Part 1: • Tommy Davidson was Lef...
--------
In this clip, Tommy Davidson spoke about the past tension between him and Jamie Foxx, and detailed how mean Foxx was during their time on ‘In Living Color.’ However, Tommy was clear to point out that the competition the two found themselves engaged in brought out the best in him. He explained that his recounting of that time wasn’t to put Jamie down but rather to shed light on how that experience shaped him.

I don’t think people understand what happened here. Vlad was trying to get a juicy viral moment in the hopes that Tommy would say something disparaging about FOXX and it didn’t work. This guy is a problem for our community…seriously.
I agree this vlad guy is trash 🗑
Word! Exactly 💯!
Right, and I think ppl are starting to see that, they been shutting him down quickly when he tries to go in that direction!
Oh for sure he’s tryna start some ish. if we want to be serious about putting an end to his antics then we have to stop giving him views regardless of who he’s interviewing. myself included, i gave him views cause i like tommy. it’s not easy to not watch your favorites, but it’ll be necessary to put it stop to his BS. Either that or he needs some competition.
@@belle_bagay3849 Absolutely 💯
This interview shows how sneaky vlad is and how smart Tommy is such class
Feds tend too be sneaky 😂
FACTS 2:51 he checked him without confronting him. Tommy knows who he is dealing with
Well said
He interviewed my homie Bizar the other day it’s real💯
Yup and the messy clickbait
Tommy Davidson could hold his own with anyone. A true legend 👏🏾
My childhood bro
Me and Jamie would have had to shoot the fade.

@@romeoo5272 I fw jamie foxx but didnt he get beat up by ll cool j
@@yourwifesfavoritebull9216 yes he did
People need to take heed to this mans comments. Your coworkers are NOT your family. Stop expecting loyalty and respect from strangers just because you have the same profession
That part
Yes indeed!
Best comment I heard ALL DAY
Big Facts
A WHOLE word
I'm over here cracking up at how he was trying to get Tommy to say something disparaging but it didn't work.😂😂😂
Tommy wasn’t about to fall for the okey doke that Vlad tried to set. He turned that questioning on its head. He could see what Vlad was trying to do from a mile away…
How when he pulled a direct quote from his book 😂😂
@@abdulclutch4509 Don’t laugh at your own comments, it’s unbecoming. What Tommy DID was highlight the fact that cherry picking quotes in order to stoke beef for clicks is not something he’s about…He pointed out there were multiple pages praising Foxx. Tommy’s intent was not to start beef with Jamie but rather explain the totality of his experience. He rejected in total Vlad’s framing & turned the whole question on its head. It was deft, smart & a master stroke.
@@murryjm doesn’t matter 😂😂 he still made that quote and it’s a fair question to ask about that quote 😂😂 hold up lemme laugh one more time 😂😂
Yes! So Eloquently.
@@abdulclutch4509 how? because Vlad excluded necessary context which changed Davidson’s narrative.
Me saying “you went to the store” is totally different than “you went to the store and bought 10 buckets of ice cream for the neighborhood kids”
Context.
Tommy is unsung comedic genius. He was pure and funny without having to over act or express himself. Living Color was a classic comedy that brought out a lot of superstars. This brand of comedy wouldn’t last now because people are just WAY TOO SENSITIVE now.
Michael Jackson was Unsung too
Naw he definitely was an overacted actor but he made it look natural
Without having to over act or express himself??? Have you seen any of his in living color? That Michael Jackson skit wasnt over acting?
@@MrSPIDEY21 exactly 😂
Exactly... and I still think IN LIVING COLOR & MAD TV is way funnier than SNL ( don't get me wrong SNL was real good but way back in the day when they had the legends on it it's no where what it once was ) so many major stars were made from ILC & they are all so talented that's for sure... anyways hope u enjoying u sunday 🌞 & HAPPY EASTER 🐰🐇!!
I met Tommy Davidson at a comedy club I waited tables at. He was SO SWEET and he cooked all the waitresses lemon pepper wings and it was really good 😩 I have a ton of respect for him
Yum. 😋
Oh Wow!
"We've all been one incident away from being thrown over the top." -Tommy Davidson
Too true to forget
I think this describes the situation Will found himself in. It sucks but we're human.
@@bluubird7077 exactly
Tommy and Jamie made a hood classic together...Booty Call. They both killed it
Fucking Saran Wrap 😅😅😅.
