Chris Rock: Kill The Messenger

This is Chris Rock's fifth stand up special Kill The Messenger and as with all his previous works this shit is CLASSIC. Rock delivers this brilliant special just months before the most significant election of my lifetime and hits every issues right on the head. Now I know that Chris isn't exactly as big with the female fan base as say Jamie Foxx or Martin Lawrence but withstanding all of that Chris Rock is the King of Kings in stand -up comedy right now and an All-Time Great.

To be so smart, funny, honest and insightful all at the same time is a rare combination in any comedian and Rock has proven he can deliver all that and more. He is truly a comedian ahead of his time. You want proof? Listen to Chris Rock's most famous and controversial segment "Niggas vs Black People" from his Award-Winning Stand Up Special Bring The Pain (1996) and then listen to Barak Obama's fatherhood speech (2008), and you'll see that many of the topics that Obama touched on (such as low expectations and the self-destructive anti-education/intellectualism ideology within the black community). Chris Rock did as well, only Rock did it 12 year earlier.

In a 60 Minutes interview Chris Rock later said this about the controversial segment:

"I've never done that joke again, ever, and I probably never will. 'Cause some people that were racist thought they had license to say nigger. So, I'm done with that routine."
