Daniel’s first role was as Bad Boy #1 in the Ice Cube movie, Friday After Next when he was only ten-years-old. Since then Daniel has branched out into more roles in TV, but he hasn’t stopped there. Daniel is also a comedian and rapper. He even teamed up with fellow Zeke and Luther star, Adam Hicks to form a rap duo called Kojo Featuring Luther.
Daniel As Cookie
Daniel plays the dorky Simon aka Cookie on the Nickelodeon show Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide. Cookie is a total tech geek and his locker is always full of cool gadgets—he even has a micro-computer in his glasses!
Zeke And Luther
Korneilius “Kojo” Jonesworth is friends with Zeke and Luther, but he still considers himself a better skater. Kojo is so conceited he even made a calendar full of photos of himself! Kojo has a “big attitude and a big mouth, and takes great pleasure in taking Zeke and Luther down a peg whenever he can," says Daniel.
Outside of the show, Daniel and his co-star Adam Hicks (who plays Luther) started their own rap duo called, of course, Kojo Featuring Luther. They’ve already got some songs available with titles like “Swagg, I’m Bad”, “Skateboards My Life” and “Aye Shawty.”