Facts
Funniest part was Bernie Mac part
I love that damn movie ..the part with the car splashing water on him and him spitting the dirty water out was hilarious... well done movie.
. Him and his clerk, the "furry/fuzzy temptress"
This guy has given me some of the hardest laughs in my life
TELEMUNDO GIGANTE!!!! LMAO 😂😂
Especially in Ace Ventura
@@covertLLC yoooo 😂🤣
Now I gotta go back and rewatch that lol

Tha homie Cream Corn 😂😂😂
Creaaaam Corn.
tommy davidson on in living color was incredible. one of my favorite comedians growing up. always created memorable characters
As Creamed Corn in "Black Dynamite" he's hilarious
“You can take the children, bounce them on they kneeeeeeesss, bounce them on they knees and sing a meloddyyyyyyyy” 🤣🤣 man I love him!
The Varnell Hill character on Martin was hilarious. TD is definitely unsung. 🦋
*Sha boing boing* 😂😂
Hahaha the best! You know how many times I replayed that bit? Millions!!
He had Martin break character, that shit was hilarious 💀
"Did Ya Miss Me!", Tommy Davidson is da Man.😎👍❤
Truthfully Tommy held that all-star in loving color cast down just from being funny…everybody had a specific character on that show they was known for but Tommy was just pure energy and hilarious…salute to Tommy and the cast you truly had to be alive during those times to understand this man’s genius 💪🏾‼️
Yeah Tommy was funnier than Jamie, at least on In Living Color. All Jamie had was the wig and the dress, which wore out its welcome FAST...
@@bOmBAsTiK very fast bro
Not fast enough
Facts!!!
His Sammy Davis 😂
TOMMY DAVIDSON WAS AND STILL ONE OF THE UNSUNG COMEDIANS!! TRULY A LEGEND!!
I like how when vlad was trying to talk about the drama tommy made it positive I have nothing but respect for this dude 💯
Vlad stays tryina start stuff esp between black folk.
@@coryspencer467 For real it's sickening.
Yes
Much respect to Tommy for making it abundantly clear that he is not a victim or burning with envy at someone's success. I always liked his work on in living colors and Martin.
Him, David Allen Grier, & T’Keyah Crystal Kemah were my favorites on the show. Every skit these three were in, it was funny lol
Grier is a fool 😂😂
@@scrappbyrd5470 lol onG. Dude is pure comedy
T'keya was FINE too
@@scrappbyrd5470 My favorite was his Joe Jackson & Ike Turner
One of the most underrated comics ever
Easily

I thought he was the funniest on ILC
Agreed!
No doubt him David Allen Greer those guys are real comedians.
Honestly I go through that at work with somebody like he did with Jamie. I brush it off, but that kind of stuff still affects me, and I don't want to lose my job by reacting crazy. The biggest thing I can control is how I treat other people and that's with dignity and respect, and then also do the best job I can. Great lesson to be learned.
I know what your saying stay strong never react , I like to think of it this way the crazier they act , the more embarrassing the story is going to be for them for the rest of there life , a pen or pencil or written words can cause a whole lotta damage when done right
@@adr3naline23 very much agreed
I had to walk away from these Hispanic chics everyday,so what I did is stop coming through the Office way,and come in another entryway, cause I was about to go off on these Women at Work and so I kepted my distance,but I understand completely what you are saying,and going through,I will keep you in my Prayers♥️👍🏾
@@oliviaanderson6720 I'm going through that now. It sucks because im avoiding a bunch of toxic 50 year olds even though I'm in my 20s.
@@Hawkeyes319 Fuck all that.. Catch them outside and put hands on em. Some ppl gotta learn the hard way.
The Legendary Tommy Davidson!!!!! We need more from him.
Agreed but WS has the money, and won’t allow it. But Jim Carey?? Sky’s the limit!!
I like the way Tommy turned the interview around.
Edit: Wow 77 likes, I’m almost famous 😂✌🏾
Vlad tried it for sure!
Yea Tommy cleaned it up, he knows how to navigate the convo
As soon as he said who was that beautiful dude we lost, I'm at home yelling Nipsey! 🥰💞🙏
I like how Tommy kept the interview from going in a negative direction. Vlad wanted that gossip.💯
Yeah, Tommy was like, "Nope."
Vlad's always trying draw heat on something. I tune in for some of his guests, but Vlad's a straight clown.
