Part 2: • Carl Jones on Becoming...
--------
Carl Jones, the co-executive producer and artist of popular television series, "The Boondocks," offered a comprehensive look into his development and ascent in the world of visual arts. With his talent evident from a young age, Jones was encouraged by his father, an artist himself, to hone his skills. As a youth, Jones developed a reputation for his drawing abilities, even charging his peers to create images of pop culture icons like Prince and Michael Jackson. His talent was officially recognized in grade school when he entered a gifted and talented art class. - บันเทิง

Boondocks was ahead of its time.
Unfortunately, Boondocks was perfect for its time. The Boondocks wouldn’t survive in todays generation. Too soft now
No it was in the right time. Cause it wouldn’t be able to do all the things they did back then today unfortunately
@@brandan2468 You're right because it all it does is perpetuate black stereotypes
It’s a cartoon they can do w/e they want like South Park and family guy
Young reezy
Give this man his flowers 💐 💯 Boondocks was ahead of it’s time 💯💯🔥
I think alot of people couldn't deal with how real it got at times.. the teacher says the Nword episode is a classic. When you see Riley and grandad made sure he put the glasses on before the interview. The look on his face when they asked him "did you say the n word first?" Is so spot on to how the real interview went. It was always very real to the things it referenced
💯
I was just talking to my coworker about boondocks🙏🏿💯. I’m watching after I make dinner
Boondocks wasn't ahead of its time, it WAS it's time
The Boondocks didn’t make fun of Black people. It put a mirror up to the ignorance.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the show made fun of black folks come on now!!! Lol
@@flyguy7825 maybe a lil🤏🏿. 😆
@@mistersippiburning 🤣🤣🤣 You mad huh?
@@flyguy7825 not even a little.
The same thing Charleston White doing, but we got to keep it real, it was all about the ignorance of black people who say they with the culture, but destroying it because of thier DADDY, for the love of money, ect. Loosing all morals and integrity! Thank God for Boondocks 😂😂😂😂😂
This guy should be more popular… great story and live his energy…
Carl’s story of how he learned to draw was so sweet. Loved to hear it. These are the kind of things I want to hear from these interviews
I remember I watched a bootleg movie the guy that was recording turned the camera and said this my favorite part😂😂
Thats hilarious lol
Heard that joke before.
I miss the boondocks so much
Same i go back and currently rewatch now that I’m older
I hate how they tried to take so much control with season 4. Boondocks should still be going on now like a “family guy.” But the network wanted all the control and leave him out of it.
It was poking fun at the ridiculous government and social order we have. They couldn’t allow that. Season 4 was complete trash and had no moral meaning in episodes like seasons before
Dave chappelle and the chappelle show. They didnt see them catching fire. Its like hip hop once they see the money , they try to control it and ruin what makes it worth watching.
Not exactly. They wanted more episodes made during a certain time period. McGrudder thought the demand was unreasonable.
As a former bootleg CD/DVD I respect his hustle😂. I use to sell those Madea movies to all
the churches in the city and Paid in Full to every hood dude leaving the club.
Same 😂. I even wrote a book about it
“You made me a lot of money”😂😂
Preach!!!!
I love how Vlad always tries to set up the next interview. ‘It’s your first time here.” Trying to speak another interview in existence. The power of positive thinking
lol
Gotta speak shit into existence. Part of being good at ur craft
@@vladtvtell'em it ain't even that deep lol😅
@@jaywills5898❤9
I97😂❤❤o❤❤I oomi🎉🎉😂
Asking a artist if he ever got caught up is wild. Vlad try everybody
Even before his artistry like wtf
Its a tragedy that Boondocks has been off tv for so long. Think about all the material and jokes they could use to make episodes now.
Teachers are so important to our society man. I feel so fortunate to always have had teachers similar to the ones he was describing
Facts. I used ti disagree with that but I've changed my stance after seeing this interview 💯
I wish I can go back and thank my teachers. It’s been more than 20 plus years.
👏🏾👏🏾 Now get Aaron McGruder !
Yo I thought boondocks was Aaron shit 🤔
@@maxmartin4296 most def. He didn’t do season 4. So that’s why season 4 kinda ass .
it would be nice, but i heard he's hard to track down. he's not on social media . i did read he's a reclusive .
