A longtime comedian, Jones first gained national attention following two television appearances on HBO's Def Comedy Jam in the early nineties.
Known for his clean comedy routines, Jones became so recognizable for his use of the word "hamburger" at the end of jokes or as a substitution for profanity, often stretching the syllables, that he soon adopted it as his stage name.
Although the origins of this shtick have not been well documented, a brief biography by his booking agent claims: Comedian Hamburger is on a mission to let people know they are not living right.
[1]Although he is said to have performed on Showtime at the Apollo, BET's Teen Summit, ComicView, and a few others following his Def Comedy Jam sets,[2] Jones has rarely been seen on television since, except for two appearances on Byron Allen's Comics Unleashed seven years apart, nearly a decade after his last performance on Def Comedy Jam.
[4] Over the years, Jones befriended numerous comedians, including Uncle Jimmy Mack, who he claimed had contacted him after beginning a "relationship with the Lord".
