Can Someone Explain To Me Why D.L. Hughley Was on "Kings Of Comedy" Again 🤔?

[Zero]

DL is more relevant right now so of course Katt is better to these coli nikkas and cacc00ns.

The revisionist history of Katt Williams is something I will never understand

That man was funny as hell and spoke on some real shyt prior to his apparent heavy drug usage.

And yall nikkas was laughin too until somebody decided the man was too unstable...all of a sudden he was never funny

Shameful shyt

I know that captain obvious but if we had collective of pool of comics to choose from that would be the choices for me.

fukking canadians.

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

"PEEEE-NUT-BUT-TUH..NO JAAAHHMMM NO JAHHMM.. FEEEL ME NOW!"





Whole set had me

Everyone has a different idea of what funny is. IMO DL is just as funny as bernie mac. Steve harvey and Cedric aren't funny at all. But thats my opinion.

End of the day they were probably all on the kings of comedy tour cuz they're the ones who accepted the gig OR put the tour together or however it works. Was a business opportunity. And those were the four nikkas who wanted to conduct business. I'm sure if chris rock was down it woulda been the 5 kings.


Edit: Not gon lie ceds had his moments. Steve is still trash tho

 

[OH SOHH TRILL]

R.I.P. to him, but I thought Bernie Mac's bit was weak. Retard jokes are kinda just meh.

I liked the Bernie Mack show though.

 

[Threnody]

RIP...Bernie Mac but he was a poor mans Robin Harris (RIP)

The other three ain't even worth speaking on. lol@ them being the kings of anything

 

[Jayseos]

I've always thought DL was cool but steve is and always will be trash...side note I'm going to see Dave next monday I hope he is funny never cared too much about his stand ups.

Im not sure why everyone is taking offense to the "kings of comedy" moniker, as if it were the results of some kind of poll, and not a self-anointment from four cats who saw that black comedy was hot as a pistol at the time and they wanted to get in on the action. They just made the claim, branded themselves, and ran with it.

The kings of comedy was more about bringing back an older style of black comedy that was "pre-hip hop" generation, and would therefore resonate with a more mature black crowd that didnt get the younger niccas. It was like your funny uncle's comedy, and it was all marketing 101.

Again, they were just trying to muscle in on the Chris Rock's and Martin Lawrences of the world, and it worked. Them brothas caked off that kings of comedy sht, and they all had solid careers after. Clap for 'em.

The whole list was a farce. Back then a true line up would have been Chris tucker, Martin Lawrence, Dave chaplle and Chris tucker. Jamie Foxx and Bill Bellamy would have been good backups

We need that Kings of Comedy 2

Here's the reason why DL was on the KOC:

You need to have a mass appeal for this kind of comedy tour to work. Before it was usually just one headline name that would be going around. In order to pack these stadiums, they picked 4 guys that would appeal to people in some combination:

- If you like a comedian that's gonna move around, have a lot of actions.. Ced
- If you like a comedian that's gonna snap on people.. DL
- If you like a comedian that's raw (not PC)... Bernie
- If you like having a host that's tolerable/enjoyable on your comedy shows... Steve

It's not about who is the best pound-for-pound... it's about who can you put together so their styles work and it's not going to have direct comparisons of who's better because their styles and sets were different and unique.

Get it together, brehs. It's not all competition. They all were in it to make something successful and make money and they did it.

If in 2007 you had this list of comedians like this together for KOC2........

 

[FocusedDaily]

I want to slap anyone who ever mentions Chris tucker in a stand up conversation.

It's always done by black folks who have no taste or arent' really standup fans. He hasn't performed a hour of standup for tv/cable/or screen in almost 20 years. But ask any 40 year black woman, or bamma negro and they'll put chris tucker in their top 3.

It's damn disgusting

Chris Rock
Dave Chappelle
Martin Lawrence

The real kings of comedy
