[@missayawk]

Not just a comedian, but one of the best story tellers and really knows how to deliver a punchline.One of the most underrated comedians of all time.

[@SierraKBruno]

One of the greatest comedians ever! We need a comedy special!

[@elijahpostell9001]

Michael Colyar is outstanding... Love his stand up... Thank you for performing in Philadelphia, Pa... 😮😮 You're great...

[@DanielDanielsonComedy]

I nicknamed him Master Class. Meaning, he teaches you something about comedy every time you listen to Michael Colyar.

[@devinbrown1169]

Real shit.

Michael Colyar is a comedy legend. It's a shame that he doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

[@diallostraighttalk803]

[@motorcityb8551]

God knows what he's doing

[@lizabethstewart9517]

The man is another Richard Pryor in his own right. I was in stitches belly aching laughing and passing gas at the same damn time omg. I’m forwarding this to all I know is going to appreciate his shit. I believe he didn’t want the heights of legends like Eddie Murphy and such because it comes with other shit he just didn’t want attached to him. He is living comfortably without signing contracts with other no good individuals.

Epic performance by Michael Colyar. He is unsung and better than a lot of the comedians who are out today. I was thoroughly entertained and never laughed so hard. His delivery of his material is "off the chain". When he comes home to Chicago, I will be in the audience. Yes Sir!
