Me: I don't know if I want to see that on a 40 ft screen and I definitely don't want to pay $20 for it... I mean I'm in the comfort of my own home I could stream it but... I plan on enjoying myself so I'm absolutely not watching this over my girlfriend's house... Oh it's up for an academy award? Sure sure sure... I'll put it on my playlist. 12 years later...

@@mobid.2084 I watch a lot of content I have zero interest in for a few reasons... Ignoring pop culture means you're always on the outside of a society wide inside joke. Great art is still great art, and great stories are still great stories. Technically impressive feats and scientific advancements are still cool (Waterworld was not good, but it really seemed like the entire planet was flooded). Oh even though most people can guess I should add that I'm a Black American. Anyway despite the fact that it was in theory a hard no for me too, my brain tried to convince me to watch it anyway and my conscious just kept coming up with all the excuses I listed in the original comment. I did watch: Underground Seasons 1 and 2 Antebellum I Kindred I think the fact that they had a fantasy element (as in Sci-Fi) or a fantasy element (as in revenge fantasy) is what allowed me to watch. 12 Years a Slave, (the new) Birth of a Nation, and even different topic same trauma Killers of the Flower Moon are too grounded in reality for me to consume without a stick or a carrot. Sorry for the long reply... Guess I had that on my chest.

I clicked this video randomly cause it was short. And liked it.. But i washed my hands to put a "like" on this guys name after that "rightfully enslaved " "Candace Owen's joke". 10/10 on just that.
He is HILARIOUS! 🤣😂🤣
Funniest comic I’ve seen in ages!

Yes, giving us advice while making us laugh. Get off the 24/7 news. Get off the social media. Go find your news. Go find your people. Share your ideas and everything that makes you who you are but don't fall for these companies that just sell you and divide you and alienate you. Take a break from this right here and contact your loved ones directly. Let them know you miss them and want to get together. Take care y'all
Hilarious!! 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
I used to have a friend that wanted to watch Django and 12 years with me and I’m like bro why tf would I wanna watch those😂
If I’m in Alabama and I hear that whewww 😂😂😂😂😂
The crowd had no idea who Michael B Jordan is.......that show must be in Idaho 😂😂😂😂👀
Facts lol.
That’s the movies. We wish others came through as you describe.
Alabama jokes 😂
White...off white...eggshell!!😩😫😄😆😅😂🤣🤣🤣

I know he was joking about black trauma films, but I'd really love to get his take on Pam Grier and those 1970s films!
I think saying Jada Pinkett Smith instead of Candace would have killed the room personally
Hello Alex
1:45 8:10
Hello Paige
Hahahaha
the whole presidents aging thing feels way too similar to Wanda Syke's bit in "its not Normal," like almost the exact same joke
😂
Alabama is only for the ones that grew up here wheew around here means roll tide
his entire set is just viral tweets from 2020
6:40 that's black maga tho

Great bit about the Presidents! Trump definitely stressed me out! 0:55
His girlfriend in the front row laughing way too hard.
Age a country- yeah. It ain’t politics making “us hate each other.”
Isn't that first bit about presidents aging a little bit too much like that Wanda Sykes bit? I mean they probably just both independently thought of it, but yeah.
That’s Black ONE, no plural so far.
I heard of a few movies that they exist never seen them but I have seen a few there's a black movie about a black guy who time travels to the medieval times and improve society in medieval times and advances society quickly and too funny black movies I've seen is The nutty professor and norbit I might be white but I love any kind of movie
Wrongfully enslaved😂
This comment section is a mess. Holy fuck
I hope he starts acting, if he already isn't
Listen to the man. No more Black Trauma films or Black enslavement movies paid for by Brad Pitt (he was a producer on 12 years a slave)
Zactly Black folks don’t need to pay to go to an escape room!
Trump the first President to age a country. We got old, how that happen? 😂
As a European, so as an outsider looking in, it's always funny to me watching some Americans talking about Trump, especially when they had such great lives yet can never seem to remember it. 😂
