Biography

Raheem graduated from Mission College, where he hosted his own radio show, Raheem's Nubian Sunrise Jammy Jam, which combined Black Pride with prank calls and vegan pie-throwing contests.

On his first day on the show, he refused to take part in a live advert spot for Oh My Goshage it's Krusty Brand Sausage!. He refused to eat them and ended up arguing with Krusty over it, and ended up with the clown's head tied up in sausage casing.

He refused to be hit with a hammer, be fired out of a cannon, wear anything in his hear and dress up like an infant for a "Li'l Krusty" sketch. Instead he spent most of the broadcast silently judging Krusty and occasionally reading poems, quoting Cornel West or holding up signs such as "Africans Invented Civilization".

One week after he started at the show, he threw Krusty through his Clown Car and quit the show. According to Krusty, while on Dutch television, Raheem read a poem to him about a new generation of slaves, which reminded Krusty of a joke about slavery. However, its also believed that Krusty spiked Raheems soup with bacon, or Krusty tried a "yo mama" joke. Once resigning, Krusty got violent and tried to hit Raheem with a oversized toothpaste tube, before trying to drunkly run him over with the Jokewagon, his Clown Car. He missed and hit a giant Easter Island totem with his own head on.

Raheem was then offered a position as professor of Media Studies at Morehouse College and wrote a thesiss called "Go Tell It on the Clowntaintop: Being an African Americlown Sidekick". He quit the College when they refused to publish his book "Rerun Was a Sellout: Militancy in "What's Happening Now!"".

Since then a "Sideshow Raheem Conny Con" was held in the Maple Banquet Room of the Ramada Inn in New Jersey, leading Krusty to released a DVD entitled "The Krusty the Clown Show: The Best of Sideshow Raheem"

A clip of him was seen in Krusty the Klown's 29th Anniversary Show. Krusty described him as "an angry young man"

He also attended Krusty's "funeral", and the all-black church.
