I wonder what Reggie Watts real voice sounds like...

That's the joke. He's rambling incoherrantly and it takes you a few minutes to realize he's talking gibberish, then he switches personalities and does it again, the audience laughs when they recognize fleeting glimmers of comprehensible comments all completely devoid of context and meaning inbetween the rest of it. That's what makes it hilarious, you can't tell what's the joke and what's the parody.

@jeremyray6457 His real voice would be so incredibly awesome that it would be equivalent to being able to comprehend dimensions 4-8 all at once. Your head would explode.

My mind explodes at 7:38...... gets me every damn time.

@MrFohalla Because he switches voices, it's hard to tell which voice is his real one.

@jeremyray6457 What do you mean?

The song around 7 minutes in is the single most soulful thing I've ever heard.

Jesus Christ.
