Acting Career

Slink Johnson has had a busy career in television, movies, and video games. He is especially famous for bringing the character Lamar Davis to life in the Grand Theft Auto series.

Grand Theft Auto V

In 2013, Johnson provided the voice for Lamar Davis in the video game Grand Theft Auto V. His performance made the character a fan favorite.

Years later, in 2021, a cutscene from the game became a huge internet meme. In the scene, Lamar makes fun of his friend Franklin. People made funny parody videos by replacing Lamar's character with other famous characters.

Because the scene was so popular, Johnson and Shawn Fonteno (the actor who played Franklin) filmed a live-action version of it. They also returned to their roles for new content in Grand Theft Auto Online, which even included a special tribute to the famous "roast" scene.
