Comedy: The Story Behind Thr33way, The Boy Band (Nick Kroll x Jordan Peele x James Corden) [Video]
I can feel you. I can feel you both.
Bwaaaahahaaa! They stoopit!! I ask again: When has Corden NOT been FUNNY?? And teaming up with Comedy Central staples Nick Kroll and Jordan Peele is a no-brainer to make a gut-buster of a sketch clip. But this. These dudes are dangerously hilarious in this. Like if gunmen came through and threatened, “The next m*therf*cker that laughs is DEAD,” and played this clip… Y’ALL GONE DIE!
(Got serious, right? Know what, play the clip. You will STILL laugh!)
In a time when *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys and others dominated the boy band landscape, three mavericks came together to form Thr33way – a boy band that didn’t hide from its sexuality.

GLC Says Kanye West Defines Success As Being Embraced By White People (Video)
Don’t know if this is all real talk, sneak dissing, some dry snitching or what… but this word on Yeezus comes from a [likely former] homie of his who would know. Rapper GLC came up with Yeezy in The Go Getters crew back in Chicago back in the day. Well, GLC interviewed with The Chicago Morning Takeover show, and spilled a big bowl of Kanye beans – on everything from the hospitalization to the new hair coloring (blonde) of Ye.
Hey, we all have our weirdness; whether in phases or on the daily. But the most damning shot GLC might have let fly is alleging Kanye’s life goal of turning in his hood pass.
Wowwww.
‘Lester Holt’ Interviews ‘President Donald Trump’ On Saturday Night Live (Video)
Aaaawww DAMN! Hahahaaahahaaa!
President Donald Trump (Alec Baldwin) discusses firing FBI director James Comey in an interview with Lester Holt (Michael Che).
This clip is so chock full of shots, I don’t know where to begin and I almost didn’t want it to end. You know what, no more ‘priming the pump’… Let’s get to this Saturday Night Live ‘Lester Holt vs. President Trump’ sketch!
Hasan Minhaj (Of The Daily Show) Gives An Roast Epic Speech At The White House Correspondents’ Dinner (Video)
Ohhhhhh shhhheeeeeeeiiiit! I wanted to categorize this as comedy, but this is more. This is even more biting than mere satire; plenty of BITE. Don Rickles (RIP) level roasting of an entire room AND of The President… you know, at the WHITE HOUSE Correspondents’ event that they have EVERY year.
Daily Show correspondent Hasan Minhaj took full advantage of Donald Trump’s absence by taking aim at The President and his administration during his monologue at the White House Correspondents’ dinner.
– Global News
I’m sure it was on his calendar. But hell, I cannot blame him. Some of this sh!t BURNED, but it seems like everyone took it in stride. And I do mean everyone, because ‘The Daily Show’ Correspondent Hasan Minhaj gave a taste to EVERYONE: Not just the POTUS, but key officials in his Administration, with shots for Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, even C-SPAN (who broadcasts the event annually)!
You HAVE to watch, but strap up and sack up. Hasan is hella funny, but his speech hits hella HARD! Whew.

Remy Ma – “ShETHER” (Nicki Minaj Diss)
So, Hip-Hop Nation, how was the weekend? Anything interesting go down. Any beef get flame-broiled? Hear anything pop off.
Just kidding. Here’s that “ShEther” dissing Nicki HARD over that Nas “ShETHER” instrumental. with Remy Shots heard ’round the world. Hell no. Remy with the sh!ts heard ’round the Hip-Hop world!!! A little slick Twit talk and THIS is the response??? WHEW! Do they REALLY want it with Remy Ma? Wonder what we’ll hear from Nicki though. And any ‘counter diss’ will NEED to be DIRECT. Subliminal is OVER! Remy called Nicki by name and went IN on her, her family, her exes, dragged in some associates…scorched the earth!
What now from Nicki? Spit back? Or maybe ‘buys over bars’ will be the response. Nicki does have big sales numbers. Really don’t think that is the way to respond here (Rem went there in the track already). Say everything or say nothing… just an opinion/prediction.
(Hit the jump for some of what is believed to have brought this on.)

WWE Superstars Took Offense At Conor McGregor’s Comments And Clapped Back! (Video)
Everyone knows professional wrestling is fake, but I still respect them because they are still athletes. With Conor’s comments he forgot that at the end of the day they are still men.

J. Cole – “False Prophets” (Video)
Did you see the J. Cole documentary we posted on here yet? On top of that: New visuals from a new forthcoming album from a renewed J. Cole? You damn right Hip-Hop Nation! And yes…SHOTS FIRED! Do something. Haha!
Word on the Interwebs is that Cole is going at Drake and Kanye West. Maybe. But actually, this is the realest way to step to and stomp out wackness on the whole. With dope music… off “4 Your Eyez Only.” Check out “False Prophets” above.
The Game Speaks On His Album “1992,” Dissing Sean Kingston & Meek Mill And More (Video)
Wow. The Game has found love or respect for everyone, Kurrupt to KXNG Crooked (aka Crooked I) to Kendrick Lamar, even 50 Cent… but NOT Meek Mill and Sean Kingston. Wow!
The Game talks about his beef with Meek Mill and Sean Kingston, the disrespectful lines in “Pest Control,” his new album “1992,“ patching things up with 50 Cent, did his cars get shot up in Miami and much more.
Catch his apology for the stray shot he took at Meek’s girl Nicki Minaj in there, too.
Roland Martin Chastises Bill O’Reilly For Not Respecting Colin Kaepernick’s Protest (Video)
Uh oh. Colin, you can drop back for a second and let brother Roland put the blitz on Billy [Bob] O’Reilly. Sacked him!! When Roland goes, “So, Bill, DAMN your book,” you KNOW the ‘turn up’ turned the corner!
“Bill, what books are you reading?”
Roland Martin gave Bill O’Reilly a history lesson on patriotism and African Americans.
O’Reilly wants Colin Kaepernick to read his book about patriotism, but Martin, host of NewsOne Now says O’Reilly has it all wrong and offered a series of tiles that O’Reilly should read instead.
Comedy: Donald Trump Wins a Huge Endorsement (Video)
Bwaaahahaa! Okay, ‘Beelzebub’ aka ‘Old Scratch’ finally gives his official #Campaign2016 endorsment. Satan is stumping for Trump! But the funniest thing is that he opens with wording that sounds like it was taken straight from campaign scripting.
Donald Trump is the only candidate running who has the business savvy and proven leadership skills to keep the Democrats out of the Whitehouse and lead this country…
Yep. ‘Lucifer’ obviously lifted some wording straight from the RNC speechwriters’ notes. Don’t hate. Then again, he is ‘The Devil’ so…