Vlad always gotta make the story about him somehow 😂😂
ong talm bout he was drawing😂
Listening to this made me realize that he does the voice for Thugnificent 😂
My cousin and I use to stay up throughout the night watching his skits as tubesteak (iykyk) had us waking everyone up dead asf!💀💀
Even tho he a animator, dude was hilarious asf😂😂
Bro tubesteak was what first got me hooked on TH-cam
Yeah I’m confused why he said it’s his first time here when he has like 3 Tubesteak videos with Vlad up on this channel lol
Never knew that was him lol
Now this is cool seriously this guy is really talented i enjoy his work
Inspirational.
I'm currently following the same path. Hope to cross paths one day. Boondocks is still a gamechanger
We need a boondocks spin off now that grandad gone
John Witherspoons son does a great impression of him... just saying 😏
I love how this man is so chill and well spoken...
Carl Jones has an animated movie called Freaknik The Musical. Im thinking Warner Bros holds the rights to it but MAX hasnt dropped it yet. Its funny as hell. Has this song where the main character a Freaknik ghost sings how he gonna save strippers.
Maddddddd props to DAD. MEN BE A DAD TO YOUR SONS!!!!!
sadly most moms try to get back at the fathers by not letting them see they kids. when really they just hurting the kids
So bro from Fayetteville?...thats crazy never knew he was from there....still qc until i die!...💪🏼
THANK YOU FOR THIS INTERVIEW!!!!!
Vlad is so blind he can’t even see how his privilege got him somewhere vs Jones gift got him where he was.
Jones was selected to go to his gifted class.
Vlad’s parents enrolled him into a gifted/art class.
Exactly! Exact definition of privilege
It's tubesteak! Lol
You a real one for that 😂 💪🏾
The Legend Carl Jones 🤝🏾
I have the boondocks newspaper collection books. This icon captured American history of the era. It's like viewing an American time capsule through the eyes of African Americans.
He used to bootleg Vlad tapes 💀💀 salute to VladTV bringing everything back full circle
Not gonna lie, at first I thought 'Why is Grafh using his real name?' lol
We finally got Vlad's villain origin story 😂
The story about Vlad getting “💩’d on” by the Russian art teacher was so unnecessary
Na that means something Vlad getting shut down he turns into a Dj a kid named Adolf gets shit on by a art teacher he became Adolf Hitler
@@xxxmetalslugga5349 reaching bad
Hearing his upbringing and the similarities to myself are wild. My father was an artist as well. Everybody always pointed me out in school as the class artist. And I started making money drawing what they wanted in my spare time. In high school my art teacher was a Mrs. Coleman who always encouraged me and my work. Kind of starting to regret falling back on it so much. But Thank You for all you’ve done Mr. Jones 💯
Right they kept the Simpsons, oblong, family guy but not the boondocks is so crazy I started reading it in the Detroit fresspess news paper back in 1998 so to see it come to life was sooooo Dope!
Youre work is second to NONE! YOURE THE FUCKIN MAN!
I love this dudes stories about the past. Vlad u need to DEFINITELY bring him back!! I know u asked him about the "booty warrior", cant wait for u to post that vid!! 😂😂😂
he's the voice of the booty warrior
Vlad doesn’t go with the booty warrior so he gets the creator of the show haha
This is such a great interview
That’s crazy I remember looking forward to Playpen always wondered what happened.
This was good a one! Being artist myself I can relate to Mr. Jones's background of growth. Art was like sports for me.
That’s crazy J Cole was born in Germany and from Fayetteville too, them NC boys was running to the military back in the day
Didnt he do Cannon Busters as well? Dude is a legend
Vlad saw the Comedy Hype interview and said I need to hop on that wave lol
You really don't know comedy hype is small fish compared to Vlad right 😂
@@xxxmetalslugga5349 you really missed the point I was trying to make. Carl just had an interview a couple of weeks ago on a different platform, explaining all of the same stuff. And now coincidentally Vlad has an interview with him asking him about all of the same stuff? Idgaf about Comedy Hype and def don’t care to the level that you care about defending Vlad. I was just calling out what I saw.
@keithxwright6747 defending man that used Vlad platform back in 2010 tubesteak comes with working with Vlad during a writers strike Vlad is actually friends with the creators of Boondocks unlike Comedy Hype who has no connections to them a spade is a spade what's next you're going to discredit the Wayans Brothers for Making Jim Carrey a star based on how you feel.. facts don't care about what you like or your feelings
Great interview. I love everything about the Boondocks. That Jacket and Hat tho 👀
I got every season of Boondocks and still watch them faithfully to this day
How can I get it?
@@belik1119 I still have them on DVD lol....I got them off Ebay
Good interview give us more of him
Wow, small world crazy how things come full circle!
