Bruh?! You are an embarrassment to the interviewing industry!😂🔥💯 You made it hard to stay here... but I did it for that Black Foundational Descendant of americanKKK holocaust SLAVERY beliver!🔥💯
I remember being a child and teenager watching him. I had the biggest crush on him. He, Redd, and Lawanda Page are still my favorites. I'm still watching Sanford and Son now( in my 50's). Mr. Wilson is just as handsome now as he was back then. Redd was very seasoned. He and LaWanda were standup comedians before the show was even started. People don't want to hear it but he's right. It's like taking care of a family member who has messed up their money. Why in the world would you want to give them some of yours to mess it up too. They aren't able to help you. They'll move on to the next fool that will give them some. It doesn't make sense. It's unfortunate but true. Valdosta, don't live too far from there. He's true about that too. My dad died at home, just seen him an hour before. He wasn't being cruel it's going to happen no matter where you are. You just have sympathy and empathy. I'm a nurse. It happens on the toilet. I'm sure people didn't want it to happen that way but it does. This interviewer was Not Ready 😮😢. Didn't mean to write a book but you are so right. He still mean a lot to us.😘. A part of Americana. Not just Blacks but All!. We all at some time had these family situations. No matter who you are.
Amen , We live in a world that the truth just doesn't matter any more ! I don't know if that is the precursor of corruption or if it is just the New technology, so to speak of corruption ! The truth does matter always as and will. It makes one feel powerless seeing so many wealthy talented people turn out to be such sale outs , or selling there souls to the Devil ! But oh how sweet it is , oh how inspiring it is to see and hear Mr , Sir Demond Wilson speak the truth. Wow ! What a true warrior and conquer of life! He did it his way ! Real Courage ! A Real Artist , A Real Man every boy should want to be , a Real Man every Man should want to be! What a great interview. I will be ordering ever book that Mr. Sir Demond Wilson wrote! Thank you Sir. Stay loyal to the truth no matter how ugly and evil it is no matter the Burden of the truth ! The Truth is the only damn thing permanent in life and in death ! And don't ware a fu#k'en Dress in public or on TV boys unless you are a Bit#h and are proud of it! Cry while you ware the Dress if ya want to Bitc#'es but don't Lie , be proud you a Beatch! 😂 😂😂 God Speed !
To see Demond healthy and doing well is such a blessing. It warms my heart to see him and hear him talk. Thank you for getting in UA-cam for the interview.
Why u think Denzel don't play that game but demond do got a point in Hollywood black Hollywood u don't leave clean lies look what happened to Michael Prince reason to smart for the biz when u know they'll destroyed u or death
I'm glad y'all like these characteristics. But that means y'all have to be the soft uplifting energy that up lifts Men up as well. Dudes from his age on up till about 2000 Are USED to hearing info like this.. spoken in the way he articulates it. He gave NO bs whatsoever. But this is why Men want soft women. At this level that Mr demond is at or trying to be.. we just want our women to realize, we want to lead the fam just like this Man is doing. Just respect us and be there for us.
@@theruddyone6443 Do "soft" people even really exist? Why do people keep trying to make other people conform to their own ideals of what they should be? Let men be who they are and let women be who they are, and it will all work out.
He's definitely a poor interviewer!. You have no knowledge of the guest that you've invited onto 'YOUR' show!?. No notes ,nothing!. WOW!...😮 How to say I'm only doing this interview for likes & views without saying it.
@@SunRidahhe did have notes and he said stop looking at the notes and he said he's asking to set the record straight.😂😂😂😂 dude was just annoyed because he was asking the questions and he said he did not want to look like the bad guy and thats not what he was trying to do. Could have been better, but he was a little off.
@fatcatpeople Uh Huh, all the signs of a poor interviewer, why spend all the time to come up with notes, only to not use them and it showed. Why waste the time if that was the case?. Even you agreed that it the interview was a little off. 🤷♂️ I.J.S
Demond Wilson needs to be heard more than a few UA-cam or podcast programs. This guy speaks the the truth and his wisdom needs to be shared with the masses.
Absolutely genius man. I love everything Demond Wilson states in this interview. He is a man. He is a US Veteran and I hope he is Service Connected 100% from his service to the United States. He has the same wife from 1974. Please interview him again to help teach Black men how to be men. He is a true Black Man. Thank you for interviewing him. Brilliant wisdom!
Blessings to you, for being respectful of history and of the players. The Pork Pie Hat reference ; Charles Mingus wrote a classic called “ Goodbye Pork Pie Hat “. A homage to the passing of the old days of Jazz . D Wilson is the best of the best of the 60-70s generation.
Sad that this interview is not in the millions of views because it should be. Demond is extremely insightful and very candid. I hope the interviewer understands the gift he just gave you. I’m sharing this with as many people as I can!
I really hope that you share this to as many people as you can! The bridge between the youth and are elders, it's very week unfortunately. If that bridge strengthens one day, the knowledge and bond of unity with everyone would blossom!
🤦🏾♂️ This brotha looks GREAT to be 77 looks more like 47 health is wealth!!! 584k views with only 21k 👍🏾 SMH y’all go hit that like button this is PURE 24k GOLD 🏆💎 I’m 37 & I learned a lot from listening to Mr. Wilson ALWAYS take care of your business & study do your research! 🙏🏾
@@dins5066 But now that Redd is gone he claims it was all 50/50, His ego is clouding his memory, If he is a man of God he should find something kind to say about Mr.Foxx
That's because the show painted him in a different light .....he even said that's why he turned down television shows because he didn't want to be remembered as the star on that specific show
I love this interview! And I especially love the fact that he is full of vim and vigor. Nobody can run anything past him. He so intelligent. God bless this man. 77 years-old and still has all his faculties!
Who raised tht dude?? He came in and interviewed a sitcom Great… without researching, who does tht! Dick Gregory took them interviewers to task with their incompetence, he should’ve. A more informed interviewer would’ve gotten more wisdom, from an informed mind. Atleast We got 60% of the lesson, gems, and knowledge. Thank Mr. D
I love Sanford and Son, still today my favorite show. I’m 53, my 9 year old son laughs so hard with me, and my 15 year old daughter know all the episodes. This is generational greatness. Thanks for the interview! Demond is a real OG❤️
@@richardlawson6787😂 yes. Like when he said Ester looked like the part of the Polaroid that you tear off😅 You gotta be old to know that he was talking about the black carbon sheet!!
Demond Wilson dropped a lot of knowledge. The agenda was in place and a foot already. Norman Lear and others made sure that they perpetuated the patriarchal destruction of the family structure with every show they created. Desmond Wilson saw it and avoided the land mines. Excellent interview. If they do their homework, they may be able to get another interview from him. He has so much to say and this was just a drop in the bucket. I really would love to see and hear more about him and his life experiences.
Thank you Mr. Wilson for handling this interview so well. The interviewer kept trying to cross him up on unnecessary mess and Mr. Wilson corrected him every time. I look forward to more interviews from Mr. Wilson.
@davidholland9505, Not really, when he claimed he was as big of a star as redd and it was 50/50 when we all were there, Redd was the star, and Demond was swinging off his shirt tails.
Though I appreciate the interview, oops I mean the reprimand,that's not no grandfather i'd want to have Mr. Wilson was rude and he did not have to belittle the young man. Should he have been more prepared, yes but he was excited to meet him and was just trying to get some questions answered. All that extra was just rude. I liked hearing about the different experiences and I have much respect for any veteran, I just don't like how he speaks to people. I'm surprised being a man of God.
