Richard Pryor Dies

Postby Emiliano on Sun Dec 11, 2005 10:58 am

Richard Pryor died. He was 65. He was a great stand-up comedian. Personally, I'm a big fan of stand-up comedy and I watch Comedy Central stand-ups everyday. Anyways, here is the link

Wasn't he really sick, or am I confusing him with someone else? :?:

"I made ni----s laugh all day long(in jail)....keep their mind off the booty!"

"You go down to the jailhouse looking for justice, that's what you find, JUST US!"(black folks)

"White folks got themselves some new n-----s - the Vietnamese!"

"They got all the Vietnamese in Army camps and sh!t, taking tests and stuff, learning how to say n----r - so they can become good citizens!"

"Be careful if you get some Vietnamese p---y, jack - they got a VD scare the sh!t out of penicillin!"

"Someone told me you put cocaine on your d---, you could f--- all night...shouldn't have told me that! My d--- had a jones! Six hundred dollars a day just to get my d--- hard!"


I could go on and on.....

This is truly a sad day. I grew up listening to Pryor, Redd Foxx, Rudy Ray Moore and 'Wildman' Steve Gallon, but Richard was THE KING of them all. He put his soul into his comedy. There'll never be another..

RIP, mutha------

Check out "That N-----'s Crazy" and "Is it Something I Said?" You'll be rolling on the floor laughing.

Don't really find him funny but RIP.

Edit: Before anyone decides this is a racial thing, I just don't really like American comedians as a whole. I respect him alot though

Those are just recordings, right? I've got "The Anthology" though. I'm always partial to a video performance though.

Yeah, they're recordings. Some of the bits from That N-----'s Crazy & Is it Something I Said are on The Anthology. But you should get those two.

"I went to Zimbabwe...I know how white people feel in America now, relaxed! Cause when I heard the police car I knew they weren't coming after me!"

*sigh* he was great.
He was a a awesome c omedian, and "stir Crazy" has got to be one of the best movies I have ever watched.

Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, all tried to emulate Richard Pryor.