And everyone here KEEP COMING BACK regardless.
This is a serious moment but every time i see bruh I remember the characters that brought me to tears of laughter. Thanks for that TD!💕
Lol
The Varnell Hill man!!! 🎶 🎼
College park ain’t Atl 🤷🏽♂️
I loved him and Jamie as ace and mane on in living color, but any man should be able to hold his on, what he should've did at night write a lot of jokes about Jamie so when Jamie fucd with him , tommy hit him with crazy jokes, every time he saw Jamie it's jokes, break that shitt, unless tommy sweet and Jamie joked about it, , how can you get bullied as a man
Woo
Tommy Davidson's a legend. Sad that it wasn't a family atmosphere. It seemed like it. Specially when the fly girls would come out and everyone would all dance. Classic show. One of the best shows ever.
That Philly stand-up special he did is LEGENDARY!!!! If you never seen it then watch it, you will not be disappointed.
Yes sir. Awesome stand up comedian.
Facts. iLLin in Philly. One of my all time favorite stand-ups.
@@rudygoofysrh You're a very handsome man❤

Tommy is one of the greatest of the greats. Truly funny, nice and deserving of the title Stand up Comedian
Jamie tried that bull on ll cool j and got knocked out quick lol
😆😂🤣😭
It’s all coming together now.
Really?????
@@hungrydogg263 yeah, on the Any Given Sunday set. LL got a video on RUclips explaining what happened.
Love this guy, such a legend.
Have people forgotten about Tommy's and Jamie's movie BOOTY CALL? That movie was hilarious 😂
As soon as I thought about the movie I saw your comment 😂
Classic...friends fall out. It's happened to me. You just enjoy the memories and respect each others path.
On god, fuckin classic! Still to this day
Saran Wrap.
I have a newfound respect for Mr. Davidson for being a genuinely heart-centered human being.
Vlad loves to hear himself talk. Ask the question already.
This is an interviewers job to dig into things and ask questions some people are to afraid to ask because of XYZ. He got an honest answer that shed some light into something that could have been taken the wrong way. The knowledge Mr. Davidson dropped is pure gold.
Varnell Hill was one of the best characters in TV history
Catfish is delicious 🤣
@@jayceonmitchell3541 red beans in gravy I ain’t too lazy

By far my favorite live stand-up. Seen bro at least 5 times at DC Improv. Kills me every time. ❤️
Yes I saw him years ago he was very nice!
@@Jani28 Dave Chapelle wayy funnier than him
@@myforeskinsmelllikecheesep4554 You just HAVE TO Make something into a competition, Why cant THEY BOTH Just be very funny & talented!??
Tommy Davidson is far more deep and cerebral than I realized ! Always loved his work he's a true legend !
I met Tommy at a Cowboys game right before the pandemic and I told him I was from VA and he was like “What you doing up there nigga? Come to Austin”😂
I believe Tommy but they chemistry on Booty Call was hilarious 🤣
My name Terrez too 💯
Facts that’s a classic
Real talk. Hilarious af
Was booty call filmed before or after in living color?
Bru so real. Every clip he’s speaking maturity and wisdom. When vlad asks loaded questions Tommy gives perspective other than his own even in situations where he could make himself look better he still just says what it is/was…most people need mushrooms lsd or to live long enough to ascend to that level
He is just so smart, such a legend, so full of wisdom. I love how he handled this question.
This mans growth transcends everything. Was always one of my favourite comedians and in my opinion, has always been criminally underrated!
Growing up with In Living Color it great to see Tommy handle himself so well in the interview. Speaking the truth but not just bashing Jamie... Even though he obviously could
Not that it would matter😭😭😭
This man, so many gems. Thank you Tommy!!!
When he played Varnell hill on the Martin show ... legendary episode
They say "Queens"are Competitive.... The room was probably too small for all the flames 🤣❤️🔥🤣❤️🔥🤣❤️🔥
Facts
Love his response 💚
When I was a kid and saw in living color, I always thought Tommy Davidson was gonna be one of the big breakout stars. Still kinda surprised he never hit it as big as I felt he deserved
I thought Tommy Davison were hilarious in the movie “Strictly business “ great, love watching, never got/ get tired, talented cast!!!!!/ ℹ sometimes forget that Halle spell were in
Strictly Biz!!! My dad made watch that everyday summer of '92. He got the Bmws and everything after that movie. Monroe was his favorite part!!
