Riaad Moosa 'Strictly Halaal' (FULL SHOW)

This is my first ever one man show. I did it YEARS ago. It's the full show. I called it 'Strictly Halaal', which was quite an unusual title for a comedy show back in the day. Up til that point, our ensemble comedy audiences were homogeneously white. When I started doing my one man shows, suddenly the scarves, kurtas and beards started coming out to the comedy shows. It seems like a lifetime ago and I remember it like it was yesterday. But looking at the suit I was swimming in, a part of me would rather forget.

[@karlrensburg3472]

Your stand-up is my go-to, and I watch them often with the likes of loyiso Gola, Trevor Noah, katt Williams, Russell Peter's, and Eddie griffin. Keep up the good work, Dr. Moosa. 👏👏👏👏👏

Brilliant piece by Riaad. He doesn't even try he's 100% natural.

Laughed with tears streaming. Riaad is an absolute genius!!!

Watching this for the first time during lock down in South Africa. Riaad, you are born to be a comedian and you should make more movies. Every thing about you is adorable.

Riaad Moosa. A SA legend. Ripping into all races and cultures. I love it.

[@ahjotco906]

Excellent show and performance. Watching from the USA. Transients international cultures. I am not of Indian nor African descent and yet I thoroughly enjoyed this show. Bravo!

[@jarm6227]

Today was the first time I even heard of Riaad. But MAN! Was I in for the best comedy show EVER! Thank you for sharing your AMAZING talent.

[@zuraidazakaria7419]

I discovered him last night after watching Material on Netflix. Followed it by watching Riaad Moosa:Life Begins. I woke up my family from laughing so hard.

[@1stepicurean]

This guy is so underrated. He should be popular.

[@onefreebean5394]

He has had 1.4 million views and there are no ratings. ... Who exactly are you to judge this fella being rated? He is now very famous and going by the view count here we can only guess that he is doing fantastic and rated highly by many many people. Wake up dodo

You are a gem brother. I loved it. The fact that your hilarious and you don’t swear, and very little explicit references is just brilliant. 👍🏼👍🏼. PLEASE COME TO TORONTO, CANADA. I know 500 people that I would love to see your show..just you alone!

[@dulajohnstone5704]

Riaad should be awarded for the funniest mefcal doctor ever..he'll cure any sick person without medicines

[@eachellsfinefurniture4853]

Anybody who laughs at himself or culture , I think is brilliant !! Riaad is FUNNY 😂 👍

[@VigiLogic]

No jokes. Moosa is surely better than Trevor Noah - and for years I thought Trevor was the best to come out of South Africa. Moosa is actually more clever and has more insightful observations of everyday life, with an easier delivery. Thanks for this gem, man!

[@omegaalphaeren3148]

If moosa is better then Trevor why is he Stil in Afrika

[@VigiLogic]

OmegaAlphaEren Right. Because the yardstick for competence at one’s craft is to not be in Africa! You see the problem?

[@aniedav7075]

Why should they be better? Can they not be great in their own individual way? Sad to always bring competition into every thing!

[@aasimdewji7579]

They are both good in their own lanes.

[@albinoblacksheep7826]

Definitely better than old Trevor
