Damn that took a lot of balls
Myke Kelli sure does.... but it’s so worth it
@@ChrisKidder Ive always wanted to. multiple, literally countless people of all ages and colors in my life told me to do standup. I find that im funny on the spot though I don't know if writing might be different. plus takes some balls im bein a lil puss :/
yarub123 question is, if you don’t do it will you regret it when you are old
@@snekjuce did you ever try?
@@KokeBeast23 Wow completely forgot about that comment haha. Thanks for the nostalgia man. And actual standup no. But I have been joining online streams. At first I was gettin mad nervous and all the other feelings you get with that. Something I couldn't control like it happened automatically, you know that feeling when your adrenaline goes up. But the more I do it, the more easy it is. (These are streams with about 150-300 people when they're live and after they're published they garner over 3k views).
I'm not one to learn from, but if I could offer advice it would be to start small. Take some kind of step in the direction of exposing yourself on a microphone.
Hope that makes sense lol, take care brothaman.
"You don't have to be funny, but you do have to be interesting" - Dave Chappelle
If you're not funny, you're not a COMEDIAN. If you're interesting, you're more or less a motivational speaker/story teller. Clear difference my friend.
Well that counts me out.
Speedy is one of the only complex workers that are worth caring about
Julio El Chavez facts. Jinx, Speedy, Tahmra, Sean and Natasha
him and joe la puma, such a cool dude
And Racks
Umm joe Biden?
@@nimanixo joe BIDEN? 🤣
How to be a comedian: work for complex
Justin James you should of been on the stage
Fax now THAT was funny lmao
Speedy videos are one of the only things that keep me from unsubscribing from complex
that and joe lapuma vids (ofc)
The first joke hurt me :(
Well fuckin deal with it pussy, if you try your best, you'll get the joke! (Btw give the joke to your grandma)
CD Meme player edgy
@@ancientprezent7916 holy cow chill lmfao
I've been trying stand up for a year now. Hopefully my performance was glorious to all my beautiful fans who were watching
Props to you, Speedy. That's something that I've always wanted to do, but never had the guts to...maybe I'll try it soon.
Justin Trapp Good for you, trap!
Punk
Did you ever try it dude?!
@@jonmeehan7604 nope
@@jtrapp9634 come on dude! Make 2021 count! 👌
That first bit was so awkward, *I* took out 1 earbud.
You know when u actually wanna hear the reality around u it’s bad
"You do know Costco pays $15 an hour..." Super Funny.
Gott cut em costs
4:36 Holy fuck, perfecting timing. I died of laughter.
Zach Digital lol
I love the journey the short video took us through... I've always loved jokes and stand up but I don't know how to put some material down... After seeing this I might figure it out coz I know I'm not the only one who will have gone through level zero to go up... The week's progress is incredible...
Just do it
How r u now
This takes BALLS! Good job with that dude!
It’s normal to be terrible at something at first. Once you do it over and over you’ll eventually get good
This will work great for girls lol
TJ's face when he saw this dude get up there. He was like "Ha, ha, ha. Watch this disaster that's about to happen."
yo my body legit just went SKRRT after that first segment. THAT CRINGE DOE HAHAHAHAHAH. yo no G good job stickin in there bro. i felt for you. freal
Doctor Soles11 are you intentionally trying to be cringe? If you are, XD but if not then ur stupidly ironic
that was the loudest silence i’ve ever heard
It takes most stand ups years to not suck...and no one writes their jokes and does their first mic on the same night.
This was crazy af.
I did 😂
Joe La Puma and Speedy are saving Complex
I actually laughed at his second attempt. Speedy so brave!
Stage presence is everything my guy. Presentation can turn the tides between a sinking joke to a roar of laughs.
false. material is everything. stage presence is for hacks
LOL poor Speedy
Ik
that first joke was super ass i didnt get it. but deff improved lol
Yo speedy actually killed in that last performance!!
Proof that raw talent is not enough. With hard work, perseverance and confidence anyone can get somewhere
I was smiling. Happy for him on that progress the second time. Dude was feeling himself lol.
Someone should have warned him that no one ever laughs at open mics lol. Had your boy crushed.
But still, people spend their well earned down time to listen to be Entertained. Expectations are already decently high, even if it feels "I'm not going to expect much". Having gone to only 1 so far, feel completely near turned off to the idea of attending again. It wasn't just bad, it was an abomination-- these wannabe's seem to confuse being edgy and offensive with being funny (correlation doesn't equal causations). They should leave the super offensive material to the pro's, not that I got ptsd from it or anything, far from... but I would've paid to Not attend that particular showing-- there was only one half decent guy and 3-5 absolute "wtf are you doing on stage with all this deluded 'confidence', horrid material &/or no preparation!??"