I appreciate your breakdown after you’d clearly stated reading is fundamental….love you TD!
This is thee most classiest interview I have ever seen.💪🏾
Jamie Foxx was roasting LLCOOL J on set of 'Any Given Sunday' but got his azz whip
That man was preaching. The last few points Tommy made where so true and made me think about Will Smith
I truly love the way tommy handled this, people that go to Vlad really need to unpack how he answered this line of questions
Thank you for these interviews. I love learning more about Tommy D!
" You wanna jump the curb and chase 'em down!" LMAO, I was picturing him doing that@ 6:15
I love you Tommy Davidson. You are real and funny. I believe totally. Some people get off on making other people feel bad.
Tommy got Talent, he can make u bust up laughing without having a dialogue....
Ace Ventura "the backpack warrior"😆🤣😭
Varnell Hill...”Did you miss me?” 🤣🤣☺️☺️☺️ Gotta love Tommy!
Jamie got punched upside the head by LL Cool J and called the police.
I’m not impressed
His comedic timing is always on point. 💪🏿
Never knew Tommy was this deep.. transcendence.. no one speaks on that.. beautiful
I luv how he described Nipsey 🔥💜that’s peace
It seems what Tommy and Doug Williams are saying on this clip confirms on how LL Cool J and Jamie Foxx got into the Any Given conflict.
Jaime and LL's conflict quickly came to mind too. Jaime can dish it, but can't take it.
Yeah heard LL put paws on him seriously.
Yeah heard LL put paws on him seriously.
LL won't tolerate Foxx's antics nor disrespect.
@@el-Cu9432 Bill Bellamy talked about the whole scenario at length. Look for it on RUclips. It's hilarious. But yeah, that's what I got from it. LL wasn't with the shenanigans
Tommy Davis of one of the greatest of all time this guy a Legend for real
say Timmy you feel like people stepping on your toes & cramping your style in these comments? Damn near everybody calling him the greatest, or a legend (for real) ...but that’s YOUR thing!
@@kevindube7096 brah every video lol even basketball video I seen him on a raptors video lol
I was jus watching him on that all star weekend comedy joint. This man is the truth. Most definitely veteran in the game
Lol, one of the most underrated comedians. Dude gave me so many laughs as a youngsta… LoL. Still remember some episodes. 😂
If you’re not a comedian you wouldn’t understand what it’s like to be in an environment such as In Living Color. The amount of talent Keenan pooled together was incredible. All of them young, trying get their shine on and become stars. Dog eat dog for real.
Underrated actor and comedian 👏
I love his humour
I remember when Tommie worked in the galley at Naval Medical Center, Bethesda Maryland back in the day as he was cracking jokes then!!! Saw him in standup in Jacksonville FL.( Comedy club) years later and he was off the chain. Mad respect for this brother from our Nation's Capitol 👏🏿 🙏🏿 🙌🏿!!!!
I need to buy his book. I want to support Tommy Davidson. I love when he speaks. I love his Sway interview where he deeply talked about music.
I remember an episode of In Living Color when Tommy and Jamie almost got into a fight on live on air. Jamie was playing Wanda and he was chasing Tommy and pulled his pants down. It seems that this was not part of the rehearsal and they squared up like they were about to fight right then and there before the others stepped in. Foxx also got into a fight with LL Cool J on the set of 'Any Given Sunday'.
Yeah I just watched that scene because of your comment. It’s just male humor, but not everybody is legitimately cool with that. I remember seeing Paul Bearer from WWF do that to Stone Cold during a blooper. Austin just laughed it off like Tommy did in the moment, but you can tell both we’re uncomfortable.
I know exactly what you're talking about, it was a blooper episode. There were no squaring up or any signs of violent tension, it was all laughs.
Why you lying bro?
@@CaliCool91 not every joke is funny bro.. especially an offensive joke in public..
With the LL situation LL was getting to hyped up in his character and Jamie told him to chill then they got into words ..I'm not saying Jamie isn't a dick Bec he had another issue with Colin Farrell on the set of Miami vice...
Didn't realize Tommy Davidson was so intelligent and insightful. when someone is a great comedian you forget there's another side.
