[@joshythehand2960]

There's a funny story about this bit. This routine was filmed in North d.c... most of the black folks in that area have good gov jobs, college educated, it's def a middle class black crowd. And they loved the bit. Next week he did the same show in Oakland.. the audience had a lot of ganstas in it.. and they were threatening to kill him for calling them stupid. Security and the police had to rush him out of the venue as soon as the show ended. Shows the divide, at the time, amoung black folks.. 2 totally different cultures amoung one people. Goes to show you can't pigeon hole anybody because of their color. There is no broad brush.

So true. Some people think native Americans where all the same to. We're not. No demographic is.

[@joshythehand2960]

@@stevenwilliams1805 absolutely. I lived in Arizona for years. And there is even a huge cultural difference among nations in that one state. The white mountain apache are far different from the pima.. and both are far different than the Navajo. I had friends among each and I swear I could tell which nation someone was from by their mannerisms.. long before they told me.

[@tedluebke7032]

I know there's all different types of crowds that is totally true but if people can't laugh at themselves when a lot of it is based on truth and history and I'm talking history just like the last 30 40 years I've never been to Oakland so I can't say what it's like there but what I can say if you open up a business that's restaurant or Club related in any City if you start attracting people that are going to scare other people away your business is not going to make it! And when I say the people that are going to scare business away it doesn't matter the race it could be black it could be white it could be Asian it could be motorcycle clubs it's a very complex situation for what example look what happened to Baldwin Hills Mall which is now a ghost town it could happen anywhere in any City in the world and if people don't believe that then just continue to believe that everything is fine in the world Chris Rock just had the balls to say it

"Bigger and Blacker" and "Bring the Pain" were two of my favorite specials when I was younger.

Just imagine if this dude's prime was after Comedy Central started. edit: I think through discussion I've realized when I say before comedy was mainstream, I mean before Comedy Central lowered the bar of what it takes to be a successful comedian.

[@doormouse2994]

I'd like to agree but Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Andrew Dice Clay, and im sure others were huge before this as well. I think this may have hit more mainstream though due to the internet vs VHS tapes, HBO specials and such though.

That's why, for me, it is so refreshing to sometimes here you guys' perspective on anything because you represent the regular black people, who I would probably never get to hear from otherwise. It's a nice change of pace and I hope you never shy away from it :)

[@serenenana8821]

I agree with you completely.

[@lk_c7214]

I love that you guys are watching this! Bring the Pain is the best comedy special I’ve ever seen and 20+ years later, it’s STILL just as relevant and hilarious as when I watched it ‘96! Chris is 100% the GOAT and this special solidified his status. I’d definitely recommend watching the whole special, as well as the Chris Rock show; that’s where the world was introduced to the one and only Wanda Sykes! 🤣🤣🤣

[@brianroof8613]

Always enjoyable. Articulate, sharp, thought provoking young men. Thank you for the love and goodness you are spreading!

That Bone Thugs-N-Harmony line always kills me 6:05.

You should watch his old stand up specials, Bring the pain and Bigger and blacker are good AF.

[@zonedout5998]

I love the middle guy’s reaction. He really gets a kick out of it and laughs hard.

[@DamienYuen7718]

Chris grew up during the crack wars of the 80's He saw a lot of crazy shit. There are two groups of people in the ghetto. The good who are stuck there trying to get out and then the bad people who you want to get away from. I hope all the good people make it out to a better and safer life.

[@actionjackson620]

Top 3 Reaction Channels hands down. Y’all got such a vibe about y’all and y’all are HIIILARIOUS! 😂😂🤣Keep going KINGS! 👑

[@radioactive_moose]

There is an episode of The Office where Steve Carrell gets in trouble for re-enacting this bit doing a Chris impersonation. It's hilarious.

[@surfghost9121]

Stumbled on this channel and find myself watching it all the time. Love watching the reactions. So infectious and fun. Good luck to you guys.

[@byronicman]

One of the greatest comedy routines of all time.. This and Dana Carveys special round the same time shaped the comedy and jokes of most GenXers my age..

[@roriemarie2968]

If you haven't seen the Dana Carvey that came out a few years ago it is hilarious

[@byronicman]

@@roriemarie2968 I did! Was great!

[@mikelally97]

I was in college when I scored free tix from to this show at Radio City Music Hall. I had waited for hours for an audience slot to SNL, and I was next in line when they said the studio was full. Rob Lowe was the host and The Spice Girls were the musical act. Dejected, my buddy and I walked away and saw that Chris Rock was performing right around the corner and RCMH. When we saw the ticket prices they were way out of our price range. Then an old couple outside the venue said that they didn't feel like going to the show and asked us if I wanted their tickets. WHAT!!!! Heck yeah!!! Took our seats and realized I was sitting right behind NBA legend, Dr. J. It was awesome....though, as a white dude, I was kind of scared that if I laughed too hard at this part of Rock's monologue that Dr. J would swat me upside the head. Great memories!