@@charlestine6786 Yes, he wasn't the most polite person and that's only because Demond felt disrespected that the interviewer wasn't prepared, but aside from that Demond is very intelligent with a wealth of knowledge and is someone you can definitely learn from.
This was a very insightful interview. Thank you Mr. Demond Wilson for your time here to educate us that are ready and willing to listen and learn. Best words of wisdom EVER!
I knew Demond was in the ministry bc he visited my old church. He’s very direct. I’m glad the interviewer didn’t take offense and took the constructive criticism with ease. A good learning experience. The last part of the interview was powerful.
Incredible interview. Demond Wilson is an actual OG (metaphorically, never an actual criminal ) He's the kind of man we should all aspire to be like. Take no bs,take care of business,trust in the Lord.
The things he spoke on made me wonder about many things going on during this time for example, when he spoke about being drafted to go fight in the war and the whole purpose behind it with government trying to kill certain people off thus overpopulation, also that someone runs and controls the president and presidents are appointed by the powers that be not votes/ voters, which I always felt anyway but with that conformation I wondered who orchestrated this Migrant Invasion? And what is the true reason for it?, dumping them mainly in black communities, Is it a elaborate deliberate plan to secure a larger new voter base to altogether replace the black vote, Or to war with black people by foreigners being at odds with the residents and clash in a power conflict/ struggle, Or kill and victimize in a show of survival as well as a attempt to force black people out of those communities, to anialate and decress the black population overall, Or to bring into play the Cloward-Piven Strategy and destroy the economy for a complete take over leading up to the new world order doing away with a two party system for a one government rule, Or could it be a combination of all the above which is all possible but time will tell but as for now the fact that they opened that border and allowed all types of undocumented people from everywhere into the US and dumped them in those communities and continue with each and every passing day and offering no explanation and ignoring the concerns of the residents with no regard or concerns for their safety or otherwise speaks volume and says there is foul play in the mix. People just don't know what it is yet but this much we do know, considering how it has been all played out we can assume the ending won't be that much better, I also wonder since it's a power that be ran government could this whole fiasco be a well orchestrated scheme between the democrats and Republicans where as the democrats does something that makes no logical sense or explanation that causes its constituents to turn on them and by doing so allowing the Republicans to win who then will dominate and control and put in to play the new world order, it may sound impossible but it's possible because I don't believe the powers that be are democrats but rather Republicans and lastly again, that whole border situation is a big question mark and at this point mystery because it makes absolutely no logical sense and no explanation is given or any action taken to correct it, regardless of what anyone says joe Biden isn't that old or crazy or any of the other democrats in that party certainly not to the degree to do something like that knowing the backlash it would cause with their constituents and offer no explanation, something is going on here behind the scenes and some people have a definite agenda behind all this and people will have to really think about this and decide what to do while they're waiting for the other shoe to drop.
@@michaelsinclair3321 Mirgration is natural. I do t beleive the influx of people has actually changes that much it is a matter of who does the math and accounting. The real war is Class Warfare and the war for one's mind. Propaganda drives so many peoples beliefs. The US government has written more promises than it can't keep it is just an illusion at this point and the vapor hiding that fact is soon to fade. Just look at the current elections. Pathetic Oringe Jeezus or Hair sniffing crazy old Joe ? These are representatives? Empire Collapse is here. People get ready there's a train ah coming and you don't need no tickets. This mess isnot going to be fixed by a lesser evil, it is all evil and the lord drive the money changers out of the temple before and it can not come too soon for him to do it again. Go in PEACE y'all ❤
Jon Aba, thanks for hanging in there and allowing Mr Wilson to share some of his experiences with us.This was a very insightful dialogue. Much appreciation to Mr Wilson.
@@Doritheexploriand you would watch the very show you are trying to build, be gone due to your sensitivity. Show business is exactly that and if you can't deal with actors egos cause yours is to fragile then set up an only fans page
I unfortunately missed a chance to meet Demond a few years back. I'm from southwestern PA but at the time was living in northeastern Ohio not far from Cleveland, one day while surfing around on UA-cam I found out that the pickup truck from the show is at a place not far from where I was living, a car dealership that deals in high end muscle cars like you see for sale on Barrett-Jackson bought it and has it on display on their showroom floor, I was only weeks from moving back to PA after having lived up there for 11 years and definitely wanted to go see the truck while I was still in the area, so I got a hold of a friend of mine that like me was born in the 60's and grew up in the 70's who I knew would wanna go see it with me and we made plans to go see it a week later. On the morning we were going to go I was getting ready to leave my place and go pick him up and what did I see on my news feed? Nathaniel Taylor, the actor who played Lamont's shifty buddy Rollo had passed away the night before, I couldn't believe it, so when I picked my buddy up I told him about that and of course he had the same reaction I did, you know, what a bummer, anyways we head to the place and the two guy's who owned it were nice as could be, they let us both sit in it and took our pictures with our phones and I noticed when I was in it that the dash and visors were signed by surviving cast members including Nathaniel Taylor and Demond Wilson, when I ask the one owner about that he told me that they have cast reunions there, he also mentioned what we knew about Nathaniel Taylor passing away the night before and mentioned that they had another cast reunion coming up in just two weeks that every surviving cast member was scheduled to come to and that in light of what happened the night before he'd already talked with all the other cast members and it was decided that they were going to dedicate that reunion to him and do something to raise money in his name for his favorite cause, the guy invited me to come to it and told me I'd get back stage pass kind of treatment and that he'd introduce me to everyone including Demond but unfortunately that was the weekend I was already scheduled to move and couldn't change anything about it. But hey, I got to get my picture taken sitting in the actual Sanford and Son pickup truck and let me tell you that was the thrill of my life, I show that picture off to people all the time, if anyone's interested it's at a place called Blueline Classics in North Royalton OH, and believe it or not it's in the exact condition it was in when the show was filmed, and they even sell cool t-shirts that have the logo from the driver's door of the truck on from of them, you can check it out on their website at Bluelineclassics.com. I sure would have liked to have met Demond, aside from being someone so iconic in my life he's also an Army veteran as I am, oh well, maybe next time around in life I'll get to meet him.
I’m so happy that Demond never fell for the okie doke and is still here to share his wisdom. He is so sharp and articulate. We need to celebrate this man. God bless you DEMOND. I thank God for you.
Wow, this man is so real, and i appreciate that he is so truthful about the "Hollywood" facade. Amen brother, thank you for boldness in sharing the Gospel
I’m 68 years old. Remember how horribly Vietnam veterans were treated. I went to college with them. It broke my heart knowing them and hearing the horror they went through in Nam. Mr. Wilson is so right about the feminist movement! Never was one, never wanted to be one. The movement is evil. It took away women’s femininity, not gave them rights. Took away men’s dignity, emasculated men. Still does. I appreciate a strong masculine man. I respect men. I let my husband be a man. He respects me as a woman. Feminism Broke up the family home. Think about it. There I finally said it! LOL. Now I feel better.
I came in to make a similar comment...as a extra myself , and after working on a few sets for CBS, Fox, Paramount, Amazon, American horror story 😬,etc...not boasting nothing to boast about, I'm just not lying. .I was able to see celebrities ,of course and almost hang around a few. 🤣 Even a few who were child stars before I was born 😂. I made friends with one as we signed up for the same jobs 🤭. I had seen most of his movies when I was a child and he was very similar to his characters, as a child "star" still fiesty, tell it like it is and all that. Many of the ones I met, Are just like their character or something you'd heard about them... I'm not going to name any names... . Just goes to shows that they are people just like we are.
