So happy to see mo he come long way so proud to see him made it 🎉.

[@Disc0infern088]

Same, I went to school with Mo and I always think back to when our English teacher said to him "Mo, you won't get anywhere in life being a class clown" 😂

[@ryanbrown5197]

Yeah he drank the golden juice

[@babypicassoeisenstein]

@@Disc0infern088 which school?

So proud of this guy, he's done so well. From "Get a couple cans love" to THIS!!!!

[@jahsoldier3297]

Have ya watched the o2 special black British takeover? It's on here

[@Yxsufyt]

Mo has come a long way 😂 being on Jimmy Fallon show is mental

[@iamaced479]

They just looking for a new James cordon who will sell out for $$$

[@IWAYAE]

3-4 different accents in 7 minutes. Man and his team are plotting well!! Very good Mo. Very good.

[@solshields]

Every American accent sounded like the same guy

[@shona5512]

​@@solshieldsStereotypical Californian accent. The accent of the black guy standing behind him in Inglewood. Plus the Jamaican accent. Plus the cockney accent. Plus his own voice. There's a distinct difference in them all, perhaps you're just deaf.

[@solshields]

@@shona5512 "every american accent" *brings up cockney and jamaican* maybe you're just illiterate

[@gaztintin3537]

Need to get both Jimmys & Seth on the Big Narstie ……… is America ready for this? 😂😂😂😂😂. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIavlaOEj8R1ntksi=XFedc3P9OiPCohhu

[@Thawhid]

​@solshields ironic of you to call him illiterate 😂

[@MeandMumzyReacts]

Protect Mo at all costs 😂🙏🏼.. The only guy that puts humour in this world without offending anyone and puts smiles on our faces

[@harrytrent13]

That's why he's not funny offensive comedy is the best

[@MeandMumzyReacts]

@@harrytrent13 he is funny though, British humour is about realiting to same life situations and also when you watch Mos stand up everything he says I relate that I use to do the same thing when I was younger

[@harrytrent13]

@MeandMumzyReacts fair enough pal I get that just not the comedy I relate to or enjoy mo seems like a great guy though good to see him doing well

[@HaveIGotMemesForYou]

@@MeandMumzyReactsI’ve been watching him since his insta skits and I knew he was gonna blow up, loved his Netflix specials but weirdly enough when I watched him live at the O2 I really didn’t find that particular set funny

[@robgoudie1540]

He offends me - with how shit his comedy is.

[@clintongraham8885]

Buzzing for Mo. Been following his career from the beginning so it's nice to see his progression. Well done mo, big up yourself.

[@blahface-ju1ts]

the way i smiled throughout this whole interview as if he was my child . so proud

[@justbeingoctavia]

Same here!!!

[@NM-hq1io]

I remember years ago this guy making videos about being a geezer whilst he was working in retail to get by - deserves everything & then some more

[@frankie2gunz]

When you grow up in the inner city of London you can go anywhere in the world and know how to move! Big up Mo!👊👊
