On a recent episode of the Whats Funny Today Show, Taneshia Rice, better known as Just Nesh, discussed her journey from Chicago’s comedy clubs to producing her one-hour special, Self Served. Her candid talk showcased what fans adore: sharp timing and authentic storytelling, rooted in her hometown’s rhythms.
Just Nesh’s fearless storytelling, marked by cultural observations and relationship insights, resonates with audiences. This October 1st, she brings that style to the Houston Improv.
Rice gained national attention on Kevin Hart Presents: Hart of the City, turning urban tales into relatable humor. Her appearances on The Next Level and All Def Comedy cemented her reputation for high-energy performances. But it’s in live settings, like the upcoming 7:30 PM show in Houston, where her energy captivates.