Omg this interview was THE BEST, THE MOST EDUCATIONAL, THE MOST SOLID, and INTELLECTUAL interview that I’ve watched on UA-cam in a LONG time. Demond is very intelligent but also very manly and firm. He deserves the utmost respect as a sojourner (as he called himself). They don’t make men like this anymore. I learned a lot in this interview and would love to watch him speak and educate us more. He dropped solid rare gems. No one has spoken like this since my great grandfather. RESPECT ALL DAY! 🙏🏽🙌🏽💯
I enjoyed Mr Wilson's interview...he speaks with passion, intelligence and keeps it real. He's not a "go along to get along" type of guy. Very refreshing. A lot of younger people can learn from the wisdom and experience of the older generation.. Kudos
I’ve never heard Mr. Wilson in anything outside of All in the family and Sanford and Son. I am glad to still have this brother around to tell his story. Fantastic interview.
@@ronmexico1392 well that’s what I meant lol. Mr Wilson schooling him actually made the interview worth it to me. I’d rather hear the person tell their story over the person who didn’t do research trying to ask questions based on stuff they looked up on Google or Wikipedia
How was this a good interview when the interviewer kept interrupting him, the interviewer questions were straight 🗑️, the interviewer admitted to not knowing info that he could’ve looked up had he done his research and properly prepared for the interview. This was the worse interview I have ever seen considering who the interviewee is…… critical thinking is important
Absolutely one of the realest that has ever lived. A classic interview. One of the greatest. After seeing many. One of the few. Peace and Blessings. May he live long
Not on both parties! Whoever this person is that interviewed Mr. Wilson is a clown 🤡! Im a student of comedy! This is the second time I have been on this channel and it will probably be my last! If you had a clue, you might have got the interview that Sharpe got with Mr. Katt Williams. It’s breaking the internet right now in case you’re under a rock! He would have chewed you up and spit you out, but you would have gotten the only thing you want. Which is clicks and cash!
Sanford and son was the best sitcom ever!! So funny and ahead of its time!! Wish there were shows like this now!! But at least we have formats to enjoy them forever!!
Great one-sided interview. Demond breaking down his experiences from his perspective was pure education. Unfortunately, the interviewer didn't even seem to read dude's Wikipedia entry before he scheduled this interview & dropped the ball on numerous occasions. I learned long ago that the first part of conducting a good interview was to *listen* to what the other person was saying. Demond kept having to say "I just told you that" or "didn't you hear what I just said?". I'm positive that if he felt it was a two-sided conversation, that it would not have gone the way it did in terms of him being defensive. Either way, a lot could be gained from his insight in the business, so I am thankful you conducted this interview.
Exactly! Thank you for saying it. In the context of the conversation, the follow-up questions were nonsensical. I kept yelling "drop the script & just converse with this man".
Well I definitely see things the same way that you do I was going to say something along those lines but after reading your comments there's no reason to because you spoke the truth and you spoke it well and so I thank you for that.
This is and most certainly by far the very best interview I have ever seen on a UA-cam platform. Our beloved brother literally took that young man's mind as does a father would his own child and elevated him upward into a new level of reality he has never known to even exist in show business. Moreover he spoke from a very high level of wisdom with independence and leadership ability that wasn't subject to none of the wicked and twisted things most mega stars must do as a means to aquire fame.
Kudos! And my non english speaking Haitian Maman who was calling it out every day it played " meiline?! senfird en son a 7" or (8), I was little...lol Bless our folks.
Being Born in the Year of 89..this interview is pure gems..my dad got me on Sanford&Son. THIS IS PURE KNOWLEDGE..ALMOST 50 YEARS IN THE MAKING. GOD BLESS "LAMONT" FOR DOING THIS. EVERYTHING HE'S SAYING IS 💯. THE INTERVIEWER WAS NOT PREPARED AT ALL!
Reminds me of the old school teacher from my era. Teachers didn’t play and didn’t fear the students! But because of the authority they demanded, you respected and feared them as leaders in those classrooms! He dropped some truthful nuggets about politics and our world!
I met Mr. Wilson here in North Carolina at a service where he preached back in 1994 or 95, and he was very approachable and kind. Very interesting interview, I could listen to him all day he is so articulate and intelligent. God bless you and may you continue bringing the word of God. We all need it!
I loved this interview!!! It was good to hear Demond Wilson’s voice of reason in this time!! I always admired him, he seemed to always have been straightforward!!!
I didn't know this brother had this much knowledge and been missing from the scene because he went full time ministry to preach the words of god. The Hollywood business is wicked and he had to get out to saved his life. Thanks for speaking Demond Wilson keep on living and spreading knowledge to the young generation✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾❤❤❤❤
Demond Wilson is a very intelligent, talented, and articulate man. He will tell you what you need to hear rather than what you want to hear which is why he made very few friends in the entertainment industry. Like his friend Cleavon Little (another extremely talented actor), Demond was never given the chance to display his full talents and we're the poorer for it.
My dad fought in VietNam and he described his homecoming, it was the exactly as Mr. Wilson described. My dad never looked at this country the same after that. His advice to us was..just do the best you can in this life and make sure you Think of yourself first.
Salute, My pops tol me not to go to the service (Korean War)- My Aunts husband tol me to go to the Air Force n play bball. - I said no, my pops tol me not to go.
Oh noo I am sorry your Father went through this horrible ordeal. I don't care what anyone says the Vietnam War should have NEVER happened, and Our USA Men should have NEVER been drafted. in that dreaded war.UGH
Sanford and Son will go down as one of the GREATEST shows of all times. An absolute legendary classic. Thank you Demond and Redd for an absolute MASTERPIECE, that is STILL funny TODAY. No matter how many times I watch each episode, it’s as if I’m seeing it for the first time….funny as H$LL 😂😂😂
Yep, I was born in the 60's and raised in the 70's, and just a couple years back I got the thrill of my life getting my picture taken sitting in the actual Sanford and Son pickup truck, it's in the exact condition it was in when the show was filmed and the dash and visors are signed by all the surviving cast members including Demond and Nathaniel Taylor, the actor who played Lamont's shifty buddy Rollo and who coincidentally died the night before me and my buddy went to see the truck. The place that has it deals in high end collector cars like you see on Barrett-Jackson, they bought it as a conversation piece and because like me they're the same age and grew up watching Sanford and Son in the 70's and when they found out the previous owner had put it up for sale couldn't resist getting it. They have cast reunions at the place and were scheduled to have another one just two weeks later, the one owner invited me to come and told me he'd introduce me to Demond and everyone else which would have been an even bigger thrill but unfortunately after living in northeast Ohio for 11 years that was the weekend I was scheduled to move back to southwestern Pa where I'm originally from and just couldn't cancel all the arrangements I'd made, yea it sure would have been something getting my picture taken again in the truck with him in it to, wow what a missed opportunity. If anyone's interested the trucks at a place in the Cleveland area called Blueline Classics in North Royalton OH, you can check it out on their website Bluelineclassics.com, they even sell real cool t-shirts that have the iconic Sanford and Son logo from the driver's side door of the truck on the front of them. Yep, getting my picture taken sitting in that truck was the thrill of my life, and it's a picture I'm always shamelessly showing off to people.
