I didn't want Malik's set to end. Brilliantly hilarious!

[@MrJhchrist]

Damn, every single setup I was like "There is no way he pulls this one off". Then I'd laugh, and he'd setup another one and I'm like "yeah, that couldn't last".... laughing. Dude just built a mine field and walked us right through it.

[@texputter7928]

Glad I stumbled across this one, good stuff! Definitely looking forward to more from Malik.

[@andrewazar484]

This set didn't miss! Ending was perfect. This guy is awesome!

[@RockB15]

Dude ! You’re just killing it ! Timing, punchlines, wit behind jokes (“only Him can judge me” gold) So refreshing to see new comedians with such maturity! The floor is yours brother 🫶

[@simonstebbins3838]

I think this was great. He walks a tightrope with these jokes, but does so skilfully, with a good dose of humility and self-reflection.

[@NightMystique13]

Due to his intelligence-brilliant.

you should know comedy is being used to deceive the people and dumb them down

@@theplacebeyondthelies2429Really? I thought it was mindless trolls responsible for all that... I suppose some of them are quite laughable, in their simplicity. Does that mean they count as comedians? If so, I suppose you're spot on.

Awesome! I have been stressin life lately and forgot about stand up. I'm glad I reintroduced it with Malik! Gold my dude.

[@jadari3213]

I rarely laugh out loud to my phone, too embarrassing, but I couldn't help it! The last one was perfect!

[@rayanedemdoum738]

One of the funniest comedians I've seen lately. Jokes on offensive edges but yet not offensive, rather smart, funny and educational! Good job, keep it up !

[@paulseoighemcgee5772]

yep , i agree

[@markjones4457]

Yes, these subjects need to be broached in a gentle, compassionate and mature way, and show the similarities our cultures have and that we all love humour. The divine wants us all to be happy.

[@joronah8650]

Can't remember the last time I laughed myself to tears. This man should be filling up arenas. I hope I can see him in person someday.

[@simpleandsuccess]

Lmao - "Now I make a year, what you make a year. Good Job" too funny

[@adamchristensen2648]

Funny bits, all tied together one after the other, with an all time great closer. This is an awesome set.

[@philipcatuogno2968]

I'm not a comedic expert, but this guy is genuinely funny. Soon, he's going to be a household name. Good luck!

[@notsure1969]

The funny thing is that you don't have to be a comedic expert to have a sense of humor. The comedian is the comedic expert who does the heavy lifting for you. All you have to do is laugh....and buy a ticket 🎟️ of course.

[@optivitanutrition]

comedic expert WTF ? Is that a degree ? 🤣

[@borisos9832]

@@optivitanutrition I feel him, the op philip , so many talking about nuances of timing (measured in 100ths of a second) and punchline and setup, and we commoners (me and him, or he and I, okok) ask wth, why so serious about a joke? So for example Jimmy Carr is an expert and even successful, but I can't swallow him, his looks (ok, he himself can't either), the stance, the voice and the edgyness. No timing theory helping there. I click on some videos with him starring (and spend 50 words right here) because of the intriguing titles. The joke with the salute 3:55 -ish is platinum for me, now that's playing with some "taboos" (the finger, army etc) as a "youngster" (he is not that young) and pulling it off effectively.

[@BimmerBros]

This man is going places, he has that comedic timing and great jokes. Should start a podcast if he hasn’t already

[@motaharehjadidi5875]

I'm here again! Worth rewatching every once in a while.

[@r3fus32d13]

This is one of the best piece of comedy ever!! A perfect mix of self awareness and social commentary. Golden
