Burr, Big Jay, Patrice, Attell, Keith Robinson etc etc. Lil Kev the bastard paid his dues around some real standups.
People saying Kev got fasttracked
I remember listening to Foxxhole back in the day with Kevin on
They had no respect for his credits at all
Soul Plane was trash and everything else he did was too
according to many of his counterparts
he took roles that others werent willing to take
I feel a lot of his success came from outworking everyone
It’s complete revisionist history to say none of them weren’t funny
true
Who I never heard shade him was earthquake
But he even said earthquake a good dude
And he’s funny
He just can’t read
Comic View was appointment viewing in my house
Earthquake was my dude
Arnez J was also my dude
but supposedly he never came up with new material
a lot of these guys are like that
they stick to their early material and never move on
so they dont advance
I always felt that Kings of Comedy shouldve been Bernie, Steve, Ced and Bruce Bruce
I couldve gone without DL
Only person not funny
Imo
Is Steve Harvey
At the time though
He was a great host
He was great on Showtime at the Apollo imo
I dont like what he has become
but back then
I will say he was funny
Cedric though
after learning about the bits he ripped off
cause thats at least 3 in kings of comedy that werent his
it does change things a bit
I’m glad Katt got at Faizon dude never miss the opportunity to sound like a ****ing hater
Faizon is a weird and bitter dude
and its true
when is the last time you thought about his standup?
him and Aries Spears are some of the most bitter people youll hear
