Yep i knew him even before he had that freshprince/family matters ripoff on the revived tgif.
I saw him at Caroline’s on Broadway for a hefty fee back in the day. I can’t remember if it was 2010 or 2012.

Nah...I didn't know he was a comedian until that first stand up that blew up.

Crazy because he ran in circles with comedians I fukk with heavy; Patrice O'Neal, Colin Quinn, etc.

I just know I was seeing his face everywhere starting in 03. I didn't make the connection until like 07.

For whoever mentioned me. In saw Kevin Hart back in 02-03 when had a 15 min set in a place called Maxines in Trenton maybe 20 mins from Philly. Did In think he was anything special, no, but he had stage presence which stood out to me especially for a dude who I thought was no older than 20 at 1st glance.

When he first started he had a stand up with comedy central. It was him and a few others. Also saw frank caliendo do stand up on this same show. Both were some of the worst stand ups ive ever seen.

I first saw Kevin Hart in 2005 in 40 Year Old Virgin. It was a funny scene.

In 2008, a black acquaintance recommended Kevin’s first standup, I’m a Grown Little Man. This was a funny standup.

So while I’ve never watched Soul Plane, although I do have a friend that loves that movie, I was pretty acquainted with Kevin’s work, early in his career.
