Yea IDK what these nikkas talking about.

Not only was Kevin famous in the black community from doing movies(Soul Plane, Scary movie etcc) but seriously funny was the shyt at the time.

Who cares that he wasnt doing cac movies with the Rock? Dude was still famous and buzzin :heh:

Yea.....Kevin Hart, Mike Epps, Katt Williams. They were all popping on the black circuit around the time (mid to late 2000s). Mike and Katt were in the game longer but, I looked at them as all on the same level.

Kevin Hart took off like a rocket and went mainstream but, to act like he was a broke nobody in 2009 is just a complete falsehood :heh:

That's bullshyt dog. Kevin Hart was in Not Easily Broken, Death at a Funeral, In the Mix, Soul Plane, 40 Year Old Virgin and a shytload of comedy movies by 2011. He wasn't a star but, he wasn't a starving actor either. People knew who he was by then.
I stated that he wasn't "broke broke" but he wasn't rich either. He didn't have a major role in any of those films other than Soul plane. I doubt he was paid more than a low 5-figure sum for any of those roles. He was in like 1 scene in 40 year old virgin, how much you think he got paid for that? He was hood famous sure but he wasn't well off at all by any stretch. He's done interviews where's he's explained all of this.
Let's keep it a buck...
Most of these post are out of envy..
Guaranteed a hardworking, blue collared breh is not on the radar for most of these women.
Kev will find out sooner or later if she really about that life when he hits the declining wall:sas2:
Im not sure there will be a "decline" for Kevin Hart. He's much more business savvy than others. He's producing his own stand up specials using his own money(greater profits in the short term and longterm syndication potential and royalties) and he's got a Netflix type of streaming service for comedy coming out. His personal star might dim but I think his money going to be good for life.
His first stand ups were in theatres around 2009 -2011 if i recall as well. nikka been eating since soul plane honestly
His first theatrical release stand up special was in 2011

Kevin ain't really takeoff until 2011 and he started seeing eniko 2009/2010 so maybe he wasn't "broke broke" but he wasn't really a millionaire either.
Btw, this is my very first post in this thread. Stating that he likely wasn't "broke" but he wasn't crazy paid either.

Not going to shyt on KH. Dude got to where he's at by putting in work not asking for handouts or dikkriding for a feature. And on top of that he pulled up a lot of his circle with him. :salute:

If all these other industry rivals who everybody thinks is funnier would stop hating and start working, they'd be banking like him too. I listened to that whiny ass Epps video of him crying and acting like KH got handed everything :camby:

Go ahead an believe KH let himself get fukked in bootiehole by some jew producer to get his spot :sas1:

Come on, there's no way in 2010 you could foresee Kevin Hart taking off like he has. He didn't land his first feature role until 2012. This was the type of movie he was doing in 2011. Budget of $100,000

35 and Ticking - Wikipedia
Brah, he had 2 huge stand up specials from 2009 - 2011

He was in like 20 movies by that point.

He was probably easily clearing six figures or more by 2010 or 2011. I'm being real conservative here because I don't know his finances but, I'mma guess he was seeing good bread before he really blew up.

That's not broke. Plenty of chicks in LA would've saw him as a comeup.

This is multipled by the fact he was all over TV and urban media.
