Katt Williams Wants The Smoke, Goes In on Tiffany Haddish, Kevin Hart and Others on V-103

[6pac]

I can’t hate on it at all. From Paper Soldiers, Martin, Friday, Raw etc. To these. Look at the imagery. Look at the casts. Look at the success.

Chevy Chase and them can’t be the only one to eat in these lanes.

Also....daily reminder that Ice Cube is the GOAT. Forgot he had Barbershop too amongst MANY other films.

you bringing up a good point that black art cant just be laid back and goofy.

vince staples said this too like we can only sell some form of pain or trauma or deeper seriousness to it. we love katt and chappelle because they turn real pain or a observation about how ****** up the world is into some hilarious ****.

nobody ever really calls white celebrities corny if they stay away from the urban lane (the ems and justins and logics get it bc they chose to try and come to the urban lane...but who calls brad pitt or matthew mconnahey corny) .

Yo somebody make a comedy thread where cats post funny bits and stand up clips and vids

I got on a Cedric the entertainer binge the other day. My dawg Ced so underrated man . His special on Netflix from a few years ago hilarious man.

Chick I been seeing took me to my first ever comedy show a few months back. Had an amazing time man. They also brought back Def comedy jam on hbo. Check your on demand for it. 6 episodes last time I checked. That’s how Bibby from ATLANTA got discovered.

Hilarious. Start that thread up woe.

 

[tay1]

Cedric was always the funniest outside of Bernie.

 

[6pac]

these dudes got something special.



I’m rooting for DC to be the next “guy” so hard man. just a funny *** country dude and just reminds me of the type of humor ****** did back in public school.

i was crying when they went in on joe budden face *** boy’s dreads that started 6 inches behind his tapeline. just skip around until you see that *****. so many quotables i cant remember lmao. they had a comparison to some character that was so on point. someone find it and time stamp.

 

[wavycrocket]

DcYoungFly and Karlous Miller are legit funny. People hate on DC because he came up on Vine/IG and those 30 sec “roasts” are meh....but he legit funny on stage for real. Like classically, unapologetically BLACK funny in that setting. He’s a star...

I do. Back when they made corny *** movies. Especially MM and his romcoms.

The thing is both those dudes smartened up and swerved in to a lane of doing more serious dramatic roles. So when they do actually do a comedy it's played off of that fact of what they're mainly known for.

Y'all keep naming the wrong white ppl. If you want to talk about Chevy Chase we can talk about his corny ***

Dont pretend like white ppl don't got a ton of corny **** out there and don't get criticized/roasted for it.

Main issue seems to be about who is doing it. Wouldn't be hard to find some white ppl that don't rock with that **** either.

 

[Xennial]

Logic is black, also its plenty of corny white dudes in entertainment

Wow none of this was funny

 

[DCAllAfrican]

6pac Well said on everything.

"All movies have a purpose."

 

[fac3 tak30v312]

to put it in perspective the only reason you dont think movies like dr doolittle or juwanna mann corny is because you were a kid during the time and prolly got good memories from the timeframe.

a 8-14 year old loves this **** and thinks its hilarious. and when im high yes some dumb slapstick comedy like kevin screaming and getting knocked across the room may get a chuckle for the same reason a ***** on my timeline screaming and getting knocked across the room would get a chuckle.

its different types of funny. physical or so corny/overdone its silly humor that kevin does.

and then katt williams illuminati party “is that two grown *** men kissinng” or dave chappelle “lets sprinkle some crack” thats so true or relatable or creative funny.

i prefer the chappelles and williams but you cant call movies like dr doolittle or juwanna mann or some other dumb comedy from before 2005 hilarious/classic bc you were a kid at the time. and then call they’re modern day equivalents are corny. they’re both corny bc its for kids.

like the dudes who loved 90’s wrestling when they were 8 and then wonder why its trash 20 years later when they are 30....and its still made for 8 year olds

IDK... man this might be a regional thing.. Movies I found OD corny as a kid.. Dudes be saying one or two lines from the movie and have everyone dying of laughter... While I’m here faking a chuckle

Like Juwanna Mann wasn’t funny to me then but now I be damn near balling a laughter.. That’s really after running into a couple of Juwanna Mann’s in my day to day life

You be watching these comedies thinking this ish OD ridiculous then run into a couple of dudes who act just like that

 

[DCAllAfrican]

.

I think the issue has always been the PERCENTAGE OF major black movie releases that are of the corny vibe compared to that of white movies.

