You're right. Most people also don't realize Patrice refused many lucrative proposals for work because they didn't align with his goals and personal journey. He viewed comedy as a tool for facilitating TRUE dialogue between gender and race. I can't remember who said it, but it's true - good comedy should make 50% of people laugh, and 50% uncomfortable. The goal of his comedy was always the search for underlying truths about ourselves - think about it, how many times did he say, "Let's be real"?
MrVvulf Ironically your paraphrased quote about 50% of people laughing and 50% of people being uncomfortable was said by Patrice O'neal. It occurs at about the 15:16 mark in this video: ruclips.net/video/PNHonbqlEOs/видео.html
Agreed. He really developed his style over the years and became one of the greats. It's sad that he couldn't pick the fruit of what his work bore. He was just about to come into loads of deals and money. Also sucks that he had to leave his family behind with next to nothing. But I do hear that Bill Burr and other awesome comedians do a benefit show for his family every so often. I'd totally go and support that if they came to my city.
In my time seen most from 90s to present and rest on here or dvds of pryor and Cosby , Carlin ,Lenny Bruce and no one is on Patrice's level , currently i enjoy Chapelle ,Bill Burr and Corey Holcombe but none of these 6os and 70s comedians in my opinion come close to Patrice .
Patrice O'Neal was one of the great comics. He had such a natural flow on stage. The world lost a great entertainer, but we were lucky to have him for the short time that we did!
@@zacharyolson1755 Yep, he was at that level that just can't be learned or faked. Just raw, natural, unique, inborn talent and ability. Watching him do this, he was just so in his element like few people are capable of. Truly has a place on the proverbial Mount Rushmore of standups.
Patrice O'Neal's bit about what the woman says while the man is watching the baseball game had me laughing/crying because it's the TRUTH! I think O'Neal secretly has been bugging my living room!
@@amneenja5720 Hell no. I love Robin Williams, but he stole WAY TOO MANY jokes from other comedians to be put in that upper-tier of Carlin, Pryor, Chappelle, Burr, Patrice, etc.
@kimsjustice09 please please do not keep that a secret, it is now your mission to let every female on this planet know. If not for humanity and the future of the human species, do it for Patrice!
Does anyone else forget on a regular basis that Patrice is dead? His material is so good, so current, that it almost seems impossible it wasn't written yesterday. Truly a fucking comedic genius and a master of being happy.
I *REALLY* hope there's an extended, uncensored version of the "Ain't Dat Better?!" bit, because it's fucking BRILLIANT. The audience was in stitches, fully aware of how much insight O'Neal had into their own lives and romantic relationships.
I just realized how the Metoo movement gained speed . No Patrice . If Patrice was still alive he would have cut that shit up in 2 jokes and slipped in a third for shits and giggles .
Yup, Patrice would've skewered the me too feminazis. Now, you've made every man alive afraid to even talk to you, ladies. Ain't that Better ! Better buy yourself a mansized tallywhacker, cuz ain't no man gonna go near it.. Ain't that better !?
My favorite part is when he says," you could be by the vent somewhere". I always liked Patrice's attempts to make women understand men better. Some women might find it offensive, but he always made me laugh 😂😂😂
Omg 😆 he just described why my boyfriend gets mad at me 😂 He says I nitpicking and nannying him when I think I'm improving the situation!! Now I get it
I found Patrice in june of 2011 listening to OandA became a huge fan. That October he had a show in Jersey I was gonna go but stayed home I figured he's always in New York and it 30 minutes awsy so I'll see him there, then he dies. Patrice the Greatest
Because of this, all I can think about when a woman walks into the room is ""Whatcha doin????" or "Ain't that better??" in a soprano voice! LOL #47GrainBread
I just read Kevin Hart's book and he had some good stories of Patrice and how he took him in and mentored him as he came up in comedy. They were even roommates for a bit. Really miss O'Neal, RIP bro
Dec.7th: Happy birthday Comedian-TV / Radio Show host Patrice Lumumba Malcolm O'Neal (1969-2011) Thank you and God bless. RIP Legend. Thanks for the upload, EscherReturns. Blessings
"Men want to be alone, but we don't want to be by ourselves". Haha! So true.
Slikrik1212 ...👍
Mj Price I don’t understand replies like this 😂 like go away with your thumb foo
No one has put it as perfectly to this day...he had a knack of putting complex thoughts and ideas into simple phrases that everyone understood
Damn he's so right.