@@dukecraig2402 Great story. Appreciate you sharing this. I know this was a very special and memorable experience. You’ve done what millions would want to do if they got the opportunity. Cool! Now, I’m gonna order one of those t-shirts from the website you shared. Thanks!!
Friday nights 😢on NBC will never be the same in New York. Sanford and Son and Chico and the Man afterwards. A light sleep and NBC Saturday morning line up with cereal. Thank goodness for reruns.
Also, GREAT JOB by the interviewer. You have discernment & wisdom in being able to identify the greatness of someone like Demond Wilson. And you so respectful, humble, and ask great follow-up questions.
It is a great pleasure to see Demond again and he is looking very healthy and well. This interview could have been smoother but it was very interesting. Thank you young man you did a good job.
@@rodscott7360 Agreed. At one point he told the interviewer “brother don’t look at your notes.” He was saying YOU asked the question son; LISTEN to the answer.
Stop the cap. Smh The interviewer was terrible, giving clickbait questions, not paying attention to what Demond Wilson was expressing and NOT doing research on the Brotha. Very disrespectful. Smh
Mr. Wilson looks amazing to be 77 years young! Sanford and Son was one of my favorite shows when growing up as a child. Kudos to him for still being articulate, straight to the point, and sharing great details of his life experiences. Truly enjoyed this discussion!💗
"It's a poor rat that only has one hole". My grandmother used to say this all the time. God bless Mr.Wilson for telling his story. Lots of gems here. Rest in peace, Mr.Foxx.
No, he did not handle it well. He underestimated Demond. He has old school education- preparation, preparation, preparation!!! I hope he learned something!!!

He disrespected the man on so many levels smh
If Demond Wilson only knew how respected he is by us . 🙏
I remember being a child and teenager watching him. I had the biggest crush on him. He, Redd, and Lawanda Page are still my favorites. I'm still watching Sanford and Son now( in my 50's). Mr. Wilson is just as handsome now as he was back then. Redd was very seasoned. He and LaWanda were standup comedians before the show was even started. People don't want to hear it but he's right. It's like taking care of a family member who has messed up their money. Why in the world would you want to give them some of yours to mess it up too. They aren't able to help you. They'll move on to the next fool that will give them some. It doesn't make sense. It's unfortunate but true. Valdosta, don't live too far from there. He's true about that too. My dad died at home, just seen him an hour before. He wasn't being cruel it's going to happen no matter where you are. You just have sympathy and empathy. I'm a nurse. It happens on the toilet. I'm sure people didn't want it to happen that way but it does. This interviewer was Not Ready 😮😢. Didn't mean to write a book but you are so right. He still mean a lot to us.😘. A part of Americana. Not just Blacks but All!. We all at some time had these family situations. No matter who you are.
Desmond Wilson❤🙌🏽👏🏾
The man said he knew he was respected in the interview. Watch the interview before making typical dramatic comments
Desmond was good on the show
Very knowledgeable I enjoy Demond Wilson , I would like more from him.
Homeboy picked the wrong interview to not “do his homework “ I still thoroughly enjoyed this. This is pure gold and for the ages 😂😅
Hell yeah. I can hear the irritation of Mr. Wilson’s tone which had me on pins & needles. I thought he was going to bail in mid-sentence.
Exactly
I agree. It’s truly disappointing and maybe disrespectful to not know much of anything about the man you’re interviewing.
I agree. He was not prepared for this interview. I hope that in the future, he does his research before inviting people to his show.
You ain't lying. I know Demond wasn't the one play with from another interview he did when he was asked about Norman Lear.
It’s so refreshing to listen to a real, straight up man like Mr. Wilson. Good for him for speaking the truth .
Agreed
Amen , We live in a world that the truth just doesn't matter any more ! I don't know if that is the precursor of corruption or if it is just the New technology, so to speak of corruption ! The truth does matter always as and will. It makes one feel powerless seeing so many wealthy talented people turn out to be such sale outs , or selling there souls to the Devil ! But oh how sweet it is , oh how inspiring it is to see and hear Mr , Sir Demond Wilson speak the truth. Wow ! What a true warrior and conquer of life! He did it his way ! Real Courage ! A Real Artist , A Real Man every boy should want to be , a Real Man every Man should want to be! What a great interview. I will be ordering ever book that Mr. Sir Demond Wilson wrote!
Thank you Sir.
Stay loyal to the truth no matter how ugly and evil it is no matter the Burden of the truth ! The Truth is the only damn thing permanent in life and in death !

I agree what a great person
To see Demond healthy and doing well is such a blessing. It warms my heart to see him and hear him talk. Thank you for getting in UA-cam for the interview.
"I got a suit your age!" ...said it all. Demond needs his own podcast.
Exactly. This was crucial
Yeah yeah you're right I can see the Dmonth being the new Kevin samuals
Let's not get carried away. Nowadays everyone has a podcast. Don't need anymore
Yes!!!!! Someone who can preach and teach!!!

Salute to a legend that killed it in the game and who didn't allow the game to kill him 💪🏾
Well said.
This is a prime example of not judging a book by its cover. I never knew Demond was this deep after all these years!
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
AMEN! man is that a TRUTH BOMB Bosstommy!
well said...
Dude wasn't ready for this. Demond is dropping deep historical information.
He wasn’t ready at all.
Interviewer was lost mentally
Why u think Denzel don't play that game but demond do got a point in Hollywood black Hollywood u don't leave clean lies look what happened to Michael Prince reason to smart for the biz when u know they'll destroyed u or death
Brother is dropping truth bombs. Wow.
Yes, he could not keep up with Demond at all! Everything Demond was saying was going over his head! And Demond was shaking his head!
His imitation of Redd Foxx is perfection!
We need some more people like Mr. Demond Wilson in the world
There are millions of us! We're called REAL. Wokism is trying to cancel us. Fat chance!
It’s plenty. You just rather be entertained than be amongst the wise
That's for sure ❤
Tough, articulate, a decorated vet, respected, polite and well spoken. Just what you need in a man.
Greatly informative We need more of this Now. Hopes he come Out with an platform, thou he speaks of His Higher Calling 🙏🏽
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN ❤❤❤❤
I know that's right! Lamont is a real man! It was so good to see this and was truly eye-opening for real!
I'm glad y'all like these characteristics. But that means y'all have to be the soft uplifting energy that up lifts Men up as well. Dudes from his age on up till about 2000 Are USED to hearing info like this.. spoken in the way he articulates it. He gave NO bs whatsoever. But this is why Men want soft women. At this level that Mr demond is at or trying to be.. we just want our women to realize, we want to lead the fam just like this Man is doing. Just respect us and be there for us.
@@theruddyone6443 Do "soft" people even really exist? Why do people keep trying to make other people conform to their own ideals of what they should be? Let men be who they are and let women be who they are, and it will all work out.
THIS is how the elders speak! Loved it.
It's so damn refreshing 😍
Much love and big respect !❤
Exactly!!
Reminded me of The late Dick Gregory💡 😂🤞🏼🎯✊🏾
Same here indeed, like the people who raised Me.
It's painful to watch interviews where the host doesn't research or pay attention to their intellectual guests. Just to listen to Demond was a joy!❤❤❤
He's definitely a poor interviewer!. You have no knowledge of the guest that you've invited onto 'YOUR' show!?. No notes ,nothing!. WOW!...😮 How to say I'm only doing this interview for likes & views without saying it.