Of course since we are represented at a smaller scale in Hollywood, our percentages will read higher.

 

[cashbanks]

A lot of ppl going to see a movie doesn't mean he or the movie was funny.

Just means he did his job in getting ppl to see it.

Millions of ppl are not about that ask for a refund life.

If getting a refund was more easy there probably only be a couple dozen hundred+ million dollar movies.

But according to dudes in this thread he’s a one trick pony who recycles jokes I can’t believe the NT comedy experts are the only ones to notice this...

So I think it’s safe to assume people know what they’re getting with him and his movies and they obviously want it given ticket sales...

People like to see Kevin act a fool, people think he’s funny, that’s not gonna change no matter how much 12 niketalkers want it to.

 

[$tacy]

Nah DC not funny but he is a star if that makes sense. Now karlous and Chico are legit stand up funny, especially Karlous. DC comes out, throw a few meh jokes ask people what they do for a living and does that loud annoying laugh to make up for the lack of funny.

 

[cubanref]

I don't get the "Kevin Hart is a sellout" logic.

Just imagine someone coming up to you and telling you that they're going to pay you tens of millions of dollars a year to be your corny *** self. That you'd travel the world, make movies and do whatever you want just by being yourself. Some of you would actually say "no thanks, I'm not selling out"

I get that he might not be funny but some of you hate for no reason...

 

[Mark Antony]

Karlos is hilarious, haven't seen it with DC yet honestly. He's like the quick non stop roaster that's gets a good one off first then rattles off trash but he talks fast and loud so people get caught up in the trap.

Kevin's movies and specials haven't been funny, but his interviews are hilarious for the most part, dude is a natural comedian with potential to do better, but he just knows his lane. And right now his lane is opening up doors so let him do his thing. Still the best part of Night School was this promo run, it was masterful. Showing up in youtube recommendations across content creators that were vastly different. etc. He's always had his finger on the pulse of social media. I think a lot of "hate" from other comedians comes from the envy of the level of control over his career he was able to gain.

 

[frshstunna]

Yea still dont see it with DC Youngfly...all I get from him is screaming in a wild country accent, not anything funny..He def got some popularity and a solid fanbase tho, so thats good to see a regular brotha from the streets making moves 4real

Ya'll seen that new Rel show? That joint is terrible, but its on network tv so I expected that

None of that still don't mean he or his movies are funny.

Churning out temporary fast food comedies can only last for so long. That goes for everybody not just Kevin Hart.

To me this is more about Kevin making his money than those results proving he's funny

They're not funny TO YOU.

You apparently want your opinion of funny applied to everyone, folks aren't lining up to see someone they dont find funny over and over and over again.

A lot of people think he and his movies are funny.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Jermaine Fowler (From DC) is funny as hell

He is moving up in the world

|A-Man| I get what you're saying. Kevin Hart right now is focused on making paper as opposed to honing his craft and you can't blame him. 99.9% of cats in his shoes would do the same thing.

Compare going on tour and having to create new jokes and other comedy material vs. phoning it in with some weak movie scripts and making a significantly higher amount of money. Hell, I'd go with the latter scenario if the opportunity presented itself.

Plenty of sheep in this world who just want to like what they think is popular. Honestly that’s not even the point. The movie studios aren’t even giving these other comedians an opportunity to shine. They hand pick what they perceive as marketable entertainers. Image, looks, ability to fall into line play a part in movie studios deciding who to push. They know Kevin will do anything for a check so they won’t have any issues with creative differences. He’ll gladly play a stereotype to push a movie. Some cats like Dave Chappelle ain’t going to just do some of the jiving Kevin does on film, he’s safe, ain’t got nothing to do with being funny. You ever noticed Kevin has never carried a movie by himself? He’s always the comedic relief. You see the result when he’s featured in a movie, you get a product like Night School. For the record Martin Lawrence turned into the same thing later in his career.

 

[tay1]

idc how people feel about Kev, his first 3 specials are great and Seriously Funny is a near classic

 

[|A-Man|]

They're not funny TO YOU.

Definitely not just me

 

[kingkoopa]

Nah he’ll definitely do anything for a check. He’s driven by money not his love to be the best comic ever to grace a stage

And?

 

[nawghtyhare]

For the record Martin Lawrence turned into the same thing later in his career.

martin films were still hilarious
blue streak still cracks me up to this day
also national security is funny as hell
