@@sayedalazam4228 welllll he’s a comedy legend so shows how smart you are. He’s right up there with Eddie Murphy, Bernie Mac(rip) and all them comedians. But clearly you wouldn’t know about any of the legends or you wouldn’t be talking so short and stupid.
You can definitely tell that most of these comedians who appeared on the show were well ahead of their time. Eddie Griffin, Chris Tucker, and Bernie Mac were just sensational
Just watched a documentary where he said he had already gotten an HBO special and Martin convinced him to do this a few weeks before.. or something like that
@@ezradlionel711yeah it was a great idea, Martin told him to do it so he would get a buzz for his upcoming HBO special. It helped increase the viewership by a lot
Lawrence Chavious Bernie Macs is memorable fasho can’t no one argue with that due to the very fact he was fighting an uphill battle. That crowd was out for blood and Bernie straight murked them. That being said, me personally I would give the tie up with Eddie since his routine touched upon a lot of historic events and made the funniest ish out of them. He truly did stand out. The cats you mentioned are hilarious too specially Ted Carpenter. Sad he didn’t my get his shot on TV.
This was when Def Jam first started off and didnt have a name....I remember Eddie Griffin was not going to do this because getting up for 5 minutes didn't make sense when HBO already had him booked for a 30 minutes show, but Martin Lawrence persuaded him to come on saying: you can get your name out there just by doing this for 5 min, and when your HBO show comes out everybody will know who you are and tune in for the HBO show...Eddie was like "that's a good idea nigga!" and it work
And racist. ‘He got a white woman at home.... no ass...’ thats a negative racial stereotype. Thats like a white comedian saying ‘He got a black woman at home.... no straight hair.... course he out there feeling that white womans straight hair...’ Correct me if I’m wrong
first time watching and i thought so too. if you pay attention once his time was up it was wrapped around his legs loosely. he stepped out of it before he walked off stage.
😁😁😁😁😂😂 that was off da chain. I got weak ass hell when he did the Michael Jackson impression. I lost it after that. Lol. He dirty talkin bout he on crack. Im in tears rite now😂😂😂
Damn he straight murdered the def comedy jam stage in 5 min... Pretty much owned the crowd from the first joke on...def comedy jam was super competitive in those days... And if the crowd wasn't feeling you, they'd definitely let you know it...
i think he's one of the great comedians of our time but the greatest of all time, I'm not too sure of that. He's definitely funnier than some of the cats that dubbed themselves the kings of comedy.
I remember being a kid watching this, being amazed at how funny he is. I also lived in Long Beach and was watching the news wondering if the riots would come to our backlot.

Idk bruhh this one, Bernie Mac's set, Chris Tucker or Ted Carpenter's set smh bruhh so many iconic set's it's ridiculous

This is up there with Bernie Mac and Chris Tucker
THE MOST funniest but underrated comedian
Fact
To me he's neck and neck with Chappelle, Michael Colyar and D.L. Hughley for that title.

lmao man underrated comment fasho
Stop it. They would boo that white boy out of NYC
Dave Chappell stoke his white man voice
His thoughts on Alexander Graham Bell and Ben Franklin were hilarious.
That Michael Jackson spin was clean you hear me.
OMG. This hilarious. No one ever speaks on Eddie G being funny as hell like Chappelle. He is definitely a top comedian
Them lips
You can tell Chappelle was inspired by Eddie
They were in the same movie Undercover Brother and they both tore it up
The audience were getting ready to boo him in the beginning
He killed that set
DESTROYED IT.
The most underrated GOAT of all time!
Classic performance from an all-time great. Who doesn't love this guy?
EDDIE TOO UNDERRATED, how he spin like that without getting tied up tho💀
“Long Dong Silver”
😂😂😂😂
Arguably, the 5 funniest minutes ever by a comedian! Classic!
This guy should have been richer than Kevin Hart and Will Smith!
Agreed ✨🙏👁🙏✨
He didn’t sell out
RESPECT for not selling out ✨🙏👁🙏✨
Will Smith & Kevin Hart movie stars Soo that beats comedy
My favorite
One of the greatest five minute sets in comedic history.
One of def comedy jam's greatest performances by a great of my time
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I died and came back to life!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Comedy ain't the same
Can't say enough about this man. One of my all-time favorite comedians. I could watch him do the MJ all day I swear
He rocked the house. I'm sure you could hear everyone from down the street.
Favorite comedian hands down!
Going 300mph in a Volkswagen 🤣
Classic!!
Eddie Griffin is so underrated. This is comedy at its finest!
His agility on stage in his younger days was remarkable to say the least
My FAVORITE comedian of all time!
I remember this back in the day....and today it's still just as hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏼👍🏼

There and then, Eddie killed the crowd and a comedy king was anointed.

*_-He still one of the greatest comedian of all time-_*
In bold huh. Well comedy IS subjective, but he DID just make me LAUGH, not just smile or a "uha", but LAUGH!`
i think he's one of the great comedians of our time but the greatest of all time, I'm not too sure of that. He's definitely funnier than some of the cats that dubbed themselves the kings of comedy.
