Paul Mooney is that dude when it comes to stand up and realness.

[@kshinokevin]

Yup. Mooney helped write for Pryor

[@levis6945]

Paul Mooney is a scary dude he will tell you the truth if you like it or not ask Diana’ Ross daughter.

[@randyjones7176]

I hate how Hot 97 post a tittle like this to get views and start drama, he said nothing bad about Nick Cannon smh

[@charliej5960]

My thoughts exactly. All he did was give his honest opinion, which wasn't even harsh and had a lot of truth behind it. In no way did he "go in" on his movie...

[@yungpdot1000]

exactly randy lol

[@jumboincredible]

hot 97 does anything to get views smh

[@jumboincredible]

Christo Fuzz pretty much 97 use to be hot they just suck now

[@LeanieSigel]

[@darrisgetzbucc]

Mike Epps is my favorite comedian of all time. Funny dude

[@KingTxne]

Of All Time? Woah lol

[@villain815]

[@X3.X3]

Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock take the top 2 for me

[@mookeychase0907]

Mike said 20 years went by and there's never a beef,you just been paying them...

[@cnsmooth]

I wish I had four hands so I could give this comment four hands down

[@fredrickbiggers1627]

Mike epps funny af.

[@DONDIVA1969]

Nick Cannon as Richard Pryor? What next, Stephen A Smith portraying Huey Newton?

[@keavint1]

Now that's funny.

[@zayhertz-deeprest878]

Mark Wahlberg as MLK

[@HxThomison]

[@Newsorecs]

Muhammad Ali is the father of hip hop, he talked more trash, kicked more ass, took on the gov't and had bars, and he was doing this in the sixties one of the most volatile decades in American history.

[@kingkhalid7638]

mohamed ali Is a fucking icon

[@RaiEDT]

“Real nigga say truuuu”

[@frontlineinc1620]

NEWSO I've been saying that...you the first person beside me I've ever "heard" express those sentiments.

[@brownin329]

No. James Brown is.

[@RevolutionaryTxBeast]

Dolomite

[@justblase5270]

I love Richard Pryor too but Bob Marley was talking about the same things in his songs

[@sekaidaniels2062]

Who has a black cerleberties back when they pass as far as reincarnation,of them being displayed in a movie.

[@dwayneking7654]

aaight...&?

[@tashabetta1947]

There are just some movies that should not be made and this is one. I say this because Pryor was such a phenom that it would be too much of a hardship for anyone to capture his essence.

[@purplehaze165]

Yo Mike seems so much more awake than usual lol Good to see him with some energy!

[@babyblueLEGEND]

''directed by Lee Daniels..'' I'll stay home on this one.

[@MrDFJohnson]

babyblueLEGEND Yep, me too.

[@babyblueLEGEND]

Cris LeRoi Exactly.

[@babyblueLEGEND]

Burl Farlington Very ''homo'' but it goes WAY beyond that ,Its worst than you think, I could write a book.

[@Rome7869]

+cmoneyno5 ......that being said, don't forget that your sh¡t stink too............{o¿O}

[@cmoneyno5]

What??? Smh...

[@PriscillaDeaScottpds]

I only have one question, why can't the interviewer's let the guest answer the questions completely before interrupting. It drives me crazy. I would love to hear the guest complete thought, answer for a change. Am I the only one. I also think Mike Epps is one of the most talented comic's today! He always speaks the truth.Love you Mike!

[@deejay1921]

Priscilla Dea' Scott because the people being interviewed are trained to make their answers complex... They can switch topics without answering questions very easily.... What you up to today beautiful

[@Playboynino310]

Priscilla Dea' Scott I was talking about that today with my homie. All the radio shows do that. It's like they try to steal the guests shine and put their 3 cents in. They cut the guests off way too much.

[@RoninAli1]

Priscilla Dea' Scott No you're not the only one. It's irksome. If you know so much about me why even have me on?

[@honeycutt3]

Love Mike Epps.

[@ajahdavis7252]

Mike epps funny as he'll idgaf what any body think

[@relative_vie]

Why does the title make it seem that Mine Epps went in on Nick Cannon on a negative aspect. Rather Mike Epps spoke educatedly on his opinion.

