Louis C.K's standup is more funny to me than guys like Kevin Hart/Kat Williams

How can you say that you'd have to be a tom not to like the names above when several of them are tapdancers themselves (Steve Harvey, for example?)

First off, fukk you bytch nikka and second off that nikka is a white boy in a black man's body, third and lastly fukk you.
This is bullshyt.... Kevin Hart's material just isn't THAT funny... Rock, Murphy, Red Fox, Jamie Foxx, Pryor, Chapelle, and even Mooney are ALL GREAT.... I understand the TS was trolling racial lines with his post, but don't take the bait and make equally stupid comments...

this is what im talking about, how do you know that to be true? maybe just maybe its because people think he IS funny. See kevin hart appeals to a wider audience than louis ck, thats why he is so popular, louis C.K is more of an aquired taste, and thats not a diss.

There were only 6 people listed though, friend.
I dont think Kevin Hart deserves the hate. He has his "brand" of comedy, like Dane Cook (but hes waaay better than Dane was) where he uses a lot of slapstick elements and over-the-top voices and movements to get a cheesy laugh. Dude is genuinely funny, but he resorts to a lot of cliches which is kinda disappointing. Cant hate on him tho, hes doing well for himself
He will never be mentioned among the greats like Pryor and Carlin, who Louis and Rock mold themselves after, where they put their whole heart into the act (to the point where it gets painfully personal and awkward at times) and really make you think and challenge what we define as "humor". I dont think Hart cares tho. He has a much younger, much less critical and much more female, audience

Good perspective right here... Especially the bolded...

Louis CK is that DUDE. I find most white comedians funnier than black comedians. They talk about something as normal as walkin to the store, and bumping to an old friend, and they make it funny. Black comedian notes contain: sex, whippings, black/white, sex, black/white, etc.

To you he just isn't that funny but millions of people disagree with you. The Illuminati doesn't force people into liking Kevin Hart or force executives to put him on television. A lot of people think he is seriously funny. There are comedians to fit everyones sense of humor. Just because one person loves Mitch Hedberg as I do, doesn't mean they will also like Earthquake or Bruce Bruce. I actually think Dane Cook is pretty funny but some cats will swear he is the worst comedian since carrot top. Moral of the story is, "what other people eat, doesn't make you shyt"
I saw a Kevin hart special and in the first 15 minutes he kept going on about his money was in some checking account, first time he said it was okay, but he repeated that premise about 5 times in 15 minutes, "my money is in a checking account......".
He seems more about his personality than his jokes honestly.
SAY IT WITH YOUR CHEST
He said that same phrase about 57 times in an hour, when it wasn't even funny in the first place
Had me
Seems like Hart and Katt had one good special, and the rest were trash, they're just eating off their reputation

oh so u one of them nikkas that say BIG aint one of the best ever cuz he 'wasnt around long enough' right? Daves run >>> Chris Rock's long ass overrated ass career in stand up, I seen them mention this dude next 2 Louis C.K Seinfeld and that obnoxious British cac that invented the office like one of the comedy greats of modern times... when you do something for that long they give legend status just becuz, Chris Rock's movies >>>>>> his stand up by FAR
I wouldn't go that far. All of Chris Rock's comedy specials are classic even that last one that made Black people extremely uncomfortable. I love Dave Chapelle and I think at one point he was the funniest comedian in America, but Chris Rock >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
But as for Louis CK, dude has been fire for the past decade. He's arguably a top 5 standup comedian Black, White or otherwise.
In terms of standup, Rock >>>>>>>>>> Chapelle
I dont think its even remotely close. Chapelle Show was classic and pushed boundaries in terms of racial humor, but Daves standup is not as memorable IMO.
He doesnt have a "Bigger And Blacker" or "Bring The Pain" to his name