The psychology of his interviews are thought provoking 🤍💯‼️
WISDOM!!! PRAISE THE MOST HIGH!🙏🏾 I PRAY THE YOUTH HOLD ON TO IT🙏🏾 RESPECT 💐✊🏾💯💪🏾
I see why Richard Pryor saw what he saw in Mr. Davidson. This man is a living legend
Get it King Tommy you are indeed a legend💯💯💯💯🙌🏽🙏🏽 A real one✊🏽
Thank you Tommy love you and your work.Appreate your book so much so many wonderful principle
I really love Tommy Davidson and enjoy his work. A legend for real.
Crazy to hear this, I loved them two together as the bouncers lol
Me 2!!!!!😆😆😆❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bamboozled is one of my favorite movies
Tommy’s constant “Mmm hmm” is his way of saying, “I see what u trying to do.”
That last line ......I really felt dat word life.
Tommy is a stand up dude! I love that!
His Sammy Davis impression is unmatched
Pay attention to this Man. He is all 1st class! Clear, Focused, and will always above that Bullsh*t! Love Supertalent Tommy Davidson
Idk nothing bout nothing, but what they did in front of the camera was GENIUS! They were the perfect pairing EVERY TIME!!
The depths to which I FEEL everything Tommy had to say here
One incident away.... You get enough of those and shit happens... Boy Will Smith probably can writ a book on that....
3:29 Was that a Varnell Hill moment?! 🤣🤣🤣
I watched that episode last night lol
Wisdom, class, intelligence... wonderfully stated! Legend
This man is at peace. It's rooted in his tone, his message and his aura. I also peeped how he didn't allow messiness to creep in
I sad it once “and I’ll say it again” LOVE the cast of In living Color.. but Tommy Davidson & David Alan Grier were & are still my favorites
Them and damon was my favorite
@@tydeprince719 “Damon was the truth”
They don’t get enough credit. David is a phenomenal actor and comedian a well as Tommy.
@@qjohnson21 “Amen & Amen”..
One if the best sketch comedy bits of all time was Tommy and Jamie as doormen. LMFAO that show was better then SNL at that time. My dad and I used to watch it all the time and just loved it so much.
Love his perspective on this, Gems to grow from.
Vlad does great interviews. But he Thrive off of black men Beefing and having a dispute against one another.
This behavior has to be broadcast and acknowledged before it can be corrected.
He’s obsessed with it
I relate this to Will Smith's incident with Chris Rock and my own experience as a standup comic.
People don't realize how mean some comics really are (this is two examples of Foxx's behavior. Lookup Patrice O'Neal, one of my favorite comics, but known to be a huge asshole in real life).
It's because alot of comics are depressed people and use comedy as an outlet. In addition, comedy is essentially criticizing, judging and insulting people and reality. Comedy can be a form of bullying if not done correctly. On social media we've cyber bullied Will Smith and family for over a year, in an attempt to be humorous, (making and sharing hurtful memes) about their personal relationship that they exposed so we could learn how to overcome family problems.
I'm not saying this to excuse Will Smith's behavior, but to open people's eyes to the true danger in standup comedy and the power of our words. Specifically, roasting people who didn't ask to be roasted. Mental Health is real and many people, especially comedians, suffer from mental health issues. And as the saying goes, "hurt people, hurt people". Another example you can examine is the MTV show Catfish. A majority of the people who conduct the scam are people who have been hurt in life and have mental health issues (low self esteem) who are making poor decisions to cope with their pain, and most of which were not truly intending to hurt the other person although that was the end result.
It's a vicious cycle and I pray we open our minds to learn to be kinder to one another and seek mental health services so we break the cycle of hurt. To create a better society. Let's be quick to understand and slow to judge as none of us are perfect. I hope Chris and Will both heal, learn, take accountability, forgive and receive forgiveness.
It's easy to judge like we are perfect, but we've all made a mistake we can be judged about. And I'm sure we've also taken accountability for those mistakes and chose not to repeat them. Thus, we deserve forgiveness and with that understanding should be willing to forgive. I hope we learn to be more understanding to all sides so we can resolve conflict better. To Err Is Human, thus we all deserve forgiveness. Especially if we are willing to be accountable.
I leave you with this, you never truly know how much someone is hurting inside and close to ending their life ( ie Robin Williams). It cost nothing to be kind and understanding and we have kindness and understanding in unlimited supply. Share this with your community and see how much better it becomes and the lives you save and change for the better. Break The Cycle.
“Booty Call” 😂😂 best movie
I watch Tommy interviews just to see how many times he fixes his glasses, lmao…he never fails me, lol
