David Allen Grier trained in Shakespeare at Yale University, where he received an MFA from the Yale School of Drama🧠. In a world filled with ppl claiming to be one of the greats, David truly is! The difference between him and a lot of the other comics is he doesn't have to boast and brag! He doesn't walk around calling himself a goat of comedy because he knows he is💡. His comedic range flows easily from slap-stick, to spoken word, to stand-up and bounces right back to silver screen acting! With that being said, we salute you Mr. Grier, truly a goat of comedy!!
@anthonytaylor7928 well my good not sure about the ppl that your talking about, I just stated my opinion, I know that he is funny in every project that he's involved in and you and I both know that he's not mentioned in that regard, that's why I say he's underrated 😉
Listen to him tell jokes all i can see is brand new sketches popping up in my head. TV needs this type of genius comedy writing. That bit about him passing the drink to Charlamagne and asking him who he wants to slap, that's the type of writing that we need to bring back NOW.
I can't even imagine In Living Color coming out today...if it did, it'd be a sanitized version...basically modern day SNL. ILC pushed the boundaries and I was all for it. Classic skits, performers.
It was a pleasure to watch this interview. I love David Alan Grier's poise and intellect. He answered every question and paused when he needed to. He's a wealth of knowledge. I'm also glad that Envy wasn’t there because we needed to hear David's perspectivein peace.
David. Sigh. He is one of THE most talented thespians working today and I am a devout fan. First because of his sheer brilliance, but secondly because his parents were longtime members of my home church, Ebenezer AME in his hometown of Detroit. And we could not be prouder that he comes from, was raised up within our Community!! So, whatup doe, baby boy! Keep being you!! You are loved!!!🥰❤️😘
DAG is a legend and I love how he speaks to the next generation. Jess is so authentic and I love how she is unapologetically Jess. Excellent interview.
Love that he took time to pour into them. I don’t agree with everything Jess says but it’s sad to hear that she doubts her spot. What God has for you, is for you.
I am throughly enjoying this conversation. I feel like he is a dad, uncle, or big brother dropping wisdom. Yes he is one of the G.O.A. T and when he drops those pearls of wisdom we should all listen and take heed. I have been a fan, since, In Living Color. Great interview!!!
I just love him! His soft-spoken demeanor is so refreshing! I don’t think I’ve ever heard him do an interview and I must say I was pleasantly impressed 😍
The smarter comics are so layered, every interview is amazing, you can’t get In Oiving Color again because from Tommy to the Wayans to Jamie and Jim they were some brilliant well read and knowledgeable people, and the talent was different
David always shows up from the beginning, a stellar performer, singer,rap when needed, with a bum hip,acting on tv,stage and movies.giving us his best and never forget ...channels the spirit of Teddy Pendergrass like no other!! A class act !
Salute to David Allen Grier been a fan since the beginning long before In Living Color.. Went to see him in a play before the pandemic after the play I spoke to him he walked by me I said damn he didn’t hear me I said Mr Grier great performance he just kept walking got in a waiting car and drove off!! I was like damn!! Maybe it just was a bad day but someone said he is like that with everybody..
21:23 People don’t know that Club Shay Shay has been around for a couple of years. And the people who said certain things about Katt were on Club Shay Shay BEFORE Katt’s interview. Kevin Hart said Katt was on drugs on the Breakfast Club years before Katt’s interview.
I’m thankful for this interview. I saw this movie on Netflix and wasn’t sure if I was interested. I understand the premise now so I’ll def be watching.
Great interview. David has always been one of my favorites. I saw the movie yesterday and loved it. Justice’s speech hit home for me. In my opinion, I think everyone should see the movie.
I salute this guy man. He dropping some real gems and unfortunately because it ain’t scandal or he’s not up there creating conflict this won’t go viral!
love that gray beard on him. everytime I watch Tales From The Hood I cant believe they had him beating somebodys ass lol obviously he has range but I could never see David doing that shit for real

I concur ❤💯🇧🇸
U put that greatly 👏🏿 I never knew know it explains why he’s so deep in his bag when it comes to range.
U know what u sayin!
yeah well he a sambo for this movie
He went to Yale ? And doing a movie about a secret black society ? I never knew he went to Yale. That school guarantees your success.
This guy is so underrated, absolutely hilarious
Why people so darn quick to use the word underrated on RUclips so darn much stop!! He's not underrated

This man has been hilarious for decades. I love the calmness of his conversation
Respect to the OG, he's had a great career.
I can't even imagine In Living Color coming out today...if it did, it'd be a sanitized version...basically modern day SNL. ILC pushed the boundaries and I was all for it. Classic skits, performers.
It would be boring 😂.
Mannn so underrated! David Alan Grier, Erika Alexander, Michael K Williams, Jeffrey Wright, just a few of my favorites.
You’re so right.
David Alan Grier will go down as one of the best!

The Carmichael Show will always be in my top 5 comedic sitcoms. David Alan Grier was a huge reason why that show was so good.

Hope you are better.
I hate that it was so short I can listen to David Alan Grier talk for 2 or 3 hours
He has a nice speaking voice.
Low key Zaddy...I love intelligent men like him❤
This is a stupid movie
@@imjustamericanthe comment was about the MAN, not the movie. 🙄
Love that he took time to pour into them. I don’t agree with everything Jess says but it’s sad to hear that she doubts her spot. What God has for you, is for you.
We need to hear more comedians, actors and other artists pour into the next generation. Love this!
I am throughly enjoying this conversation. I feel like he is a dad, uncle, or big brother dropping wisdom. Yes he is one of the G.O.A. T and when he drops those pearls of wisdom we should all listen and take heed. I have been a fan, since, In Living Color. Great interview!!!

One of the first ppl from my childhood that made me realize comedy..real black legend and king..
The regal and royal David Alan Grier. A hilarious comedian and a fantastic actor - love him so much!!! ❤❤❤
My favorite non-wayan “Wayan” brother! Lol
Him and Damon on Blankman from 94 had me dying 😂😂😂
He played the hell out of that role Monster on Tales From the Hood.
He has the best expressions on his face😮😮😅
The fact that it’s only 150k views on the interview of the great David Alan Grier lets us know where we are now as a society.
Real fuckin living legend. Most of our childhoods are stained with his Corky, cultured and funny ass comedy. Genius.
I just love him! His soft-spoken demeanor is so refreshing! I don’t think I’ve ever heard him do an interview and I must say I was pleasantly impressed 😍
Love to see the OGs working n full of life man..still brilliant,still potent n still hilarious

That last part!.... AMAZING! Keep speaking your truth Breakfast Club!
This show was a breath of fresh air! Would love to see Mr. Grier on the 85 South Show!
