- Look at how he created and produced a show for Redd Foxx after the IRS took everything from him (The Royal Family) :wow:

- Look at all the black comedians in the cast of Norbit (Katt Williams, Mike Epps, Eddie Griffin, Marlon Wayans, Terry Crews, etc.)

- Hired his brother and close personal friends as his security team back in the 80s

I remember an old interview Eddie did with Spike Lee talking about all the things he was trying to do for black actors and comedians that "Hollywood" was blocking. (Spike and Eddie were doing a Marion Berry biopic. Don't know what happened to it.)


:salute:to Brother Eddie for keepin' it 100

Eddie GOAT

I also give Martin and the wayans brothers love as well because I like how they brought on older black actors and actresses on their tv shows...

Since the 90s I haven't seen black tv shows pay homage to passed black actors and actresses...I might be wrong, but I haven't seen it...

I give ice cube credit also for putting a lot of blacks on in his movies or behind-the-scenes

:yes: That's why The 90s was such a dope time for black television.

All of these guys were friends behind the scenes and lookin out for one another (The Wayans, Robert Townsend, Will Smith, Eddie, Martin, Jamie Foxx, etc.)

If you get some time watch the full thing

He talks about Eddie taking him around shotgun in his Bentley around NBC studios and putting him on game.

Eddie that dude breh :wow:


Eddie just carrying on tradition. Richard Pryor did the EXACT same thing with Eddie when he himself was coming up.:wow:


I know Eddie is a tranny chasing Cac bytch impregnating recluse now, but what he did for fellow black comedians and black actors during the late 80's-mid 90's was nothing short of fantastic. Can't be taken away from him..