Tubesteak the Great! Him and Slink Johnson came along way from them worldstar skits
Wow love this show
He predicted so much in that show
Predicted what things? I thought they depicted stuff that already happened
@silewis9396 he predicted rappers wearing skirts and handbags
Predicted the usher situation predicted the world going crazy over chicken and fighting in line for it “Popeyes”
Thugnificent. GET MONEY MY NIGGA!! 😂😂
I was waitin on that State Prop cartoon too
910 , Fayetteville stand up 🔥💪🏾
Vlad is always trying 1up somebody's story 😂
I been working for vlad for 10 years and I ain’t never been invited to the party!
Special Agent Glad it wasn’t the teacher that prevented you from being an artist it was your lack of drawing ability cut it out. His teachers acknowledged his drawing talent and yours acknowledged your lack thereof. They did you a favor though because them keeping it 100 with you led you down a path to discover your true calling and become super successful in law enforcement.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Super successful in law enforcement is WILD 😂😂😂😂
I remembered timberland rocking the Carl Jones T-shirt the young me jus had to have one
Tube steak
Back on the block like we always do !
I still watch The Boondocks like it just came out. I need some new episodes, especially with all the bullshit that has been going on in the years that have gone by. Covid, celebrity drama, etc.
My nigga TUBESTEAK!😂😂😂
Another good one, Vlad
I remember when young Chris and them was saying they had cartoons . That idea was trash lol
That State Property cartoon sounds hilarious
I sold DVDs back in the day too. Mine had 6 movies in 1 DVD. Crazy profit margin 🤑
Vlad always gotta mention himself”also the reason WHY I WAS BOONDOCKS EPISODE” 😂😂jp
I love Carl Jones. I remember watching his Tubesteak videos on TH-cam a long, long time ago now. Also he had Slink Johnson aka Lamar from GTA V in those videos before he popped off. I wish they were all still up or re-uploaded to TH-cam. They were extremely funny. All that's left last time I checked is someone uploaded a compilation, but it doesn't have every video in there.
Another Legend in the Culture that Dame Dash put on & we didn't knw about I knw Vlad was punching the air when he said the Roc gave him his first shot lol
I feel em I’m a great drawer I’m just not passionate about it I can go years with out drawing anything then out of no where I’ll get inspiration
Vlad and hitler got the same origin story 😂
That vlad intro sound is legendary 🔥
Vlad just need to interview Fleece johnson at this point. Because his name going to be brought up in this interview
Every child starts off and artist , the trick is to remain one as she or he grows old. Pablo Picasso 🎉
My man tubesteak 😂😂😂
Wow that was my art teacher name when i was in high school at lansdown high school
“I was the Nino brown of bootleg DVDs…”
You can tell some the quips on boondocks was all him…
Senor piñata
Aiyyo tubesteak still go hard to this day😂
Vlad always relate himself to every story is being told
He’s got a lot of experiences let him cook lol
Tubesteak!!
As soon as he spoke
Those were rival DVD bootleggers 👀
Yo Usher taking your girl is a Simpsons moment, for real lol
surprised he didnt put the dvd situation in the boondocks😂
Laughter is healing ❤
I just realized who this is...he got slapped my metaphor the great. His homeboy was crying 😂
i just peeped that too, also it's crazy cause the homeboy that was crying was Slink Johnson (Lamar from GTA V)
Shout out to Fayettenam! That was my first duty station and first place I lived outside of KY.
Murchison road used to sketchy af. Shutting down the Waffle House of the corner of Skibo and McPherson Church rd after the club...A lot of great memories there!
That state prop cartoon would still be a hit
Shout out to Tubesteak.
Yo this is soo crazy. I bought so many Mixtapes from tjis dude when i was like 13. 2002 my brother got his first car and we needed CD's and got directed to this huy right outside the merk in Fayetteville nc. Do your homework on The Merk in Fayetteville NC! Trenches
Love that his jacket is from @chyariart!!
My boy Tubesteak
Safe to say he’s a product of NC!!✊🏾✊🏾💯 stand up NC
Part of this was told on the series
“Confessions of a ex nuwaubian”
Long live langston channel
Vlad interviewed me in the phone in 2008 for a ghost ride the whip dvd
I see Carl Jones… I click.
My man (rip) from Brooklyn used to go down to Fayetteville NC to hustle and see his family. Carl Jones sounds like he was from the tri- state area.
I’m in Wilmington now and Fayetteville seem sweet Wilmington way crazier

He sounds like Michael jai White a tad bit
This man done confessed to two different crimes 🤣