One of the single best pieces of truth said in the most perfect way that I've ever heard. The "wow" moment.
Manhood lost a seasoned, poised, battle-tested 5-star General when Patrice passed! Salute, Homey! RIP.
Amen brotha, amen!
JanWynd respect ✊
He went to early! We need him now more than ever.
That's true
That's why it's imperative we take his teachings into the world in our daily lives
So true
Aint that better!?!? pure gold - RIP Patrice!
He just kept hitting it right on the button every step of the way through that bit. Bravo!
He forgot to pick up a bag for one of the ladies one day. xD
Pure gold. RIP.
Some of his best material.
🙏Legend
Not enough people realize what how great a Genius we lost when we lost Patrice O'Neal.

"I kept the plane in the air you selfish bitch!" LOL "I don't believe in ground karma." Patrice was such a funny guy.
what do you mean by "was" doesn't he do comedy anymore
Zakaria Ali It's hard to perform comedy when you're dead.
+Zakaria Ali he's dead.
+Baamrani Dammm.... This guy really was funny his content and stories but how did he die and when.
Zakaria Ali A massive stroke back in 2011. Very funny guy.
"Cus she don't like guns"
I can't.
Once I hear that shit come out of someone's mouth, I'm out!
+lesbiansaregoodandch He's talking about the joke, not sensible gun reform
+Anthony Koutsogiannis im wondering if they were referring to people saying "I cant" or "i cant even".lol
Classic
whatever commie lol
"Patrice looks like he's starting his own line of barbeque sauce" - Bob Kelly
Robert if you might!!! :p
SockMyDink yeah. but he died:(
You can't just say that line without the intro it's because Patrice was wearing a red and white plaid shirt
+Jeff F No it's because of the hat with a feather he was wearing
+Anima HQ you are dead wrong. They talked about it on Opie & Anthony, with Patrice himself giving Bobby credit for the great line.
Patrice was the realest dude.... R.I.P
Legend🙏
King Boston respect ✊
Patrice O'Neal was one of the great comics. He had such a natural flow on stage. The world lost a great entertainer, but we were lucky to have him for the short time that we did!
He's still with us on video. He and all of us were lucky to be born in this period of time to have records (video) of awesome people.
He was such a natural entertainer. He made it look so comfortable.

Lord please take amy schumer and give us back patrice.
Ain't that better ??
You shut in clowns and you fixation on Amy Schumer. What sorry excuses you all are.
- God doesn't want Schumer. You're gonna have to go in the other direction. 😉
@@learntospellpeople check the irony of some dude with an Arab sounding name defending women.
Real talk I probably wouldn't care if she died, at all. it would be kinda like the news thing
Men want to be alone, but we don't wanna be by our self. = Genius!!!
You got the quote wrong you stupid fuck!
"Ain't that betta" is one of my favourite standup bits of all time. So good.
"How come you didn't get me up? You snuck out of bed."😂😂😂
Patrice dressed like he has to go play the trumpet after this
lmao
Ain't that better
Lmao ...
He would have liked that one
Then he would have teased ur gay medieval mask that says slap my ass I’m mr slave
We need him more then ever. And where is he? Off being dead. So selfish.
LMAOOOO he would have loved this
YOOOOO CHILL HAHA
How dare he?
Couldnt agree more.Can you even imagine a 2020 Patrice Oneal.Man.....but yeah need him around more than ever for sure.
PATRICE WOULD HAVE DIED AT THIS LOL
One the best ever to do it. Truly miss this man.
🙏RIPLegend
If my tears could build a bridge I would cry all the way up to heaven to bring you back down with us again
Because of this anytime my wife does something she knows I don't want to do, she says, "Ain't that better?"
lol
Ur wife is a LEGEND
@Tom Kay .. Your wife has a great sense of humor!
Lol
She’s savage a keeper
I’ll never forget how hysterically hard I laughed the first time I heard this bit. Patrice was amazing. R.I.P.
Patrice o'neal, George Carlin, Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr are in my opinion the greatest comedians to walk the earth.
Patrice O'Neal
Dave Chappelle
Louis CK
Bill burr
George Carlin doesn't count because he is a philosopher.
Katt williams
Norm Macdonald
"I don't even believe in ground karma!" LOL!!!
