Patrice O'Neal definitely the most unrecognized genius of this comedy game,all the greats agree that he should have been that guy but his inner contrarian and disruptive character fukked his trajectory up.Right now I think Ali Siddiq,Bill Burr are my favorites. Overrated imo is a list too long to write down but Kat Williams,Tiffany Haddish,Bert Kreischer,Ari Shaffir,Amy Schumer,Pete Davidson,Jo Koy,Tom Segura etc I find to be underwhelming to say the least but the list of comedians just coasting on one moment of connection is long as fukk.

I agree with your overrated list.

But I do like Tom Segura a little.

There’s this fat creep who is trending who is highly overrated. Stavros Halkias. He sucks.

Sebastian Maniscalco has never made me laugh. I don’t know why he’s big at all.

Underrated: Mark Normand.

Three underrated greats off the top of my head. A true comedian is a philosopher who can make heavy topics light and entertaining but resonate in your brain after the performance and its also why, historically, they were the only ones who could speak truth to power and keep their heads.



Read between the lines and you'll see the invisible ink that penned the script which had Will smacking Chris a few days after a German rapper did the same to another comedian. Everyone is a actor, some get paid for it and pay in ways you'd never suspect from the outside looking in... Thats why Patrice didn't play the game but boy did he leave loads of hints and clues about what actually goes on beneath the curtain.

I definitely don’t agree with the majority of your post but Sinbad is 100% underrated. He’s the only comedian that I can think of that can have me crying laughing without being vulgar. He deserves his flowers.
