I didn't start to get well until Jesus saved me and how that ties in is that the world itself and the fallen in it and the temptations of it are a poison and a trap cleverly presented as success. Richard was at some stage of realizing truths of worldly existence as we know it. I hope he kept going; yet I'm saddened by his sorrow here and I hope he found the joy of The Lord (and it looks like he did!). I love his personal accountability and the maturity and humility it took for him to that point.
U hear so much talk today about legends... they call everyone a legend these days!!! But ladies and gentlemen here is the real deal! A giant in his chosen field... a true icon... R.i.p. Mr. Pryor! You gave laughter and joy to millions!
This is so precious. He was just another great potential who got caught in the traps of the system. I'm so happy he realized crucial things before dying.
It’s frequently the case that those rare comic geniuses, who come our way only every so often, also struggle so hard with psychological and emotional demons. Richard Pryor was one of those geniuses. I’m so glad he came to terms with it all, and made peace with it all before he died.
The most honest and most truthful interview ever given brutally honest in every way he was actually giving in to himself as a human being begging for some help from someone
I love pryor always have. Unbelivable talent. Perfect comedian. I Seen his movies and I have his book. ive red every page. Some of its tough to read... wat he went thru. Under all his my demons and darkness i believe he was a very good honorable man full of love.
It’s great to see that my entertainer hero, Richard Pryor, is not only a comedian that people loved. But I hope Richard knows that people loved ( love ) the ( man ) also.
Thank you. for this! when he said "y'know" it hurt a little because i dont think the interviewer understood. he looked so alone there. when he said that. I know Richard. i know.

"No matter who you are, or what you are, or what you do.....there is a YOU, that YOU must deal with eventually. To surrender, is one of the hardest things to do, for anyone. To surrender, to admit to yourself "GOD, i need your help. I can't do this alone".!" POWERFUL realization....
I was the 111 to hit like and when I went to pause ur video to write this sentence it was 222 ....I really just know it was my angles/ancestors sending me here to listen to this message & to let me know they are here with me always. And so it is! Thank you! 😊
I'm glad I've learned a lot from people over the years. just by me OBSERVING other's. I'm my best friend. I love being alone. even dying alone is one of my best choices that way I'll ONLY have MY luggage. NOT yours.
💜 Comedians normally show us a counterfeit persona on stage. That's to protect them. You can't hurt that guy or girl no matter what you say. Because that's not really them. But Pryor truly laid his cards face up in this interview.
God is the singular conscious we all share. Satan is when ur seperated. No communication between eachother. Humans are built to communicate with eachother. It's the source of our happiness and power. We can't fathom the powers that come with communication. Abilities that built the pyramids
Great overcoming speech. You can take that message without thinking of drugs. That message could not be faked it. That's the words of someone who had the experience.
This is one of the realest things I’ve ever seen in my life. 🕊️➕❤️ to anyone who is ready to make a change. You can do it, if my dumb ass got clean you sure as hell can too 🫂
Humor and comedy, the best of it, is always born (and bourne) from the deepest, darkest, and saddest corners of our souls. That is the fertilizer the flower springs forth from.
I had to give this video a thumbs down because of the quality. The background sound pretty much drowned out what Richard was saying. Richard was speaking in low and calm tone wich is fine, but all the noise in background made it difficult for me to hear him.
Even richard pryor knew money, fame, drugs, women etc nothing can fill that void you seek other then a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Deny it if you want, but I gaurantee you without Christ you will always be missing something. I know because I was that guy. Then I accepted Christ as my Lord and Saviour and woooosh, gone was that lonely lost feeling and in came the Peace.
Perhaps I am wrong, but Pryor was still not being as honest and real as he would be later in his life. In this interview I don't see any of the after effects (scars and burn marks) from having accidentally lit himself on fire while free basing coke and running to save his life while on fire, do you? This means this interview was done before he really had hit rock bottom and had to be truly honest with himself and the public.
How can you measure his honesty ? Why do you think a fire is the only low he has hit ? There are many lows in peoples lives. You don’t know the battles this man endured or the levels at which he became aware. People like you are so entitled, to think you know how honest a human is being while battling different things in life is sick & strange. The problem with the “public” is they feel like celebrities owe them their personal lives & should really just enjoy their talent!