[@JSmith-kh4vo]

+Vie Loi That's what they do to get views

[@themightyninjanerd1012]

+Vie Loi because it's drama filled Hot 97 lol

[@MaximumTruuuth]

'Educatedly' ? Let's look that one up lol

[@amberpeach6948]

Vie Loi click bait LoL

[@cantguard26]

I remember Ricky Smiley played the Santa in Friday After Next

[@zoningfam]

the year 2000 snacks.

[@ZKMGking]

you dont know baby dee thats why you looking at me cause you dont know baby dee!

[@rastheking]

Aite they some tens, but I keep em clean tho.

[@terryjacksonjr4137]

I know my man Mike is gone do amazing with portraying Richard Pryor!

[@AstroknotG]

LMAO @ 10:35 "you know what ebro thats the last time you gone push that button"

[@Truthtella]

I just haven't seen Epps do anything outside of comedy. Being funny is one thing but he has to be able to capture the different facets of Pryor. Not to mention when Pryor was focused he was an amazing actor. Mike had never shown that type of ability.

[@OfSunFlowers]

Ezell Cox he was pretty good in sparkle. in fact, he was the best actor in the film.

[@Eliburgo]

Ezell Cox but what has Nick Cannon done in film that shows he's qualified for the role he sucked in chiraq been terrible since drum line he's not a great actor by any stretch of the imagination.

[@YoungBlaze]

Maaaaaaaaaaan "The Title is misleading, "he doesnt "GO IN" he just had a personal respected opinion str8 to the point

[@travisfrye7040]

he killed the Rickey smiley impression on spot!!!! he's too funny 😂😂😂😂

[@seanjohn864]

Mike epps talented as hell,

[@sonboogie]

mike is a natural fool. thats what makes him, him.

[@VivianMarieBlack]

I saw Nick Cannon transforming into Richard Pryor and I think he would have killed it

[@LarryBanks85]

Wow I love this interview I can't wait to see the movie and I def think Mike Epps can def play this role!

[@anthonymazzini1976]

mike epps nd dave chappelle are the only comedians that can freestyle a whole 1hr set.... no writing no WRITERS jus talent nd comedic genius!

[@AllPureSkill]

Ohhhh so that's where Eazy E got that quote from?! That Richard Pryor bit

[@djpanrasdaversiteoldschool8912]

Yo Epps is a friggin CLOWN.. "U want some of my Popsicle, NAHH NAH NAH NAAH NAAAH!!!!!" I CRIED!!! lmfaaao

[@410rockstarkid]

good ricky smiley impression lol

[@sbb1sun326]

Richard Pryor is the greatest comic ever and that's a fact not who came first but who elevated the game to such a degree its being mimicked to this day. Ergo Michael Jordan Michael Jackson and Prince nuff said.

[@joshlance6138]

what is the song in the background at 8 mins its bothering so much i should know it

[@miaroscfala]

How DARE Nick Cannon even THINK about portraying Pryor.

[@KENNYPAUL2]

Said it before nick cannons a try hard

[@sgthjennings]

I think Mike will do a decent job on the Pryor role. Big ups homie...

[@str8wstcst1]

man right on you guys! my two main dudes!!!

[@strauqq1]

Love Mike epps!

[@jayrich28]

Shout Out to the Fam !! Rickey Smiley!!!!

[@Helmuesi911]

Nick cannon doing the made for tv version... Might as well be on Lifetime.

[@melissabyrd9660]

I Love you Mike Epps ha ha ha ha ha ha 😎

[@HDliketheTV]

Mike is perfect for Richard Pryor.

[@preyproductions1]

Great work , there Mike Epps.....

[@PankysPen]

Oprah, Lee Daniels, it's gonna be horrible....

[@tashabetta1947]

Precisely.

[@pitchblacktv9278]

Whats the name of the song at 1:16?

[@Mr1and14orth]

Cezar and Coba is in New York right now and they taking back the CITY! Lmao!

[@chrissy1317]

Happy for Mike Epps perfect to play Richard Pryor! Who will play "David Banks" Richards long time friend and producer of 3 of Richard's best albums. Grammy Award albums! Eddie Griffin should play David Banks for sure, David should not be left out of this movie, he was the smartest, funniest, and wise thinker...R.I.P David Banks.

