"I don't think so ... Homey don't play that!"
Herman Simpson, better known semi-professionally as "Homey D. Clown", is a bitter and hostile convict with a never-ending community service sentence. The anti-social Homey is often seen entertaining a group of excited children, who all remain his biggest fans, even though he degrades them and thumps them on the head using a sock with a tennis ball inside.
Description[]
Homey has a questionable criminal history which has caused severe emotional problems, specifically a lifelong grudge towards "The Man". This side of him comes out whenever he leads the children in a sing-along.
Much of the credit for the character goes to Paul Mooney, who was known to react "Aw no, homey!" whenever a writer pitched a sketch idea that might sound too racist. Damon became inspired, wondering "What if Paul were a clown?" -- and the rest is history.
