He first gained attention for his appearances on the Kill Tony stand-up comedy podcast. Early life and career Patterson grew up in Orlando, Florida. While attending Orlo Vista Elementary, his second grade teacher allowed him to tell jokes in front of class as a reward for finishing his schoolwork. Before pursuing comedy, Patterson was unsure about his future and considered firefighting. He became inspired to perform while working at Foot Locker and receiving motivation from his co-workers and father. In 2021, he began performing comedy sets at open mics in Orlando. In 2022, Patterson was invited to open for comedian Jason Banks. He then moved to Austin, Texas, where his appearances on Kill Tony dramatically increased his profile. His "I Like Rocks" joke became a viral fan-favorite moment on the show and a recurring routine during his appearances on the show and in his stand-up. He performed with Kill Tony at Madison Square Garden in 2024, and toured with Kill Tony in 2025 as one of four comedians called "Killers of Kill Tony".
