  • Fast forward to :41 to get past the intro

  • Thank you Mr. Watkins. I agree with you completely.

    I'm compelled to add that aside from his minstrel-esque tendencies and mediocre talent, DL Hughley is simply not qualified to publicly speak, articulate, or lavish insight or opinion on anything anyone takes seriously.  I find him an illiterate embarrassment, and a dirty smudge on the legacy of audible black voices.

    Lord help us if this shithead is the best we can do.

  • DL Sucks ... This guy will do or say anything for a laugh.

    Ever since his Don Imus duplication on Jay Leno, I have realized this guy DL is a serious bad joke on Black America !!!!

  • I hate the show too man. It was like a punch in the gut. WHO TAKES DL SERIOUSLY? This shit was so transparent, it isn't even funny. What I can't believe is that DL would be soooo intellectually challenged that he cannot FATHOM that he is being used divisively. Oh yeah, and DL's comedy only consists of "roasts", which only hold the attention for a short time.

  • I 100% agree with you that show is not funny and it totally only caters to a certain type of self abhorrence and lack of class. I dont like it and I am eagerly awaiting its cancelation.

  • good point...lol

  • Stump, slapstick, stereotypes, check. Ladies and Gentlemen keep your eyes wide open, for you are baring witness to a master minstrel at work. Only thing missing here is the Panic of 1837/ wait...The Panic of 2008, only thing is that "we are not broke, and the Government owns "low income housing";Grotesque stereotypes with a "truly" black face. Composition argument; played. Federal Reserve ownes "insurance game". Gives 71% to the Government for a 600% return. Now that's news.

  • Keep posting this video until the whole world knows what a piece of shit that DL Hughley breaks the news piece of crap is!

  • what the fuck is wrong with you , how many times do you have to post this video