[@mil2k11]

Chris was the perfect guy to pick up the reigns left by Eddie. He had no filter and that's what made comedians great. Legend.

[@joshkelley6913]

Y’all should do Chris Rocks misogyny in rap. Love the videos!

[@ChrisLA7878]

I watched this special so many times and I feel like Rock is the only person who could do this bit. Eddie Murphy is probably my favorite stand up comedian and I don't know if he could do it the way Chris Rock does. What he says applies to every race, that's just part of the human race, but its just Rock's ability to tell a story that makes it hilarious. Yall do a good job, I enjoy watching yall videos.

[@patriciadavis1393]

Back in the day Chris Rock his stand-up was legendary now he doesn't have the same Edge he's still amazing but back in the day he was another level😊😊😊😊😊

[@michelebaxter]

Chris Rock, "Never Scared", ANY part. The Jacksons skit is hilarious.

[@Richie8406]

This is part of my childhood/adolescence. Love Chris Rock. Also I cherish that time. The 90's, when people said crazy shit, and no Karen reported him.

[@Richie8406]

CR has some points on humanity.

[@jeremyhowell-jwh32]

Love You All! You inspired me to start playing music again when i saw the Metallica Master of Puppets reaction. Priceless stuff Brothers keep Rollin.

[@shannonwaters719]

Dude, I remember when this stand up came out..... It was groundbreaking. Like, on the level of George Carlin, Richard Pryor truth-telling. Watch the whole standup, it gets better and better. I think this is the one where he talks about bullet control too

[@patriciagrace8439]

I love Chris Rock...i laugh so hard that i cry laugh🤣😂🤣..hes so adorable and how he describes shit...if u wanna see a funny ass movie from the 90s look up: Boomerang...it has Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence, Chris Rock, Halle Berry...that movie was HILARIOUS...a classic for sure👍👍

[@christystewart6357]

Its not wrong that you agree with him. Chris rock is a hilarious man who is just on point. Your allowed to feel how you feel regardless of what anyone else might think🤷🏻

[@rachelhronis1966]

First time watching you guys today and absolutely loved all of your reactions ❤️❤️❤️. Great chemistry between all of you, and your personalities are infectious and endearing 🤗. Chris Rock is definitely a beast of a comic, and slayed the dragon 🐉 out there! Amazing !! 🤩🤩

[@frankmoscarelljr4624]

I'm old enough to remember this when it came out, and was almost too shocked to laugh, but did anyway 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Definitely stands the test of time, priceless. I loved the reaction at 3:23

I love this channel because it’s all about a growth mindset. My favorite thing.

[@totalSLACK]

Patrice O'Neal and Bill Hicks for that Mt Rushmore of comedy...

[@zeragon7]

lol legendary bit. As a white dude I almost feel uncomfortable laughing at some of the stuff in this bit, but it's objectively hilarious. I think the reason it works so well is because he draws a clear distinction between the two groups and makes it clear that he's fed up with the way certain people act, not those people themselves; it's a critique of certain people within his community rather than just a group of people, if that makes sense. Also I think it's surprisingly relatable to all people, because it basically is a rant about how annoying ignorant people are. We all know certain people in our lives that are just constantly getting it wrong and they think they know everything, regardless of their skin color.

Don't feel awkward about things that are true.

[@anastasiamurawski6179]

@@jasonpoolo3523 But, if a white comedian said the things that Chris Rock says, he or she would get stomped on for it. A lot of the things these guys say, white people have been saying for a long time, but unless it comes from one of their own, it's usually considered racist. Why is that?

So glad yall can laugh! We laugh at white jokes too, they're just jokes. CR was very popular back in my day. You should see in him in "I'm Gonna Get You Sucka", when he asked how much for just 1 rib! So funny! 🤣 Great seeing your reactions tho 😉

Not sure if you have done it yet but "How not to get your ass kicked by the police" Chris Rock is legendary. Love the channel guys. Great job.

OMG I was literally going to make this comment. That PSA was hysterically funny.

[@patsysadowski1546]

‘You supposed to look after your kids’ is the funniest line ever.

[@JPMadden]

Other people have similar experiences, except for the racism. Half my family is Italian-American, and I've got a couple of idiot cousins who could have been extras on "The Sopranos" or "The Jersey Shore." Think of Eddie Murphy's imitation of an Italian guy who's just seen a Rocky movie.

[@adamplona9438]

I am in my 40's I remember when this came out. Don't forget Richard Pryor!!! he came first and was just as funny. Eddie Murphy's special "Raw" was pretty memorable too. I grew up watching Red Fox and Sanford and Sons, sarcastic comedy has been around longer than I thought. Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder were a great combo.
