His self-esteem is dope. He doesn't seem easily bothered by anything. Just a cool dude.

[@kaoutherferjani3141]

I noticed that these guys don’t understand young, smart, satirical black males. Ctg always ends up trying to bully them despite the fact they’re secure in being different.

[@1david39]

You cannot troll an intellectual.

[@GotGood77]

Bruh Charlemagne extra lame for this interview. Dude personality is so dope. They couldn't even vibe with him because he's on another level

[@RoshaneIngram]

Guy played a character the whole interview. He didn't let them lead him anywhere he wasn't trying to go. Gave just enough information without giving too much information or gossip. Wanna see him in more movies in the future.

Whenever they cast for OutKast’s biopic. Lakeith needs to be 3 stacks.

[@Max25670]

Lakeith too smart for them.

[@kiddrizzl3]

I felt like lakeith could play a young dave chappelle, if they ever decide to make a movie about a young dave.

I hate when you use a big word and people say “how come you didn’t just say___” just because they didn’t know the word!

[@clairevoyant4819]

From the start of this interview they immediately started throwing shade at Lakeith, so he decided to just troll them for the rest of the interview. Charlemagne expressed how he shouldn’t have gotten the role of snoop, he called his skin rough, he said he looked old for his age and that he needed to drink more water. Angela brought up his prison record which was completely irrelevant to the conversation. But Lakeith was supposed to sit there and continue to be graceful to them during this interview?? Lmao FOH!

[@aissatabelle4983]

whos here three years later because of the beef

[@quincyvadan9176]

I really like the Breakfast club. But this thing that they do where they ostracize quirky black people needs to stop. This dude's intelligence is vast and they basically belittled him throughout the entire interview. Shit needs to stop. This dude is dope!

[@RuizMrs]

He gives me the vibe of one of those Lowkey geniuses who don't give af what no one thinks. I've been following his career since Selma and I think that he's a young Sam Jackson

[@cmg7604]

He played them this entire interview. 😂

[@HisGoldenGirl]

The irony in CTG trying to diss his acting skills and the whole time LaKeithe is acting his ass off and CTG is believing the act!!! I love it!!! He played the hell out of CTG!

"Everyone across the globe got dysfunctional families. The question is to what degree?" -Lakeith Stanfield 2016

[@CullenCochran]

this dude is inspirational. he's living life like one huge art project.

[@Max25670]

They don't even know he was trolling them the whole time.

[@jamescooper5542]

i digg his dry humor lol

[@MediumKey]

His genius exposes the basicness of the breakfast club hosts
