Elle Clay on Vashtie Kola. 2008
As you all know. My homie and my ace, Elle Clay, has been by my side for years…providing comic relief in any situation and clowning your girl along the way (see above). She’s also a natural Branding and Marketing wizard who always gives me the best life advice and work suggestions.
Anyways – I am extremely proud of her…especially today. A few years ago when I told her to pursue her natural talents of comedy she went ahead and did it! Taking improve classes, writing, and now CREATING!
Instead of talking about doing something – she did it. Which we all have the capacity and ability to do (we all do!)! She has inspired me to take on my other personal pursuits and I hope she can inspire you to do the same.
Her mixtape, released today is comedic storytelling about her childhood full of good music and funny interludes. Discussing racism in Kindergarten, transitioning from a girl to a pre-teen, death scents on New York City trains and more. Take a listen at your desk or on your commute!

ELLE CLAY TO RELEASE COMEDY MIXTAPE
306 LIVE ON AUGUST 5, 2014
NEW YORK, NY – Universally slept-on funny person, Elle Clay, announces the release of her comedic debut, 306 LIVE, on August 5, 2014.
The Brooklyn artisan previously renown only for her lip-smacking soda recipes cooks up a platter of homegrown laughs by way of some one-of-a-kind anecdotes of her time growing up in the South. 306 LIVE is Clay bearing her soul, her tales spanning topics as personal as childhood bigotry to topics as universal as the awkwardness of young adulthood.
It was just four years ago that Clay recognized a gift for conversational humor, honing her quick wit and spot-on delivery at NYC’s Upright Citizen’s Brigade and The People’s Improv Theater.
Woven into 306 LIVE are appearances from brash Brooklyn artist Junglepussy and Downtown’s Sweetheart, Va$htie. In it, Clay has concocted an original and unforgettable piece of art sure to leave the listener begging for just one more story.
