"It's yo azzzzzz, Mr Postman"

He may have been funny, but his roles also had a lot of dignity, especially in Friday and The Wayans Bros.

He gave life lessons and was quick to call out Craig, Shawn, and Marlon when they started fuccing up.

Damn, it's true!!!

So many classic roles and cameos under his belt during his lifetime (far too many to count)

Rest In Peace, Power, AND Paradise to true Black Excellence AND a Legend in the game.

And thank you so much for all of the wonderful memories that you have provided for us.

The thing that sucks about getting older is seeing people you admire leave this world.

The man left his mark in black entertainment, and didn't really get his shine till middle age.

I'm not going mourn this loss but celebrate his life

Cosign. But I think him popping in middle age was for the best. He has been relevant my whole life (going on 33) and has a major role on a show (Black Jesus) that still has a few new episodes left to come out this year. That longevity is commendable, especially when he never felt like the old guy trying to be cool.
