Damon Wayans Reveals Why He Never Became The Next Eddie Murphy

Damon Wayans Reveals Why He Never Became The Next Eddie Murphy.
Damon grew increasingly frustrated feeling that his sketches were not given consideration. Tired of being a background player, he decided to deviate from the script in a sketch called Monopoly Man. Instead of playing his part as written, Damon improvised. He went showy and effeminate. Lorne Michaels fired Wayans after the show.

Why do you keep showing Damon Wayans Jr. when you’re not even referring to him?

[@seekinghimdaily92]

*You take this channel seriously?* 🤔

[@myronking7895]

So disrespectful that's his son. I guess all blacks look the same.

[@praiseismyposture]

Because they do not really know who he is, they just google and what ever pictures come up, that is what they are using

[@bodhibaby5371]

Fuckin thank you....😢...Im like wtf that's his son..why do they keep doing it??

[@leonardpigg6441]

They don't even pronounce his last name right through half the video.

[@WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot9]

KZbin really needs to start cracking down more on these robot-narrated videos

[@angelharris6954]

Idk who did the research for this but I know a bunch of people who love Blackman, Mo Money and Major Pain. They may not have done well in the box office but those are cult classics!! And it’s not just Damon, the Wayans family is considered the first family of comedy but were sidelined because they wouldn’t conform to the industry. That’s why most of their projects are written, produced and directed by them.

[@apathy11303]

This part!!! As much as people hate on the Wayans family, they did their thing… In addition, whenever they put on dresses, it was for skips written, produced, and acted by them… Not sure if that makes it better🤷🏾‍♂️🐒

[@williamculclasure425]

yea..why do they keep showing his son

[@blunt2416]

This is B.S.... the main reason why most of Damons movies flopped was because the critics don't know sht. Most of Damons movies did what they were intended to do, make us laugh. The critics used to be over critical about most black comedies in the 80s & 90s

[@paullebon323]

This is one of those foreign videos written by someone who doesn't speak English well and narrated by a robot.

[@MuhammadAli-Lateef]

I noticed that

[@AuthorRahsaanAli]

The Last Boy scout was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Great slapstick comedy. Chemistry between Satan's and Willis was superb.

[@BnardFord]

Bro this is definitely white America lol i promise everything she said was a bust was a hit in the black community we love the entire wayans family

[@coraterrell1362]

Yes, stop showing his son .

[@archersmith869]

Seeing Damon in colors and his scene with the rabbit 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@aureliusleslie173]

Where was Katt Williams during Damon career. I'm fully understanding why Katt Williams is so, so, so needed now.

[@Rich-mr4jz]

Katt a sellout too, but he is talented one of thee Best but you don't get even 1 MINUTE OF AIRTIME without playing THE GAME you wanna play you gotta pay don't be fooled my friend. They can deny it but all the Wayans sold out.

[@abattles8651]

One of the most underrated & talented family I’ve ever seen. They was blackballed on purpose because they wrote so much. Scary Movie was stolen from them & watered down 🌽

[@JAWrightonline]

The A.I. narrator says, "FOX was uncomfortable with the humor," while showing Jamie Foxx. The network was uncomfortable, not the future Oscar-winning actor.

[@misane2212]

I’m gonna get you sucker is one of the greatest movies of all time you probably don’t understand that shit like Friday where im from

[@ChrisJones-cu7mb]

Shid, Major Payne is a cult classic wit "US"🤷🏾

[@dwightlove3704]

Damon wore women's clothing on IN LIVING COLOR along with David Alan Grier

[@dwightlove3704]

@@Dead2myself1 Bingo!!! I saw him in person once he made a comment about MAGIC JOHNSON AND ISIAH THOMAS saying that he heard Magic blew a Piston!!!!!

[@dwightlove3704]

​@@Dead2myself1He played a gay character in Beverly Hills Cop

[@dwightlove3704]

@@Systematicallylone102 Nothing shocks me about ppl in Hollywood and he made a statement about ISIAH THOMAS AND MAGIC JOHNSON and it was in a intimate nature during a routine at a place called RASCALS in my home state of NJ.

[@melapierce9359]

Learn to properly say these folks names please.

[@clarencejohnson2737]

PLEASE LEARN HOW TO PRONOUNCE THESE PEOPLE'S NAMES!!!!

[@93lbBALDSPOTSonya]

Yes

[@HisGaze]

He should have not been chasing money and did what came naturally tbh and that is stand up or just being funny. Writing, improv and standup. I guess everyone feels they need to go after the money. It’s like being a dayum good nurse or nurse practitioner but then you feel you have to leave that position to become a doctor to feel you’ve arrived, but you not the best doctor. That being said, I love love love “Major Payne”

[@robertjones8771]

🙏🏾🤔Prayers for Mr.Damon Wayans💪🏽🎤

[@93lbBALDSPOTSonya]

Yes 😢

[@MiSoScraben]

The narrator mispronounced the family's name. It's pronounced like "Waynes" not "Why-ans." The narrator, also, mispronounced Arsenio's name. It's like "Ar-Sin-E-O" & not "Ar-Seen-E-O." Another mispronunciation was JROTC, which is pronounced as individual letters & not "Jar-O-T-C." There's even a mispronunciation of Dan Aykroyd's last name. It's pronounced as "Ack-Roid" & not "Ike-Roid." A mispronunciation of the term Dramedy. It's pronounced as "Drah-Ma-Dee" & not "Dram-Ah-Dee." A mispronunciation of Cheech Marin's last name. It's pronounced as "Mare-In" & not "Marine." Mispronounced Aria. It is pronounced as "Ar-E-Ah" & not as "Area." As another commenter, namely @beebee_, wrote, you show his son, Damon Wayans, Jr., rather than him for the talk show clips when you say the father's name.

