The King of all Blacks (real name Lawrence Coward) is a frequent guest on the Howard Stern radio show. He is a former New Jersey garbage man who is very materialistic, and loves the finer things in life. He was recently promoted to street sweeper and plans to retire after twenty years of working for the Englewood, NJ sanitation department. King is very interested in material possessions; some of the things he brags about include his Moen faucets and his Infiniti SUV. He claims to come from wealthy parents who paid for his house and shower him with gifts (including a mink coat), and has lived in large houses his whole life. King grew up more privileged than other blacks in his area. He said he used to receive toys as a child before they arrived in stores due to his father's economic status. His new dog is a West Highland Terrier, reinforcing his fetish with all things "white".

However, King seems to have profound issues with his ethnic identity, and could be described as sort of an Uncle Tom.^{[citation needed]}

He often berates Blacks (as well as other minorities) in attempts to curry favor with Howard. He also claims that he lives in an all white neighborhood and if he sees a black person walking down the street he would call the police. King also hates Jews. And has been rumored to having a homosexual relationship with an NBA player who plays for Kings local team the NJ Nets.

King's arch-enemy on the show is fellow Wack Packer Angry Black.
