Nipsey Russell - Charming COMEDIAN & poet on Match Game | BUZZR

Julius "Nipsey" Russell known as "the poet laureate of comedy" was a comedian, poet, veteran, and dancer. He was the first black man to become a regular on a network game show, Missing Links. For BUZZR fans, he may be most familiar as a panelist on Match Game, To Tell The Truth and What's My Line, among others. Nipsey was a game show mainstay from 1960- 1990, regularly sharing topical, poignant, comedic poems. We wanted to share this episode of Match Game with you to celebrate Nipsey as part of Black History Month on BUZZR.

I would’ve said “Charles Manson” for the Osmond question. The complete opposite of the Osmonds.

[@RicDube]

That was a weird one because to me the obvious answer was "booze" because the Osmonds were famous non-drinkers at a time when that was considered crazy and odd. I didn't think it was too way out to not use a person's name, but then nobody did that.

[@Powerranger-le4up]

I probably would’ve said priest as well. I’m Catholic myself and we don’t exactly get along too well with Mormons especially when it comes to marriage.

[@garymartin6987]

First thing came to me was Ozzy Osbourne

The opposite of pro- is con- That fact is clearly seen. But if progress means to move forward Then what does Congress mean?

A time when everyone was sane, no one got offended, people actually talked to themselves to have fun. 🤌🏾✨
