@@mistrterrancebutler The piccolo player didn't know how to play any of the songs, so the punchline guy wanted to know who called him a piccolo player in the first place.
@@mistrterrancebutler 1) It's the irony of it that the punchline guy is pointing out --- The guy holding the piccalo is a motherphucker -- He never was a piccalo player --- and 2) Irony jokes often have unexpected punchlines --- well in this case you keep wondering, "Where is he going with all this man sittin' next to the man, sitting next to the man crap - and he repeats the whole thread twice - once for the Preacher and once for the punchline guy - which in and of itself is funny - but then when he reaches the stop sign with "What I wanna know is who called that Mfer a piccalo player," It's more than a punchline at that point, it's a huge payoff for your patience of listening to so many "Man sitting next the mans... and then 3) the setting is a church in Compton... and this kinda thing could happen in a church in Compton - remember 95 percent of what makes a joke funny is its relevance to real life and the inherent humor is directly proportional to the plausibility of the scenario actually having had happened on many, many occasions.
I remember my parents listening to Rudy Ray Moore, Richard Pryor, Mom Manly and others as far back as when I was just in elementary school and now I'm over 50.
My man Elton had this cassette (yeah I'm that old) my freshman year at Hampton and was playing it in his dorm room across the hall. RIP Robin Harris and Tiny Lister!!
Even though this is actually an old joke--White comic Gene Tracy does a hilarious version as does one of the kings of the Black Party Records Rudy Ray Moore--Robin Harris updates it and makes it even funnier. Just further proof that classic comedy is timeless. Harris' version is by far the funniest.
Rudy Ray Moore (aka Dolemite) also did this one in the 70s. I think this is one of those jokes like The Artstocrats where many comedians put their spin on it.
I would’ve loved to see Robin Harris and Bernie Mac on stage together.
You ain’t the only one!
Imagine how dope the Kings of Comedy would have been with Bernie and Robin!
I just said the exact same thing. Those two on stage would’ve been one hell of a show.
There would be no survivors. Everyone would laugh themselves to death.
Yes! RIP to them both.
Never knew he was talking about Tiny Lister aka Dbo..
RIP Robin Harris
RIP Tiny Zeus Lister
RIP Tiny Lister. RIP Robin Harris
yeah,,, gp.

This joke is stolen from gene Tracey
Totally agree!!!

My all time favorite I wish he was still here he is funny as hell
This never gets old
This is pure art.
Just realized that the “sitting next to the man” concept is from a Big Daddy Kane song. Just realized it watching Verzuz with Krs-One.
more than likely Big Daddy Kane borrowed it from the joke.
He's talking about Tiny "Deebo" Zeus!!! Boy he was dangerous wit da comedy😂😂😂😂😂
I just found that out today from Big Worm..
I thought so. And I think he got on Eazy and them that night too.
@@rellyrellisreallyreal2304 And Big Worm voiced Robin Harris
Still no one better than Mr. Robin Harris!!!
Just realized that when he says "how you doin' Tiny?" you can hear Tiny Lister Jr. say "how you doin' man?"
RIP True 👑 of comedy!
I remember working one of real early Kings of Comedy tours back in the late 90's. Bernie and Robin Harris onstage together would have been epic...
This is my all time favorite!!!

Sorry to break the bad news but I heard this joke from Gene Tracy back in the 1970's
Rudy Ray Moore is the originator of this joke Robin added his own twist to it and made it his
Iamnobodi brought me here 💆🏾♀️✨
Deebo Got Herb'd by Robin Harris!
Rest in peace!
Can't Fuck With a Funny Man!
Classic lol
I use to reply this stand up constantly!! Lol
I 🤔 did he watch on episode of dragon ball z lol either way this is funny
Total plagiarism!!! He ripped this off from Gene Tracy. I heard this joke in the 70s from Gene Tracy talks trash.
Rudy Ray Moore (aka Dolemite) also did this one in the 70s. I think this is one of those jokes like The Artstocrats where many comedians put their spin on it.
Now Robin was the real deal kevin hart is funny but Robin could teach these new guys something
no comparison
I'm not sorry funny but this is why I cannot call internet people comedians
This is a Gene Tracy bit.
Yes it is. Imitation: the sincerest form of flattery. The remake, though, is better than the original - by far.
Hilarious
Tiny Lester?
It's a funny joke but can somebody explain the joke to me.
@Flip Arrachi I don't get the joke though it's funny.
@Flip Arrachi it's funny because how Robin Harris way of telling it, his delivery.
😂😂😂👊🏿👊🏿