Prove it, your full of shit. Pryor is a comedic genius who made a lot of mistakes but never done acts of cruelty on anyone but himself. Don't even put Diddy and Pryor in the same conversation. Pryor is an Icon and Legend.
Well done by the interviewer to let Richard flow like he did.
Got so much by saying so little.
Love you Richard.
I think that's Andrew Young.

Wow this interview been seen couple thousand times but when this man is high out his mind in a interview has a million views !
This was beautiful and real. 🤲🏿💯💯💯💯💯💯
Richard was as REAL as a person could possibly be.
The best comedians have so much trauma. Rest In Power Mr. Pryor! And thank you for your work.

If you call Perverts Legends , have at it
So many need to hear this.
This is so precious. He was just another great potential who got caught in the traps of the system. I'm so happy he realized crucial things before dying.
So so so true took a lot of guts to admit something that painful
He has incredible insight here. He always did. God bless you Mr. Pryor. You were the best and still are, in my books ❤

He spoke a truth that a lot of people need to realize. I hope he has found peace.
I certainly hope he found it in life, because there is nothing before or after.
You don't believe in an Afterlife?
@@MentalStillness No.
Keep it deep and real as always.
Thank you. for this!

I know Richard. i know.
How do you know if he didn’t understand? He may have known how Richard felt.
The Greatest!
It took a lot of guts to admit his weakness everybody has one in some shape or form
It's been that way for me for around 35 years and I love life. I found out you have to give up to win.
His words are enough. Get rid of the sappy music please.
I hate hate hate when they do that
I spotted the narcissist

😢😢thank you so much truth in his words of experience ✌🏾
It’s MY fault…all mine. You can’t man-up more than that. Mr. Pryor the GOAT, thank you for your spirituality. 👍🏾❤️🙏🏾🇳🇵

That happens to me a lot too.
Thats an amazing segment
Damn this was beautiful really got my Brain going
What you see on the outside is not always what's going on on the inside... This brother was hurting...❤️ U Richard
Beautiful
This is deep
He was brilliant fighting demons
the most brilliant are always wrestling with god
DEEP
I'm glad I've learned a lot from people over the years. just by me OBSERVING other's. I'm my best friend. I love being alone. even dying alone is one of my best choices that way I'll ONLY have MY luggage. NOT yours.
Very deep brother
Amen Lighrs.!!💕
Who picks the background music for these things?
Rest in peace brother
There's a heaven either, brother. And we would like to see you there, too.
What the hell with that music 😂

New subscriber here & this is deep. #RIPTRUELEGEND
In the end you’re alone with yourself and there’s no escaping that and that’s where he was at this moment no escape no retreat just himself
born alone die alone
We gotta do a podcast this year
Let’s do it
To realize you weren't being your friend by being there 💯
Brother was PROFOUND!!!
Made me think of Jim Carrey. Wonderful insight.
where’s the entire interview?
God is the singular conscious we all share. Satan is when ur seperated. No communication between eachother. Humans are built to communicate with eachother. It's the source of our happiness and power. We can't fathom the powers that come with communication. Abilities that built the pyramids
Don't worry guys, he is in Heaven, now.

Aaron Richard Pryor
Damn
Interesting that both Richard Pryor and George Carlin, two standup giants, had similar substance abuse issues.
Intelligence at 100 with Richard P
He was the best and also Bernie Mack
WTF is up with the droning sounds that make him sound crazy???

Talk about baptism by fire. 🔥

Music level competing with his voice. 🤦🏻.. -lower or take it out.

All these shrinks got all the answers for others but be the main one can’t get their life together.
That's Bill Cosby!
Tell whoever it is in the background, blowing that dreary clarinet every 2 seconds, to jog on as people are trying to listen.
The funniest clowns are always the saddest
Hate the music…
Shady Hollywood business
Richard Pryor was as funny as he was poignant.
Rich is so sensitive. He needed coke to perform
Tired of emotional ass background music killing the vibe.
Google Romans 10:9-10 right now!✝️
Sniffle-Sniffle…..3rd and 10 🏈

Everybody has a demon in there life that they have to overcome and if you don’t your a bold face liar
You guys realize pryor did tenntimes more evil stuff than Diddy. Ifonly diddy had been open about it ppl would forgive
