fukk this goof troop talking about? :dahell: Good thing aint no one paying your hoe ass to think :mjlol:


I have no problem criticizing Corey or other ppl criticizing the show. I think we all want Corey to be at his best, but I also understand the logistics and management of it all.

Besides 85 South, Corey is like the only 1-man successful independent show. All the overhead falls on him. Renting the location, buying the equipment, paying the sound engineers/staff. All that falls on him and I know that shyt is draining, yet self-rewarding at the same time. So I give mercy to the bruh when shyt dont go right. He drops all this free content for the 5150 nation, I'll critique and criticize when appropriate but I aint going overboard like some nikkas in the comments :manny:
I wouldn’t call Coreys show successful. He has 188k subs and he been doing the show for over a decade. 85 south show got over 1 million doing their show for half that time. Corey is like the naturally gifted athlete that we all knew growing up that lacked the work ethic because everything came easy. There’s no excuse for the shoddy production and still not having a location to do the podcast. Look at drink champs, joe budden, 85 south show, hell look at gradys show. You can go back to coreys shows from 5 years ago and see no evolution or growth. He’s actually regressing because the show is actually get less funny every week. He was one of the first in the game doing his podcast since 2010 yet dont even know how to do a basic podcast setup. When Darlene was out for 2 weeks with COVID he wouldn’t even handle the merchandise. Kraig tried to put him on to NFTs that can get him minimum $100k right now and he literally said “I’ll pay someone to just do all that for me.” You can’t call someone a hater for giving constructive criticism.

I hear your criticisms and agree with most, but you not hearing me fam. The difference between 5150 show and all the others, is Corey is doing and paying for everything by himself. 100% independent. Why you think he's one of the few who can speak freely on his platform as a black man?

- Drink Champs is on Revolt
- JBP was with Spotify
- 85 South is independent but they are A TEAM. a matter of fact didnt they partner with Charlamagne b4 Covid hit?
- Grady show looks good, but he's not doing it by himself. He's getting help and favors from folks thats why he's always in new locations.
- Hell, Kraig Facts show production has good, but again he's not in his own shyt. He's using Brown from Pharcyde studio and if Brown aint around Kraig and crew gotta re-locate.

It is whats is, I think many fans really take for granted how hard it is to do a full video broadcasting podcast show week-in and week-out independently by your damn self with ALL the liability and financial responsibility.

Corey can do better, true but I'm not gone hold him cause I understand the fight he's going through.

All of those shows had the same level of production quality and content BEFORE they got partnerships and sponsors. The location has nothing to do with production quality and content. Kevin samuels does his show out of hotel rooms and his camera quality and setup is A1. His content doesn’t change. Joe budden does his podcast in parks living room, the content doesn’t change. 85 south show did their show on the road and a whole tour because the content is funny and entertaining. The actual content of the 5150 show is regressing. He spends 1/3 of the entire show making fun of Marcus and Darlene. Same jokes over and over again. He got 50 year old elderly Darlene picking the topics that nobody cares about and can barely read. How many times we watch the show and him and Darlene arguing for 30 mins while the cohosts just sitting there? The show is dying in a time where podcasts are exploding. You could say doing a broadcast in 2010 was hard but not in 2021. All you need is internet, a light, microphones, a mixer, and a camera. Thats it. There are literally thousands of people doing their on podcasts every week that dont have anywhere near the resources, following, or money that Corey has. You got children making millions streaming on twitch. It’s not expensive, it just takes initiative. Corey has always had a team. He just doesn’t respect them and their input. He called zo the weakest link but what does Marcus add to the show? Every time he talks Corey makes fun of his accent. He had Darlene, Marcus, zo, Chris, frank, freeze, Sara, kraig, Bobby, nate, etc. They all leave because the show is stagnant.

Bruh I don't mind debating u back and forth but you gotta start using paragraphs and proper spacing. These walls of text are getting arduous to read. :snoop:

Basically 3 points

1. Corey being independent has nothing to do with the actual content of the show regressing. He spends 1/3 of the show making fun of Darlene and Marcus with the same jokes over and over again. You got some shows where he’s having a real argument with Darlene while his guests just sit there awkwardly.

2. It’s not expensive to do a podcast in 2021. You have children making money online via YouTube and twitch. You got thousands of adults doing podcasts and YouTube videos every week of higher quality without sponsors. Corey has the money, he just lacks initiative and drive.

3. Corey has always had a team he just doesn’t respect their input. Darlene handles all of his merchandise, website, and studio setup but he constantly undermines her and allows the fans to as well. He just called zo the weakest link and kicked him off the show. What does Marcus bring to the show?

Here’s a huge way to get more views and subscribers: Corey could take clips of funny moments of his show and upload them to the channel like joe Rogan and everyone else does. For instance, I wanted to hear some of the old songs they do but I don’t know what episode they’re on. He had a fan doing this for him for free but he reported the fan and didn’t want him getting views. Hater shyt. You to lazy to do it for yourself but you got a fan doing it for free and you report them.

you're onto something



It will. You brothas REALLY need to do research. Cryptocurrency is going to create the great transfer of wealth. We can’t just sit around hoping the white man will give us reparations. NFT’s are more so for celebrity’s and artists with a following. You got youtubers and musicians creating NFT’s and making millions literally overnight. Kraig tried to put Corey on game but typical Corey holcomb isn’t proactive on anything. He won’t even sell his own merch. When Darlene had COVID, no orders were being fulfilled until she got back 2 weeks later.

.. i was on another forum and saw this in the comments about Corey holcomb son

We gotta ask Corey "did his son who is doing jail time right now really rape that boy? Is your son a Chester?? Is your son allowed within 50 metres of schools and playareas?"

So i googled it..



:dahell: Is this true? the one he brought up to the show?

I remember he said that might be his son. I’m like you’re not going to find out?? He’s clearly in need of a father in his life and you might be his father. Corey is my favorite comedian but the more I hear about his personal life, he sounds more and more like a piece of shyt. I don’t judge people but he’s the one always talking about “stand on it” you can’t be a stand on it nikka if you got children running around that you not acknowledging.

Thats not the one he brought in the show. That’s the one Grady was referring to when he said you let another man raise your son. This is a child that Corey said could be his but he won’t find out. He’ll let a potential child of his go without a father just because he worried about child support
