KevJumba (Kevin Wu) is one of the top YouTube comedy stars to date (no doubt, the top YouTube star in Davis.)
As an entering Art Major (now Communications Major) a part the UC Davis class of 2012, Kevin gained notoriety for his YouTube channel
http://www.youtube.com/user/kevjumba which began during his high school years. It is said that much of Kevin's humor is built around his Asian identity with his traditional Asian father playing a major role in his videos.

2010-11-08 19:55:09 Talk amongst fellow peers reveals that he's not as "Asian" as he may portray as on YouTube. Also he's not the most friendly nor humble fellow to stumble upon in Davis. Rumor has it, that he transfered to UCLA, because of the strong discontent with his overall attitude.

Random Tidbit: He's not welcomed by the Asian Fraternities on campus because of his lack of respect and overall rude behavior towards others. —ClarenceL

2010-11-09 00:38:31 Kevjumba passed by me on his bike and gave me a dirty look for no reason when I made eye contact with him. He once walked into our Queer Studies class on accident, and when he found out it was "Queer Studies" he started acting real rude. :] —ThUn
