Aziz Ansari + VHX

Yesterday, Aziz Ansari launched a new website touting his latest comedy special, Dangerously Delicious. It costs $5 and the funds go straight to Aziz; no middleman distributor or additional hands in the pocket of the artist. You may recall Louis CK doing this first (and Jim Gaffigan planning it for April). It's a trend that's worth repeating. You can watch a preview of the special but if you like Aziz, it's a safe bet that it will be five bucks well spent.

So why is this important to me beyond the comedy special itself? Well, I designed the whole thing in collaboration with VHX and Aziz's people. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out and couldn't be more excited to see the VHX Artists platform (an empowerment tool to sell video directly to fans) make its with someone so worthwhile. Read more about the whole thing right here.

Long story short, Aziz Ansari has a new special you should go buy. Not only because Aziz is great but because it will prove the undertaking by myself and VHX is something worth growing.