That bit about the couch, gimme your arm. This isn't a comedy set. It's the truth
+CallMeLum thats what made Patrice so great, he was willing to tell the truth even if it sounded like something you shouldn't say out loud.
+RedEyesRobotics Word.
Sungsam word up nigga
And then it's "Why do you always watch games at your friend's house?!"
It's like he described my life word for word. He hit everything man, the leg vine, the sandwich, all of it.
Patrice was a better couples' therapist than most psychologists.
Patrice O'Neal's bit about what the woman says while the man is watching the baseball game had me laughing/crying because it's the TRUTH! I think O'Neal secretly has been bugging my living room!
Roger Plummer He understood the nature of women to a T.
When he said “ain’t that better “ I’m in tears 🤣
patrice looks like a numbers runner from the 60's
- colin quinn
He was trying to hard to imitate Steve Harveys look imo, lol.
if the blues brothers were black...........
Pool shark
My dad was a numbers runner from the sixties.
"wrap her leg around yours like some kind of love vine". hella funny!
That's me!!! My boyfriend is always boiling cos I'm all interwined with him
"hot vine"
he said hot which made it way more funny
"uugghh alright try to tell the story" lmao
+Jason Stewart I died at that part LOL
The first time I finally gave Patrice a chance and it was hilarious, as well as truthful.
grass hopper you should check out his live shows
Lol. Same
Ain’t that better?!
I used to be a racist before I heard Patrice. Now I'm a sexist instead. Ain't that better?
Sokrabiades haha
get into Bill Burr stuff and you'll become a sociopath, ain't that better? lol
and @Othman Chaouki That's funny lol
This is a god damn good comment.
aint that better?
that " ain't that better" joke is so well done.
fucking patrice o neal, miss the hell out of this guy! rip
I put Patrice Oneal up there with dave chappelle, chris rock, george carlin etc.
4 sho.. My nigga my nigga
TheFutureKing Robin Williams?
Burr?
Don't forget Paul Mooney he writes for a lot of those legends.
@@amneenja5720 Hell no. I love Robin Williams, but he stole WAY TOO MANY jokes from other comedians to be put in that upper-tier of Carlin, Pryor, Chappelle, Burr, Patrice, etc.
Only comedian that I remember almost every bit I hear of his
Finally figured out my relationship with my husband from 4:26 to the end. So frickin funny! RIP Mr. O'Neal❤️
same here! He was amazingly spot on
👍
@kimsjustice09 please please do not keep that a secret, it is now your mission to let every female on this planet know.
If not for humanity and the future of the human species, do it for Patrice!
Frickin? Really?
@@gcrazy64 humor much?
Patrice was one of the best comedians of all time
Yes sir
I never listened to any of Patrice's stuff until a few days ago, sorry it took me so long, he is great.
Dude, let me help you out, jusy go to the Cult of Black Philip channel and it's an ample catalog of his greatness.
🙏Legend
"alright, go ahead... try to tell the story." LMAO
Ain't that betta!
LIBERATION UNIT
That was the realist sh!t ever!!
Does anyone else forget on a regular basis that Patrice is dead? His material is so good, so current, that it almost seems impossible it wasn't written yesterday. Truly a fucking comedic genius and a master of being happy.
His material is timeless
I can rewatch the same bits they never get old
What he's dead
Gerard Byrne I remember on the regular to rewatch everything every 6-12 months 😂😂
A turkey sandwich on 47 grain bread with No mayonnaise and bean sprouts,
tastes like rat turds and twigs! hahahahaha
God bless Patrice..........we miss you man
Dec.7: Happy birthday Comedian Patrice Malcolm O'Neal (1969-2011) Thank you and God bless. RIP Thanks for the upload, EscherReturns. Blessings
Happy birthday Patrice O’Neal R.I.P.
I wish there was a documentary done on him. His material never gets old.
There’s a couple on RUclips. They’re more interviews with other comedians, but you get a real sense of who and why Patrice was
There is one. I forgot the name but search on Google. All comedians talk about him.
I *REALLY* hope there's an extended, uncensored version of the "Ain't Dat Better?!" bit, because it's fucking BRILLIANT. The audience was in stitches, fully aware of how much insight O'Neal had into their own lives and romantic relationships.
Also Known As There is, it's on a clip called nasty show 2. It's on the second part of the two clips.
sloovy mann nasty show 2 part 2 wmv
When he was alive he didnt get the international credit he deserved. Rip a comedic legend
Died as he reached his prime. RIP Patrice!