Comedy/Politics: Stephen Colbert Officially Opens The ‘Hungry For Power Games’ At The RNC (Video)
[Stephen Colbert] Julius and his pet weasel Caligula report from the 2016 Republican National Hungry For Power Games at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, where Tribute Trump is set to accept the party’s nomination.
Haaaa! The polished segment turned out even better than anticipated. Watch The Late Show segment that Stephen Colbert crashed the RNC to shoot (raw footage we posted from that here). So many comic jabs landed in this bit. You gotta watch!
Watch Stephen Colbert Crash The RNC Stage (Video)
Getting a bit of footage for a skit for The Late Show, Stephen Colbert sneaked up onto the podium and ‘gaveled’ the Republican National Convention (RNC) to order this past Sunday ‘Hunger Games’ style. However, the words he uttered as he struggled with the security staffer firmly escorting him away from the mic should prove to be most poignant and memorable:
“Look, look… I know I’m not supposed to be up here. But let’s be honest, neither is Donald Trump.”
Solid. Satirical. Political. GOLD!!

Joe Budden – “Making A Murderer” (Part 1) [Prod. By araabMUZIK]
The shottas heard round the world wide web. This “Making A Murderer” (produced by araabMUZIK) is labeled Part 1 there is a Part 2 coming. Like this shot by Budden is the spark to finally get Drake fired up enough to fire back. We shall see, but either way there is some grown man in-yo-face dissing on this track. Direct. No subtle talk. Listen (or listen again)!

Pusha T Responds To People’s Comments About Himself, “Grindin'” And More (Video)
It’s The People vs. Pusha T. Some People come with kind comments; but others come his the hard cracks on the 2002 instant classic “Grindin’.” Casio beat…really? Struggle braids…really? Haaaaaaa!
Ghostface Gets At Back Martin Shkreli With His Own ‘Goons’ And ‘Goo’ (Video)
Stop f#cking around and grow the f#ck up…BE A MAN!
It’s the clap back at Millionaire Martin for all that reckless talk… But not how you think. Interesting. Verrrry interesting. The Hip-Hop Nation might’ve expected Ghost to go hard at prescription drug magnate Martin Shkreli. However, only the shrewdest heads could have thought it though to come up with this type of battle plan.
Ghostface Killah strikes back at Martin Shkreli with the 5000% increase of Daraprim.
War is chess, not checkers, folks. It’s often about winning hearts and minds. So, to take the battle to where Shkreli cannot win (e.g. Martin ain’t winning anybody’s heart anytime soon), to paint him as TRYING to be the ultimate villain THEN clown him for that THEN bring in the ‘goods’ to join the laughter… THEN have one of them end with a teary-eyed plea to Shkreli (and his MOM) to do right by the people who are sick and dying in the wake of his greed (e.g. his aforementioned 5000% price increase of the HIV drug Daraprim)…checkmate!
And in the midst of it all, promote the Wu Goo brand as the ‘anti’ to all of that at the same damn time! Mr. Starks’Â is showing the skill and temperament of a master… Shaolin technique is VERY good and his sword is deadly sharp. Well played.
Watch.
John Oliver Gives The Gospel Truth On ‘Prosperity Preachers’ (Video)
U.S. tax law allows television preachers (read: prosperity preachers, who ask you for money you don’t have, promising blessings they cannot promise) to get away with almost anything. Not only are their actions LEGAL in the United States, but as part of a church, they can do the ridiculousness TAX-FREE! Folks, you have to pay taxes on money you earn at your 9-to-5 though.
We will now allow you a moment to get inconsolably angry-sad.
Now, to make you feel a bit better, here’s John Oliver with a hard-hitting satirical piece from his HBO series “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver“ giving it to the run-amok prosperity gospel industry. Give it to ’em, John. Hallelujah!
‘The Daily Show’ Host Trevor Noah Makes Fun Of His Very Serious Emergency Room Experience (Video)
So, the host of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Trevor Noah, had to have an emergency appendectomy just days ago. See his comical recount of what was a f#cked up emergency room experience. Besides the ‘waiting room’ shot, this was my fav quip from the above clip: Asked for more info to fill out endless forms while in excruciating (near blackout) pain, Trevor responds,
“What more information do you need, other than the fact that I’m dying?”
Ever a political hot topic in the U.S., many always bring up the fact the MANY nations abroad provide free/better healthcare than America’s. But you may have wondered if folks from other countries say U.S. healthcare is better somehow. Well, let’s hear from someone who has now experienced both.
Play the clip. Laugh through the pain. Welcome back, Noah. Get better soon.