@@SunRidahhe did have notes and he said stop looking at the notes and he said he's asking to set the record straight.😂😂😂😂 dude was just annoyed because he was asking the questions and he said he did not want to look like the bad guy and thats not what he was trying to do. Could have been better, but he was a little off.
Agreed 👍
You’re making me look like the villain my brother.
@fatcatpeople Uh Huh, all the signs of a poor interviewer, why spend all the time to come up with notes, only to not use them and it showed. Why waste the time if that was the case?. Even you agreed that it the interview was a little off. 🤷♂️
I.J.S
Demond Wilson needs to be heard more than a few UA-cam or podcast programs. This guy speaks the the truth and his wisdom needs to be shared with the masses.
True but Hollywood probably scared what he might expose
All The Things He has done through Ministry alone.
Absolutely i said the same thing.
Demond does a great imitation of Red’s voice too. Love this man.
Too late; people’s greed and desire to be seen is in place.
Demond is a treasure! I love his words! What a great eloquent speaker. I was a child of the 70's, and all of us loved Sanford and Son.
Absolutely genius man. I love everything Demond Wilson states in this interview. He is a man. He is a US Veteran and I hope he is Service Connected 100% from his service to the United States. He has the same wife from 1974. Please interview him again to help teach Black men how to be men. He is a true Black Man. Thank you for interviewing him. Brilliant wisdom!
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Yessssss
Yeah.... he was on some wierd stuff for a hot second 😂 "bend ova billys" 😂
When the elders speak, I listen. Many blessings to him.
Blessings to you, for being respectful of history and of the players. The Pork Pie Hat reference ; Charles Mingus wrote a classic called “ Goodbye Pork Pie Hat “. A homage to the passing of the old days of Jazz . D Wilson is the best of the best of the 60-70s generation.
Demond Wilson for sure ain’t no Big Dummy!!! Loved hearing his perspective. Thanks for this interview
Right, good one ......lol
What a Lesson for LIFE ❤!!My Love and Prayers To You. Thank You for sharing this 🙏
"Big Dummy" What Redd called Lamont on Sanford & Son. LOL
He was always an intellectual…..
Lol, loved that big dummy part.
Man it's so refreshing to listen to an intellectual conversation for a change
Call it: Idiot meets intelligence
absolutely 💯 on that he definitely let me know I wasn't crazy on my theories 🎉salute to a king 🙌
Same here.

Thank you for interviewing Demond twice...this man is astonishingly intelligent.
The world really needed this interview. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Brother Demond Wilson 🙏🏽
This man has touched my life in a profound manner.

Yessss
Sad that this interview is not in the millions of views because it should be. Demond is extremely insightful and very candid. I hope the interviewer understands the gift he just gave you. I’m sharing this with as many people as I can!
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
Exactly!!!
I really hope that you share this to as many people as you can! The bridge between the youth and are elders, it's very week unfortunately. If that bridge strengthens one day, the knowledge and bond of unity with everyone would blossom!
Wrong platform....no disrespect
You no the truth will never be acknowledged...... Now if he was speaking nonsense then he will reach the million views
LISTEN TO HIM!!!!!!! hear the true knowledge. Thank you for allowing Mr. Wilson to share the truth!

Demond Wilson is a legend. That show would not have been so good without him. Glad he is alive and well.
I remember being an eight year old when the show came on ..we would never miss an episode and we literally held each other up we laughed so hard!!
Foxx was the star, Demond was just enjoying the ride while it lasted
@@dins5066 But now that Redd is gone he claims it was all 50/50,
His ego is clouding his memory, If he is a man of God he should find something kind to say about Mr.Foxx
both of them were the stars!
it was 50/50! what are you talking about! don't you remember when redd Foxx was holding out and Demond carried the show!
He's an old skool NYer❤. Short, but sweet and no time for slacking or lacking👍.
@@noconsentgiven SPEAK IT !!!
I loved Sanford and Son. I never realized Mr. Wilson was so mindful and educated. Everything he said was spot on.
I didn't realize Grady Wilson was a real name.
That's because the show painted him in a different light .....he even said that's why he turned down television shows because he didn't want to be remembered as the star on that specific show
"Life with anyone is bittersweet. Its not all bitter and its not all sweet."
~Demond Wilson
Very profound.
I like Mr. Wilson,straightforward and no nonsense 💯💪🏾
Old school at its best
I love this interview! And I especially love the fact that he is full of vim and vigor. Nobody can run anything past him. He so intelligent. God bless this man. 77 years-old and still has all his faculties!
...and he's strapped up. lol.
Damond don't play. ha ha
He basically said,"Yah big dummy!" In a nice way to the interviewer 😆
Yeah, it was rude.
LMAOOOOOOO!!!!!😂😂🎉😂❤❤😂😂😂🎉❤!!!!!
@@gregoryl.levitre9759I think so, too.😬
Em, em, em…. 💭
Who raised tht dude?? He came in and interviewed a sitcom Great… without researching, who does tht! Dick Gregory took them interviewers to task with their incompetence, he should’ve. A more informed interviewer would’ve gotten more wisdom, from an informed mind. Atleast We got 60% of the lesson, gems, and knowledge. Thank Mr. D
I love listening to the elders, so much wisdom
I love Sanford and Son, still today my favorite show. I’m 53, my 9 year old son laughs so hard with me, and my 15 year old daughter know all the episodes. This is generational greatness. Thanks for the interview! Demond is a real OG❤️
I lived for Fred's confrontations with aunt ester ..classic
I'm 53 also, and I still watch it!
@@richardlawson6787😂 yes. Like when he said Ester looked like the part of the Polaroid that you tear off😅 You gotta be old to know that he was talking about the black carbon sheet!!
Great interview..need a part two..three 😊
@@feliciaallen6228 SAME HERE! I watched them religiously after church service (bc we were in church almost every day of the week lol).
I so love Demond Wilson’s transparency and willingness to educate the next generation on the truth.
Demond Wilson dropped a lot of knowledge. The agenda was in place and a foot already. Norman Lear and others made sure that they perpetuated the patriarchal destruction of the family structure with every show they created. Desmond Wilson saw it and avoided the land mines. Excellent interview. If they do their homework, they may be able to get another interview from him. He has so much to say and this was just a drop in the bucket. I really would love to see and hear more about him and his life experiences.
Well said 💯 However, the interviewer needs to polish up his skills and do his homework on people before he brings them on.
@TJ_911
What are you talking about?
The interviewer did a great job!!
The Five Percenters taught this in the 60'a...
@@TJ_911 Agree. The interviewer was unprepared.
Very interesting interview, He 's 77 dropping jewels.
Thank you Mr. Wilson for handling this interview so well. The interviewer kept trying to cross him up on unnecessary mess and Mr. Wilson corrected him every time. I look forward to more interviews from Mr. Wilson.
Absolutely no BS legend. Love this interview. Demond is straight OG 💪
@davidholland9505, Not really, when he claimed he was as big of a star as redd and it was 50/50 when we all were there, Redd was the star, and Demond was swinging off his shirt tails.
77 years old he aged fine like wine 🍷 very fine wine. Demond is very wise and on point and frank.
Girl!! Baby I love a Silver Fox. I don't know if it's cause I'm in my 40s or what but GOOD GOD. He fine as fuck.
Demond is definitely a very fine wine
Y'all keep on loving these silver fox as y'all ladies say y'all Gon end up with them dy1ng on top of y'all like the color purple 😂😂😂
@@Keepthefaith89-p2r LOL! Sure you're right.