[@michaeljones7929]

The narrator is a computer generated voice

[@MiSoScraben]

@@michaeljones7929 That's awkward, as it says some of the stuff properly a few times & erroneously the rest of the time. For computer-generated voices, they typically pronounce the words/names the exact same way every time they say it. So, they are really trying to make them more humanlike, if that is the actual situation.

[@michaeljones7929]

@@MiSoScraben the way she talks has no emotion in it. No passion, no excitement when dropping gossip you can just tell

[@luckygnome]

She's a demon. She can't pronounce certain vowels

[@VeraHarmon-n6w]

They keep showing the wrong Damon Wayans.

[@RasDerby]

Your mispronouncing of his name is annoying as hell 🫤😒

[@TexanEagleFan]

BlankMan is classic🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

[@ramborico6677]

They tripping on Blackman . That movie funny then a mf 😂 🤦🏾‍♂️And Major Payne a classic

[@skibootdier9488]

7:47 Pay cheerleaders a living-wage? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Maybe the NFL should do what Formula #1 did and get rid of all of them. Your payment is EXPOSURE to worldwide networks and multi-millionaire athletes!

[@TheFirstTEE1]

"Damon and Keenan" Posts picture of Damon Wayans Jr. And Keenan Thompson 😂😂

[@antoinewilson4369]

Bro this person is saying disrespectful stuff why do they play all his movies multiple times a year if it wasn't hit movies vs they just pushing a negative narrative

[@jasondrabolton847]

This family has a way with comedy. I stood on hope that they would resurface and lead. 😢

[@jadaivory3217]

I'm sorry but when I heard black man was a failure movie I honestly feel like somebody is hating that movie is a classic just like most of his movies I don't know what the box office is talking about it seem like they tried to black ball him if you ask me

[@bomatthews9352]

Shout out to you people who can sit and watch this shit and it keep saying wayaaaayuns. Who the fuck is the waaaaayuuuuns. It’s the Wayne’s got damn AI can’t talk 😂😂😂😂😂

[@adampayne1997]

I loved all Damon Wayans movies …I love BlankMan

[@thelog86]

He was definately the next comedian on line. He is super funny. I feel like when comedians can do skits instead of just cussin andctalking about sex isthe key and he has it

[@SebastianManjurlpurr-u8x]

I'm an Aboriginal man 44 yrs old he was a good Actor in the 90s Mo money and his elder brother Keenan I forgot his film,oh the movie Shame 👍

[@bflossthegod5370]

He’s super underrated🔥🔥🔥

[@daoyang223]

Super underrated. I still think hes funny. But people have forgotten about him. Me. I still think about him from timw to time. I always wondered why he disappeared. Hes been in a few indie projects since then

[@asianshow6718]

DAMON WAYANS SHOULD COME BACK DOING AN TOM HANKS, DRAMA ONLY... Start with Law and Order Svu

[@MrWonkawonka]

Beginning of the video she was pronouncing his last name wrong. Then started pronouncing correctly. Then started pronouncing wrong again. Smh

[@teneshajohnson8590]

Why did they keep showing Damon Jr when they were talking about Damon?

[@warrencohenjr276]

This video is trash and not well made at all. You mostly show his son, Damon Jr, and when referring to Fox network, you show the actor, Jamie Foxx. As well as neglecting to address Blankman and Major Payne become cult classics.

[@EscobarReady]

This whole video is AI Generated wtf. At least review your video before putting out inaccurate content.

[@mamayake]

He didn't rise to the top because he ALWAYS acted juvenile. In movies, tv shows, stand up... and that 'race' card - no bueno.

[@cliffpostell508]

Dude! What is with all of these weird AI generated videos? This is so weird. Did the computers take over already? LOL!

[@sty723]

Dude left his lane, that’s why. The machine talking doesn’t say Wayans right. Oh well, my last name was mispronounced for decades! My dad told me the real days before he died. Then my brother committed suicide.

[@christophermoore5328]

I forgot alot of those movies. But I have only fond memories of Damon. Dude was hilarious.

[@lamontjohnson-xx1qe]

Man stop it Damon Wayans always played a fruit cake in In Living Colors

[@K3YM8KR503]

This entire video is a ChatGPT search result. Even the voiceover is not a real person. Listen to how it pronounces "Wayans" inconsistently multiple times. I'm tired of these fake text-to-speech voiceover videos!

[@jameslewis8705]

Why do she keep butchering everybody name????

Also, mispronouncing everyone's name 🙄‼️💯

[@duncanbauer7309]

With all the money lost on his flops, they didn't Blackball him, they threw in the towel. They weren't doing stuff for fun, if it don't make money, it don't make sense. They finally told him to Kick Rocks.

Blankman had that Ribert Townsend corney vibe

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

Damon Wayans does not have Eddie Murphy's oversized personality, brashness, versatility or stunning sense of timing.

[@slimdude2011]

Eddie Murphy was never that funny to me as a comedian because, he was a copycat of Richard Pryor. He was not original! Eddie Murphy tried and wanted to be like Richard Pryor, and it was obvious.
