Comedy: Watch As Key And Peele Take Us To ‘Negrotown’ (Video)
“Negrotown? Like Atlanta??”
Another gut-busting [musical] comedy sketch – ‘Negrotown’ – by Key and Peele. Sure there is a message in this; but don’t let that keep you from enjoying the bold comedy! To be tongue-in-cheek in story-telling; silly with sense. That’s the essence of hilarious satire. Enjoy your guilty pleasure.
You’re welcome.
Common ‘Keeps It 100’ on Black Women & Fatherhood on ‘The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore’ (Video)
Common recently appeared on the panel revolving around Black Fatherhood on ‘The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore’ that airs on Comedy Central. New York Times columnist Charles Blow, founder of the Center for URban Families Joe Jones and comedian Mike Yard also take part in this discussion that began with the simple statement that ’72 percent of black children are born to unwed mothers.’
Although they tackle serious issues in this discussion, things get hilariously uncomfortable fast as Larry poses questions about whether they’d play in the Super Bowl instead of witnessing the birth of their first child & their opinions on whether or not black women are too domineering in relationships. Check out more video from the discussion below……
Dave Chappelle Speaks On Turning Down $50 Million, Bouncing Back From Extreme Adversity & More On ‘Late Night With David Letterman’ (Video)
Great clip! Great insights (and laughs). Give it the full 15 minutes of your attention. As David Letterman interviews comedian/actor Dave Chappelle, the two discuss his sudden, astounding, and costly ($50 million he walked away from…50…MILLION) resignation from his Comedy Central show years ago, his memory of a horrible standup experience at Radio City Music Hall (opening for Aretha Franklin) at 19, family life and more.
“Of course I would like to have that money. When you quit, my friends’ll try and make me feel better but no one’s been through that so they’ll say stupid stuff – not stupid stuff, it’s nice – ‘Well, you know what Dave, at the end of the day, you still have your integrity.’ Yeah, that’s great. I’ll go home and make the kids some integrity sandwiches.â€
The Word: ‘Color-Bind’ on The Colbert Report (Video)
‘President Obama takes the first step in racial dialogue by discussing how it feels to be in a room full of White people who are scared of him.’
– The Colbert Report
Oh, Fox News! Only you would take serious commentary on being Black in America and dismiss the conversation as frivolous. Guess good ole boys will be good ole boys. Right, Bill O’Reilly? Bernard Goldberg? Actually reporting that questions on race are moot because [odds are] Black people are the ones committing violent crimes. Wowwww.
Don’t get mad though folks. Stephen Colbert hits ’em in the head with the brilliant/hilarious skit (above) about black men and racism. Have a chuckle at the Fox chuckle-heads’ expense.
Jon Cryer, Buckshot, & Pharoahe Monch Perform ‘Jon Cryer Will F*ck You Up’ On The First Annual Comedy Awards (Video)
Comedy Central’s First Annual Comedy Awards aired last night & one of the highlights was seeing Pharoahe Monch & Buckshot help out Jon Cryer with his new rap single since his show ‘2 & A Half Men’ has been on indefinite hiatus with whole ‘Charlie Sheen Gone Wild’ events in the past few months. The title of this skit ‘Jon Cryer Will F*ck You Up’ seems to be a not-so subtle jab at Charlie Sheen too! Hahaa! Check out more video from the First Annual Comedy Awards under the hood…..