Demond Wilson seems like that cool Grandfather that everyone enjoys talking to. Great interview!
Though I appreciate the interview, oops I mean the reprimand,that's not no grandfather i'd want to have Mr. Wilson was rude and he did not have to belittle the young man. Should he have been more prepared, yes but he was excited to meet him and was just trying to get some questions answered. All that extra was just rude. I liked hearing about the different experiences and I have much respect for any veteran, I just don't like how he speaks to people. I'm surprised being a man of God.
@@charlestine6786 Yes, he wasn't the most polite person and that's only because Demond felt disrespected that the interviewer wasn't prepared, but aside from that Demond is very intelligent with a wealth of knowledge and is someone you can definitely learn from.
And I never miss a chance to see a Stanford and Son re-run, it’s still funny today and warms my heart.
Nothing but Gems in that interview !!! Salute to Lamont Sanford ! A real man of God !
In the TOP 10 interviews I have EVER seen ! Respect ALL the rare honesty from my man Demond Wilson ! 👍🏾
Demond got that Dick Gregory energy and I love it 😂😂😂
He does,( Dick Gregory) " I seen the check nigga"! 😂😂
Yes he does have that Baba Dick Gregory energy
Old school wisdom and vibe, 💪👍🙏
Sho u right
I just said the same thing 😂
This was a very insightful interview. Thank you Mr. Demond Wilson for your time here to educate us that are ready and willing to listen and learn. Best words of wisdom EVER!
I have always admired Demond Wilson and this interview makes me admire him even more. Thank you for your service sir.
Young man. Do your homework
I knew Demond was in the ministry bc he visited my old church. He’s very direct. I’m glad the interviewer didn’t take offense and took the constructive criticism with ease. A good learning experience. The last part of the interview was powerful.
Incredible interview. Demond Wilson is an actual OG (metaphorically, never an actual criminal ) He's the kind of man we should all aspire to be like. Take no bs,take care of business,trust in the Lord.
Yes, Trust in the Lord.
Amen !
The things he spoke on made me wonder about many things going on during this time for example, when he spoke about being drafted to go fight in the war and the whole purpose behind it with government trying to kill certain people off thus overpopulation, also that someone runs and controls the president and presidents are appointed by the powers that be not votes/ voters, which I always felt anyway but with that conformation I wondered who orchestrated this Migrant Invasion? And what is the true reason for it?, dumping them mainly in black communities, Is it a elaborate deliberate plan to secure a larger new voter base to altogether replace the black vote, Or to war with black people by foreigners being at odds with the residents and clash in a power conflict/ struggle, Or kill and victimize in a show of survival as well as a attempt to force black people out of those communities, to anialate and decress the black population overall, Or to bring into play the Cloward-Piven Strategy and destroy the economy for a complete take over leading up to the new world order doing away with a two party system for a one government rule, Or could it be a combination of all the above which is all possible but time will tell but as for now the fact that they opened that border and allowed all types of undocumented people from everywhere into the US and dumped them in those communities and continue with each and every passing day and offering no explanation and ignoring the concerns of the residents with no regard or concerns for their safety or otherwise speaks volume and says there is foul play in the mix. People just don't know what it is yet but this much we do know, considering how it has been all played out we can assume the ending won't be that much better, I also wonder since it's a power that be ran government could this whole fiasco be a well orchestrated scheme between the democrats and Republicans where as the democrats does something that makes no logical sense or explanation that causes its constituents to turn on them and by doing so allowing the Republicans to win who then will dominate and control and put in to play the new world order, it may sound impossible but it's possible because I don't believe the powers that be are democrats but rather Republicans and lastly again, that whole border situation is a big question mark and at this point mystery because it makes absolutely no logical sense and no explanation is given or any action taken to correct it, regardless of what anyone says joe Biden isn't that old or crazy or any of the other democrats in that party certainly not to the degree to do something like that knowing the backlash it would cause with their constituents and offer no explanation, something is going on here behind the scenes and some people have a definite agenda behind all this and people will have to really think about this and decide what to do while they're waiting for the other shoe to drop.
@@michaelsinclair3321 Mirgration is natural. I do t beleive the influx of people has actually changes that much it is a matter of who does the math and accounting. The real war is Class Warfare and the war for one's mind. Propaganda drives so many peoples beliefs. The US government has written more promises than it can't keep it is just an illusion at this point and the vapor hiding that fact is soon to fade. Just look at the current elections. Pathetic Oringe Jeezus or Hair sniffing crazy old Joe ? These are representatives? Empire Collapse is here. People get ready there's a train ah coming and you don't need no tickets. This mess isnot going to be fixed by a lesser evil, it is all evil and the lord drive the money changers out of the temple before and it can not come too soon for him to do it again. Go in PEACE y'all ❤
The interviewer was kinda dense. He definitely should've did his homework before Demond came on because he made him look silly
Katt went viral and this should go super viral
This is one of the best interviews of a legend telling his side of the story. Thanks Comedy Hype!
This is a great interview. Demond Wilson gave it to us straight with no chaser , just how it should be .
That Redd Foxx impression was everything! Great interview man
Young-minded, VERY ill-prepared Interviewer...BUT...Fantastic Wisdom, Guidance and Insight graciously provided by Demond. Absolutely Eye-Opening!
Jon Aba, thanks for hanging in there and allowing Mr Wilson to share some of his experiences with us.This was a very insightful dialogue. Much appreciation to Mr Wilson.
I definitely would have cut this short. 😂
@@Doritheexploriand you would watch the very show you are trying to build, be gone due to your sensitivity. Show business is exactly that and if you can't deal with actors egos cause yours is to fragile then set up an only fans page
I unfortunately missed a chance to meet Demond a few years back.
I'm from southwestern PA but at the time was living in northeastern Ohio not far from Cleveland, one day while surfing around on UA-cam I found out that the pickup truck from the show is at a place not far from where I was living, a car dealership that deals in high end muscle cars like you see for sale on Barrett-Jackson bought it and has it on display on their showroom floor, I was only weeks from moving back to PA after having lived up there for 11 years and definitely wanted to go see the truck while I was still in the area, so I got a hold of a friend of mine that like me was born in the 60's and grew up in the 70's who I knew would wanna go see it with me and we made plans to go see it a week later.
On the morning we were going to go I was getting ready to leave my place and go pick him up and what did I see on my news feed? Nathaniel Taylor, the actor who played Lamont's shifty buddy Rollo had passed away the night before, I couldn't believe it, so when I picked my buddy up I told him about that and of course he had the same reaction I did, you know, what a bummer, anyways we head to the place and the two guy's who owned it were nice as could be, they let us both sit in it and took our pictures with our phones and I noticed when I was in it that the dash and visors were signed by surviving cast members including Nathaniel Taylor and Demond Wilson, when I ask the one owner about that he told me that they have cast reunions there, he also mentioned what we knew about Nathaniel Taylor passing away the night before and mentioned that they had another cast reunion coming up in just two weeks that every surviving cast member was scheduled to come to and that in light of what happened the night before he'd already talked with all the other cast members and it was decided that they were going to dedicate that reunion to him and do something to raise money in his name for his favorite cause, the guy invited me to come to it and told me I'd get back stage pass kind of treatment and that he'd introduce me to everyone including Demond but unfortunately that was the weekend I was already scheduled to move and couldn't change anything about it.
