Margaret Cho

“I want to create a new genre of music that is hilarious but also seriously good, so I turned to some of my music heroes to help me out,” says Margaret Cho in reference to her forthcoming album Cho-Dependent. “I have wanted to make an album like this forever. I love comedy music!” The lyrics on Cho Dependent, which tackle issues of sex, drugs, rock & roll – and lice, may be laugh-inducing, but Cho has made no compromises when it comes to the quality of the songwriting and production. After “My Puss,” a hilarious rap parody Cho recorded impromptu-style with friends, became a surprise YouTube hit, Cho began to integrate more comedy music into her live stand-up shows. With Cho Dependent, her first comedy music album, Cho got a chance to hone her craft with some of the top names in the business.

When masturbation goes wrong (01:27)
Robert Hawkins

Robert Hawkins just makes me die laughing. I laugh so hard at this bit I can't even breathe. There is something about the way he is yelling about masturbation - it's just so bizarre and perfectly him. He is one of my favorites and has been for a long, long time.

Speaking out loud (01:04)
Tig Notaro

After I saw Tig do this bit, I could not stop laughing about it for several weeks after. It's one of those jokes that stays with you forever. Sometimes I still think about it and cannot stop laughing.
