Josh was born in Cameroon as his father was on a teaching mission there. The family later moved to Minnesota, and he would attend Como Park Senior High School, from where he matriculated in 1997, and then attended The Evergreen State College, studying creative writing. It was during this period that he started pursuing a career in comedy. While in college, he went back to Africa to volunteer at a zoo in Senegal, and his trip there would eventually become a topic for his comedy acts.

His net worth was starting to build up at this point.

In 2006, he won in the show “Last Comic Standing”, and would later become the first stand-up comedian to perform on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”; this would lead to more television opportunities, including “Comics Unleashed” and “Live with Regis and Kelly”, and he also made appearances on ABC, Fox, CBS, and MSNBC channels.

In 2009, Blue appearede in the film “Feast III: The Happy Finish”, and a year later was voted as the 13th best comedian in “Comedy Central’s Stand-up Comedy Showdown 2010”. His appearances would continue, and so his net worth would also continue to increase. He was a part of the music video “The Psychoanalyst” by Rose Hill Drive, and was then voted as the 11th best comedian during “Comedy Central’s Stand-up Comedy Showdown 2011”. A few of his latest appearances include “Las Vegas Salute to the Troops 2013” in which he was the opening act, and the sports comedy “108 Stitches”.

Aside from this, Josh was part of the 2004 US Paralympic soccer team. He also creates paintings and sculptures, even selling them at high prices.