[@h7assan432]

what song playing at 8:00 ??

[@Bigboi54]

Very serious Mike Epps interview

[@jfraz1992]

Nick cannon suited the part more imo, he looked more like him

[@SharodBoogette]

U ON PCP BRAH

[@Bidwellz9]

how? mike epps was a drug addict just like pryor ....and all nick cannon did was grow a mustache , he didnt look like richard pryor

[@Bidwellz9]

***** really? the op said nick cannon was better suited for the part, how? because to them he might look more like him? mike epps has more in common plain and simple making the role better suited towards epps...he knows the character he has to play nick cannon doesnt

[@Bidwellz9]

***** hes not, thats my point

[@MookthecoolkidTv]

Must be smoking good dope. Mike epps fits the part well!

[@erickiam25]

Marlon wayans would have been a better choice that dude can really act in serious roles

[@Jwillzva]

Check my channel out when you can

[@feliciajohnson4937]

Mike is going to do a great job. Mike has solo many characteristics of Richard. His performance on Sparkle was great. I feel he can pull it off.

[@scottyswanrocks12]

Nick Cannon as Pryor = fucking disaster!

[@whentherope]

Nick doin anything nowadays is disastrous IMO but maybe he'll surprise me. I hate to seem like a hater but NC just isn't for me. I respect him for doin his thing, I'll check for him and give credit where it's due in fairness

[@hendrixlynch5918]

But Nick Cannon isn't paying Richard Pryor... Mike Epps is.

[@ew3046]

Can people call in and ask celebs questions? If so whats the number

[@ezekwesirianum4160]

are the shows that similar it seems like its just the title to me yall shoulda stamped it if it was that serious

[@isntchrisl]

Apparently all you gotta do to get Mike Epps to agree with you is to look him in the eye and say something with confidence.

[@viviwar9489]

I love Mike Epps!!!! Consciousness!!!!!!!

[@iamali3056]

What song is playing at 11:30? somebody please

[@JohnDoe-br3zi]

Fabolous - You Be Killin Em (2010)

[@xkluzivtv]

Big Up Mike Epps!

[@theceo2574]

When Mike Epps is doing interviews and trying to go off top he is not that funny but when he has a chance to think and write down his jokes he is one of my top comedians. That boy goes off!

[@jennaejones5285]

I think he just be choosing his words right. He can't really be his self. A crowd gives him life. The people in here appear uptight.

[@BlackDynamite1983]

Lee Daniels?smh That movie is gonna fucking suck.

[@bornwithclass2365]

Lmcao

[@gladysrodgers4015]

I totally agree with mike epps best man for the park is mike epps he has the mileage

[@rocket_bsd_8101]

if Mike epps doesn't play him mason Pryor definitely should he looks and sounds just like his father

[@fredrickbiggers1627]

Very true what mike said about when one police officer dies they have parades

[@sekaidaniels2062]

Would love to see a movie on Bernie Mac wondering how long that will take.

[@knightsryne663]

Real king of stand up

[@DontStopTillYouDie1]

SOLID

[@insanerequest2156]

I only know him from the ''friday'' movies,he was ok in those movies. I am kinda interesting to see if he can pull it of(richard pryor biopic) ,all the best mike and do your thing!

[@RCCorps]

Eddie Murphy imitates Richard Pryor the best.

[@kimberlimyrick2371]

He's actually a banging actor as well. He sold me in Sparkle!

[@emmanuelray6196]

rip to my cousin richard pryor.

[@pheyy2276]

Best stand up comic ever

[@THEINFAMOUS1011]

Pryor? Yeah.

[@IssacFlores10456]

I ❤️ Mike Epps

[@duanawhatley4855]

this is what you call a “comic”

[@bennylexx2421]

Real talk EVERYONE needs to be held accountable for their action. Including officers

[@GriLtCheeZ]

I hope the Richard Pryor biopic is great, but I fear it is going to suck really bad. I just don't think Mike Epps is going to be up to the role. I hope I'm wrong.