Still 1 of the greats
Patrice channeling his inner Steve Harvey with that outfit XD
Real rap
Patrice is biggie- Steve Harvy is Tone Loc
@prostate massager reviews .. That’s all he’s channeling, cause Steve Harvey sucks as a comedian. Not funny at all!
😂
prostate massager reviews Initially, that’s who I thought it was. I thought it was Harvey introducing Patrice to the crowd.
Just woke my wife up laughing so hard. We are not in the same room!😂😂😂
Patrice masterfully dissects every relationship in the audience and they love him for it.
The end is arguably the greatest 2 minute stretch I ever watched. Literally in tears right now, lol. It just got better and funnier.
He would be shredding the comedy scene right now. Rest in power 🤝
For real, Patrice in the podcast era would have been unreal to witness.
Patrice is one of the greats!
One of the GREATEST
Greats!

Oh man I miss Patrice. He was one of the funniest comedians ever.

That last guy they show in the crowd is just busting up laughing LMAO. so funny
Thank you for uploading this

You are very welcome
Ain’t that better?

Big Dev Kyser this story made me sad
Unbelievably hilarious! Holy cow🤣🤣🤣
Now me and my wife walk around the house asking each other " AIN'T DAT BETTA??!!!"
God take Amy Schumer and bring back Patrice please! "Wouldn't that be betta"?
Yes
Come up with your own jokes, Patrice would be ashamed lol
. Amy Schumer for Patrice? it's like, give me the Bentley for my old worn-out slippers.
Dammit. He was so great. Both funny and just speaking his mind. The world is a lesser place without him.
Part of my 10 year marriage wrapped in 7 minutes
One of the greatest ever.. Another legend to the books. carlin ,Pryor, Patrice.... Rip pimp
Because of this, all I can think about when a woman walks into the room is ""Whatcha doin????" or "Ain't that better??" in a soprano voice! LOL #47GrainBread
"Go ahead , try and tell the story "... That little "try" gets me every time 😆😆😆
“Ain’t that better?!” One of my favorite bits of all time
his style is legend. similar to bill burr- relentless line after line with no pauses!
Boston!
That last bit was awesome
I don't often comment videos, but that technique, that natural delivery like he's making it up on the spot. My got... Love this guy.
This man is a prophet
Such a classic natural comedy don't come around anymore.
R.I.P. Patrice O'Neil.
What a legend!!!
I kept us all alive, let somebody handle the ground.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
How is this still funny and I've seen it fifty times? This was an incredible comedian
You have no idea how #FUNNY and #TRUE that whole routine was!!! (LOL!!!)
you have no idea how much i want to throw hot soup in your face for using those hashtags.
SockMyDink #shutup because #itsnotthatserious
FURY ANDERSON Funny and true are almost always synonymous.
SockMyDink thank you so do I, cant just fucking type a sentence without pointless fucking hash tags.
straight up roasted his gf on the stand up routine
I always come back and watch this.... probably the funniest few minutes ever.... love it so much... A'int that better?
Love this guy, just got into his stuff recently and it's a shame he is gone. Amazing mind who tells it how it is
We miss Patrice because his perfect comedic skills and because he found the right words to say to women what men meant to say for centuries,
"taste like rat turds and twigs" that line always cracks me up!!!
I've seen every Patrice clip ever and never found out who got shot
did Dianne get shot? nah? did she shoot somebody? nah? WHO GOT SHOT
A lotta comics try to do that “everyday problems” routine but Patrice always did it with perfection. RIP
He was so close to being the worlds biggest comic when he died, but he still needed a few cheeseburgers to catch up to Ralphie
Paul Thoresen loool that was pretty clever.
American Show business Hey stop hurting my feelings
English speaking biggest*
ralphie? never heard of her
Man hes a legend. Watching Patrice, Quinn and Norton on Tough Crowd was some of the best television ever
I just read Kevin Hart's book and he had some good stories of Patrice and how he took him in and mentored him as he came up in comedy. They were even roommates for a bit. Really miss O'Neal, RIP bro
When you're a lovable character like this dude, you can get away with saying fucking anything! Patrice the GOAT
Emil Hansen yessir. how ya'll love Craig Ferguson? crying laughing@the end