But hey, I got to get my picture taken sitting in the actual Sanford and Son pickup truck and let me tell you that was the thrill of my life, I show that picture off to people all the time, if anyone's interested it's at a place called Blueline Classics in North Royalton OH, and believe it or not it's in the exact condition it was in when the show was filmed, and they even sell cool t-shirts that have the logo from the driver's door of the truck on from of them, you can check it out on their website at Bluelineclassics.com.
I sure would have liked to have met Demond, aside from being someone so iconic in my life he's also an Army veteran as I am, oh well, maybe next time around in life I'll get to meet him.
@MissAsiaMedia may i ask Y , if you don't mind
Really great interview!
I’m so happy that Demond never fell for the okie doke and is still here to share his wisdom. He is so sharp and articulate. We need to celebrate this man. God bless you DEMOND. I thank God for you.
This kinda people they don't wanna hear
Wow, this man is so real, and i appreciate that he is so truthful about the "Hollywood" facade. Amen brother, thank you for boldness in sharing the Gospel
And he's teaching!
I’m 68 years old. Remember how horribly Vietnam veterans were treated. I went to college with them. It broke my heart knowing them and hearing the horror they went through in Nam.
Mr. Wilson is so right about the feminist movement! Never was one, never wanted to be one. The movement is evil. It took away women’s femininity, not gave them rights. Took away men’s dignity, emasculated men. Still does. I appreciate a strong masculine man. I respect men. I let my husband be a man. He respects me as a woman. Feminism Broke up the family home. Think about it. There I finally said it! LOL. Now I feel better.
Lamont sets the record straight!! The host is terrible! We want to hear from Lamont not you! Let the man finish his thoughts!
@@jbizzle1966 Agreed. So rude.
Birthed straight out of the womb of hell.
He made a great point about Kevin Samuels. I want to hear more from Desmond.
Fantastic interview, and Demond is no punk I love his swagger. He tells it like it is and it suppose to be told. And he aged like fine wine!
Watching this reinforces why he was the perfect choice to portray Lamont. He tells it like it is regardless of how popular it may be.
I came in to make a similar comment...as a extra myself , and after working on a few sets for CBS, Fox, Paramount, Amazon, American horror story 😬,etc...not boasting nothing to boast about, I'm just not lying.
.I was able to see celebrities ,of course and almost hang around a few. 🤣 Even a few who were child stars before I was born 😂. I made friends with one as we signed up for the same jobs 🤭. I had seen most of his movies when I was a child and he was very similar to his characters, as a child "star" still fiesty, tell it like it is and all that.
Many of the ones I met, Are just like their character or something you'd heard about them... I'm not going to name any names... . Just goes to shows that they are people just like we are.
Omg this interview was THE BEST, THE MOST EDUCATIONAL, THE MOST SOLID, and INTELLECTUAL interview that I’ve watched on UA-cam in a LONG time. Demond is very intelligent but also very manly and firm. He deserves the utmost respect as a sojourner (as he called himself). They don’t make men like this anymore. I learned a lot in this interview and would love to watch him speak and educate us more. He dropped solid rare gems. No one has spoken like this since my great grandfather. RESPECT ALL DAY! 🙏🏽🙌🏽💯
Thank you for your service, Mr. Wilson. 🇺🇸
Wow, so glad to hear this. It's important to showcase Demond Wilson to a wider audience.
I enjoyed Mr Wilson's interview...he speaks with passion, intelligence and keeps it real. He's not a "go along to get along" type of guy. Very refreshing. A lot of younger people can learn from the wisdom and experience of the older generation.. Kudos
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏
Demond is History! I grew up in the 1970’s.. Now in my Sixties..
Let Demond Speak his peace ✌🏾 ❤❤
I’ve never heard Mr. Wilson in anything outside of All in the family and Sanford and Son. I am glad to still have this brother around to tell his story. Fantastic interview.
He also was in a show called, Baby, I'm Back
Look up him when he did the remake of the odd couple.with Ron glass from Barney miller
And the show called baby I'm back
Fantastic interview? Fantastic interviewee, yes. Interviewer, no. Interview, nuh uh
@@ronmexico1392 well that’s what I meant lol. Mr Wilson schooling him actually made the interview worth it to me. I’d rather hear the person tell their story over the person who didn’t do research trying to ask questions based on stuff they looked up on Google or Wikipedia
Demond was a beast in his day! This old dude is spitting real facts! Bro. is deep!
Bro Wilson is dropping gems that's flying right over the tops of most people's heads.
I hope that's not true. I caught it all and I totally agree with him. Sadly though, you may be right.
Love this man. So glad to have heard this interview. The last 20 to 30 minutes was plain truth. God Bless Demond Wilson
This is the best interview that has real meaning thank you Mr. Demond Wilson
How was this a good interview when the interviewer kept interrupting him, the interviewer questions were straight 🗑️, the interviewer admitted to not knowing info that he could’ve looked up had he done his research and properly prepared for the interview. This was the worse interview I have ever seen considering who the interviewee is…… critical thinking is important
Maaaaannn ... this was a good interview. Much respect to Mr. Demond Wilson. 🙌🏾
He explained the Vietnam War in 2 minutes. More than anybody else did in 2 hours. Salute
Absolutely one of the realest that has ever lived. A classic interview. One of the greatest. After seeing many. One of the few. Peace and Blessings. May he live long
My brother you dropped the ball on this interview. Talk the man...he was giving you good information & you were looking for something else.
I agree. Because Mr. Desmond is of a pedigree unlike many people this brother has interviewed.
....and kept cutting him off. Dumb questions. Definitely wasn't prepared for this interview.
This was an excellent interview! He provided knowledge to these young ppl. We as black folks need more of this!! ✌🏽✊🏽😏
Great interview on both parties. Stay humble you did a great job interviewing Bro. Wilson ❤
They will listen to it.. but not HEAR it..
Not on both parties! Whoever this person is that interviewed Mr. Wilson is a clown 🤡! Im a student of comedy! This is the second time I have been on this channel and it will probably be my last! If you had a clue, you might have got the interview that Sharpe got with Mr. Katt Williams. It’s breaking the internet right now in case you’re under a rock! He would have chewed you up and spit you out, but you would have gotten the only thing you want. Which is clicks and cash!
The interviewer is a joke

Very very few Black actors I could sit and listen to all day... brother Wilson.. yes sah! Excellent information.
Man, this is some amazing history!! I’m glad he is still around to give his story🙏🏾
Sanford and son was the best sitcom ever!! So funny and ahead of its time!! Wish there were shows like this now!! But at least we have formats to enjoy them forever!!
Great one-sided interview. Demond breaking down his experiences from his perspective was pure education. Unfortunately, the interviewer didn't even seem to read dude's Wikipedia entry before he scheduled this interview & dropped the ball on numerous occasions. I learned long ago that the first part of conducting a good interview was to *listen* to what the other person was saying. Demond kept having to say "I just told you that" or "didn't you hear what I just said?". I'm positive that if he felt it was a two-sided conversation, that it would not have gone the way it did in terms of him being defensive. Either way, a lot could be gained from his insight in the business, so I am thankful you conducted this interview.
Exactly! Thank you for saying it. In the context of the conversation, the follow-up questions were nonsensical. I kept yelling "drop the script & just converse with this man".
I feel like he was trying to turn this into a Katt Williams interview and get the tea on some people. This generation...😑
Yessssssss…if it wasn’t for Demond I would have stop listening after 5 minutes.