[@knoxyartistvevo2141]

mike-epps-legend

[@zamp6969]

Damn he really went in on Nick 😒

[@melissarodgers6823]

A real stand up guy

[@sha2mega]

Mike Epps.. should play Richard Pryor

[@benjaminquigg1288]

mike epps drops the realest shit sometimes

[@petera.stewartiii1144]

Mike Epps is so funny. How funny is he? He's so funny, Cris Rock AND Kevin Hart got season tickets to all his movies this year. LOL!

[@bernadettemack1036]

I think Mike Epps would a excellent Richard Pryor❤❤❤❤❤

[@alexscott730]

"Goes in on"??...That's what you call "going in on"???😂😂😂😂

[@Jazz-on]

Glad my nigga Mike Epps back out here

[@s.jlogan3870]

Mike E not slick with that minor diss to the Big ups in his segment here

[@GodyP]

Mike epps never gets the respect he deserves its disgusting how People try to downplay what he's done. All these kevin hart dickriders dont get me wrong tho kevins hilarious but hasnt been doing it nearly as long as mike

[@derrickspencer5701]

Keep it up son..

[@JaguarRonin]

Love Richard Pryor. That said, Epps - Dick Gregory predates Pryor. Keep "reading".

[@dungeonboient1963]

If Eddie Murphy was younger he would def be first choice for a Richard Prior role. His impersonations are great.

[@JohnnyDanger0us]

That pryor movie aint never being made. What he said about canon doing Pryor on nbc is true, you cant do Pryor on nbc plain and simple.

[@bryantcrenshaw6861]

Says who.... ? What law is this ?

[@TooCode212]

I actually think Nick Cannon would be a better Richard Pryor and I think Mike Epps would be a better host of AGT

[@kidkwestion]

***** The both of you are smocking the same shit Richard Pryor smoked. Nick Cannon is a horrible actor and Mike showed his skills in the Sparkle movie. Also Mike Epps is too hood to host AGT but Nick Cannon's Nickelodeon appeal works well with that lame ass show.

[@TooCode212]

Never seen the movie sparkle, so from what I seen Mike Epps always plays himself really and it's always a comedy. Nick Cannon isnt really that bad of an actor he just has horrible movies, there's a difference. Also I think AGT needs someone like Mike to freshen it up. Sort of like Steve Harvey and Family Feud

[@JuiceGRiggins]

Christen Code mike epps has way more movies under his belt way more memorable roles than nick cannon nicks a decent actor I guess but mike epps pretty good. Definitely check out sparkle though

[@TheMetuneter]

if Richard Pryor is the king who is Paul Mooney

[@chilewile]

i bought a brown 1995 grand prix about 15 years ago, it was in very good condition and ran like a dream. On the pink slip the last owner was none other than Richard Prior. I thought maybe it could of been his but then again there must be many Richard Prior's in California.

[@meauxbeatz3701]

It's Pryor

[@chilewile]

Shypeon Datrack thnx

[@blaze5053]

2 years later still no movie.

[@elhanan2042]

real talk about CB...and his grandson

[@mtchll4bandz]

hot 97 is waaaaaaaaaaack lol host Ebro look like a lawn gnome

[@DannyCasino]

HAHAHAHAHAH WORD

[@vinoslim5026]

Mitchell Castillo right

[@dirtmcgirt9420]

Liberal puppets

[@isntchrisl]

Nick Cannon might not be the ideal Richord Pryor but Mike Epps sure as shit ain't either.

[@JosephWax]

+AKA hotfire okay so who do you guys think should play Richard Pryor.

[@rayrenee9536]

He'd be better at playing Richard Pryor than Nick Cannon

[@BlackLight1116]

+Max Joseph I think they should have just gotten a good actor who's still not as established. I just can't see Mike (or ANY popular comedian) as the great Richard Pryor.

[@shyscham8998]

+BlackLight1116 semi agree

[@TheBriannamorin]

He didn't "go in" on Nick Cannon. Dumb. He respectfully voiced his opinion about Nick's rendition of the late Richard Pryor and even expressed he's got love for him.

[@aksprkl6594]

Is that a "Jimmy Kimmel Live' t-shirt?

[@whoodymac]

Someone compared the show cops to travon martin or fergeson case... why is there always justification when it comes to black ppl being oppressed?

[@marqb3105]

This nigga Ebro got his start in SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA he from Berkeley He act like he from NY...............102.5 Ebro !!!!!!