@@Dman9fp that's decent material, you should work on it. Feel like I have seen those jokes somewhere else
Really? I’ve been in online ones and people chuckle
@@appletherapy3492 I mean they’ll chuckle. But open mic crowds are mostly other comedians staring at their phones waiting for their turn to go up.
That's not true at all
Speedy is hillarious 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂
Second set was way better. That first joint was dead son LOL
I was actually laughing at the last show. So far speedy is a man of many talents
Speedy bombing the first night was hilarious!
If Complex posts quadruple Speedy Morman content I will stay lol
Michael Meers Speedy and Sean are their superstars. COMPLEX MAKE SURE THESE MEN GET PAID
+Ryan Sheehan fff
When you hear a fresh voice you realize the difference in what years of experience does. I wish him luck!!
Having great stories that relate to the population helps
From the youth days to adulthood.
Comedians just turn stories into a tickle to death .
Depending on the audience and the bracket and level for controversy
Bro i never laughed so hard at 4:34 hahaha. That was too funny.
4:34 LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
He did Soooo good on the second one !!! 😁❤️
I can't watch speedy like this in 4.25 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥
Jeez a 4.25 40yd dash, wow that's kinda fast
lol speedy definitely has the character to do stand up😭
I kind of want to try this now
Well done my g! Yo Netflix, cut the fucking cheque, we need an hour special.
Steve Stevens they only just signed the chapelle. Stop givin these white people your money nigga
Great segment. Left me wishing it was longer. Subscribed to Complex
His first stand up was trash lmao
Hah
lamo
All comics have bad sets. I know I have.
Most people's first several dozen sets are trash.
Ice Wrld yep 👍🏼
genuinely enjoyed this video, hope he keeps it up. Great name for it too. Seems like a great guy.
No dude you don’t got time tonight is your first open night I rode. That was the funniest thing I heard so far.
Shit speedy funny lookin
I'm really digging this series. Keep it up Speedy!
This is actually really cute..I was nervous for him! People tell me to do stand up but just watching this my hearts pounding at the thought of bein on stage maybe one day! Lol I think he has it he was just nervous, which is completely normal !?
Speedy is the reason I'm subscribed to Complex.
Bro you did awesome
I performed at the New York Comedy Club (Midtown). They were closed for a while. So glad they're open again.
tough crowd 😭
Now I'm really proud I got a few laughs on my first open mic
Yeah bro that shit was funny
Good stuff Speedy!
You have a open mic tonight!!!! Bruh.lmy heart sink I know the feeling
It was more funny that nobody laughed 😂😂😭😭😭
Speedy definitely fixed up His act at the end
4:24 son sleepin in the front
That's a dope video. Congrats on doing Stand Up...keep going
4:20 that guy was enjoying it
the last 1 he did real good
I think he did good at the main event 💪🏾
nice video - would have liked to see how you workshopped your stuff a bit but nice to see so much improvement after just a week of practicing. im sure being confident helped!
Last show was definitely good.
I can extremely relate , I don’t write any of my jokes but they’ve been hitting hard lately
That last performance and your energy was on point dude fr I can actually see you doing comedy if you plan on stayin
he should have roasted him self when it went silent .. like my mama was right 😂😂
Booom....
He killed it at last😂😂🔥💓💓
Wow. Brave man.
I think I could do this, too.
I just recently started doing stand up as a hobby. Hopefully I can go somewhere with it
they did him dirty on the editing for the first set LOL
Good material Speedy. Profanity is always good. You can do this shit, keep it up bruh
Speedy has an unlisted job
The part where she said "WHAT what do u want" actually got me laughing
This shit is interesting
Love this series!❤️
Im doing this really soon!
I feel the awkwardness... I can't continue without feeling embarrassed for him.
4:34 😂
Yo... He can do this for real
I see it.....
I always make people laugh at school and work and sometimes I don’t even try just I guess I have it in me and I like it this is what I want to do
These vids are underrated
Big balls u got dude respect
Speedy a complex treasure
Lol I'm impressed! Makes me wana start!
I searched “how to be funny” on TH-cam just because of how desperate I was at this point. I just suck at doing or saying anything remotely funny.
When u are like "let me watch some yt videos!" then this video pop ups and im like "umm this video looks that it will make me laugh!" (opening the video)
(The video ends.)
Me:😑😶😑😶😑😶
this comment is shit
Speedy did really well 👏👏 had a few good laughs
speedy funny still
This should have more views
He was pretty good
Comedy has to be tough. You can’t hide amongst the team, or blame the weather, or your crotch itches. There’s no excuses!
I am from trinidad but I want to be a comedian
I would love to start off my talent I'm telling you it won't be unnoticed
This is beyond comedy it's almost tragedy/ edit dude recovered the last set was lit
This video give me the confidence to start statnd up, if they found that zero joke funny, then I have an easy ride.
he bombed it so hard. oof Good attempt
2nd one was pretty good
motivational
That was really good
