians like Chris Tucker, he found his own rhythm by delving into his insecurities and life experiences. It took time for Hart to develop a unique comedic style. After those initial unsuccessful shows, Hart began entering comedy competitions throughout Massachusetts and audience receptions of his performances eventually improved. His career suffered a slow start, as he was booed off stage several times, once even having a piece of chicken thrown at him. Hart's first gig was at The Laff House in Philadelphia under the name of Lil Kev, which did not go well. He began pursuing a career in stand-up comedy after performing at an amateur night at a club in Philadelphia. He then moved to Brockton, Massachusetts, and found work as a shoe salesman.
His father, Henry Witherspoon, a cocaine addict, was in and out of jail throughout most of Kevin's childhood, and Kevin used humor as a way to cope with his troubled family life.Īfter graduating from George Washington High School, Hart briefly attended the Community College of Philadelphia and moved to New York City. Hart was raised in a single-parent household by his mother, Nancy Hart, who was a systems analyst for the Office of Student Registration and Financial Services at University of Pennsylvania.