Well I definitely see things the same way that you do I was going to say something along those lines but after reading your comments there's no reason to because you spoke the truth and you spoke it well and so I thank you for that.
@@KennethBraswell that part..
Great interview! I enjoyed the candor and brilliance and assuredness of Demond Wilson. He was unapologetically honest.
Yes!
This is and most certainly by far the very best interview I have ever seen on a UA-cam platform. Our beloved brother literally took that young man's mind as does a father would his own child and elevated him upward into a new level of reality he has never known to even exist in show business. Moreover he spoke from a very high level of wisdom with independence and leadership ability that wasn't subject to none of the wicked and twisted things most mega stars must do as a means to aquire fame.
I watched this show every day, and I was born in the 80s. I appreciate my dad for introducing me to Sanford & Son.😊❤

Being Born in the Year of 89..this interview is pure gems..my dad got me on Sanford&Son. THIS IS PURE KNOWLEDGE..ALMOST 50 YEARS IN THE MAKING. GOD BLESS "LAMONT" FOR DOING THIS. EVERYTHING HE'S SAYING IS 💯. THE INTERVIEWER WAS NOT PREPARED AT ALL!
83 baby here! Yessir that and Good Times was a staple in our home even then. 💯
Reminds me of the old school teacher from my era. Teachers didn’t play and didn’t fear the students! But because of the authority they demanded, you respected and feared them as leaders in those classrooms! He dropped some truthful nuggets about politics and our world!
Oh Yes!,The God's Honest Truth AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
Truth!!!
I met Mr. Wilson here in North Carolina at a service where he preached back in 1994 or 95, and he was very approachable and kind. Very interesting interview, I could listen to him all day he is so articulate and intelligent. God bless you and may you continue bringing the word of God. We all need it!
Yeah, he preached at a church in Maiden NC, my mom went to see him.
Hey was that in Greensboro? I was there!!!
I met him in Sanford, NC
I loved this interview!!! It was good to hear Demond Wilson’s voice of reason in this time!! I always admired him, he seemed to always have been straightforward!!!
I didn't know this brother had this much knowledge and been missing from the scene because he went full time ministry to preach the words of god. The Hollywood business is wicked and he had to get out to saved his life. Thanks for speaking Demond Wilson keep on living and spreading knowledge to the young generation✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾❤❤❤❤
God is with a capital G just for the record
Demond Wilson is a very intelligent, talented, and articulate man. He will tell you what you need to hear rather than what you want to hear which is why he made very few friends in the entertainment industry. Like his friend Cleavon Little (another extremely talented actor), Demond was never given the chance to display his full talents and we're the poorer for it.
Some of this stuff is real, some of it is bullshit. You have to be smart enough to know the difference.
@@fostermac7170 oh yeah and you’re the smartest person on the planet 😂
@@chinadoll534 Nope, just smarter than you if you are believing this conspiracy nonsense. Get an education and u won't have to lean on nonsense.
My dad fought in VietNam and he described his homecoming, it was the exactly as Mr. Wilson described. My dad never looked at this country the same after that. His advice to us was..just do the best you can in this life and make sure you Think of yourself first.

Oh noo I am sorry your Father went through this horrible ordeal. I don't care what anyone says the Vietnam War should have NEVER happened, and Our USA Men should have NEVER been drafted. in that dreaded war.UGH
Sanford and Son will go down as one of the GREATEST shows of all times. An absolute legendary classic. Thank you Demond and Redd for an absolute MASTERPIECE, that is STILL funny TODAY. No matter how many times I watch each episode, it’s as if I’m seeing it for the first time….funny as H$LL
😂😂😂
Yes😂
Yep, I was born in the 60's and raised in the 70's, and just a couple years back I got the thrill of my life getting my picture taken sitting in the actual Sanford and Son pickup truck, it's in the exact condition it was in when the show was filmed and the dash and visors are signed by all the surviving cast members including Demond and Nathaniel Taylor, the actor who played Lamont's shifty buddy Rollo and who coincidentally died the night before me and my buddy went to see the truck.
The place that has it deals in high end collector cars like you see on Barrett-Jackson, they bought it as a conversation piece and because like me they're the same age and grew up watching Sanford and Son in the 70's and when they found out the previous owner had put it up for sale couldn't resist getting it.
They have cast reunions at the place and were scheduled to have another one just two weeks later, the one owner invited me to come and told me he'd introduce me to Demond and everyone else which would have been an even bigger thrill but unfortunately after living in northeast Ohio for 11 years that was the weekend I was scheduled to move back to southwestern Pa where I'm originally from and just couldn't cancel all the arrangements I'd made, yea it sure would have been something getting my picture taken again in the truck with him in it to, wow what a missed opportunity.
If anyone's interested the trucks at a place in the Cleveland area called Blueline Classics in North Royalton OH, you can check it out on their website Bluelineclassics.com, they even sell real cool t-shirts that have the iconic Sanford and Son logo from the driver's side door of the truck on the front of them.
Yep, getting my picture taken sitting in that truck was the thrill of my life, and it's a picture I'm always shamelessly showing off to people.
@@dukecraig2402 Great story. Appreciate you sharing this. I know this was a very special and memorable experience. You’ve done what millions would want to do if they got the opportunity. Cool! Now, I’m gonna order one of those t-shirts from the website you shared. Thanks!!
Friday nights 😢on NBC will never be the same in New York. Sanford and Son and Chico and the Man afterwards. A light sleep and NBC Saturday morning line up with cereal. Thank goodness for reruns.
That’s because it was written by a black man
Also, GREAT JOB by the interviewer. You have discernment & wisdom in being able to identify the greatness of someone like Demond Wilson.
And you so respectful, humble, and ask great follow-up questions.
Demond Wilson need to get his own UA-cam page or podcast. He has a lot to say that's important.
And a Instagram page. Full of wisdom that needs to be told!!
Ehh... A guy from his era probably doesn't care about that.
Good luck with that. The devil will shut that down.
Great Honest, Straight To The Point, Don't Care About Nobody's Feelings Interview!
Respect To Demond Wilson 💪🏾💪🏾
Oh Yes!,Truth Indeed AMEN 🙏 ❤❤❤
Lamont Sanford is one honest and real brother. This is a real and straight to the point interview.
It is a great pleasure to see Demond again and he is looking very healthy and well.
This interview could have been smoother but it was very interesting.
Thank you young man you did a good job.
That Redd Foxx impersonation was pretty good😂
Spot‼️‼️‼️
Bill Mumy from Lost in Space can impersonate (Dr Smith) Jonathan Harris very well
Great interview. Loved listening to Demond. Kudos to the young interviewer for his professional, courteous and patient demeanor.
Demond is the patient one
Agreed
When he wasn’t interrupting 😂
@@rodscott7360 Agreed. At one point he told the interviewer “brother don’t look at your notes.” He was saying YOU asked the question son; LISTEN to the answer.
Stop the cap. Smh
The interviewer was terrible, giving clickbait questions, not paying attention to what Demond Wilson was expressing and NOT doing research on the Brotha. Very disrespectful. Smh
Mr. Wilson looks amazing to be 77 years young! Sanford and Son was one of my favorite shows when growing up as a child. Kudos to him for still being articulate, straight to the point, and sharing great details of his life experiences. Truly enjoyed this discussion!💗

*died
"It's a poor rat that only has one hole". My grandmother used to say this all the time. God bless Mr.Wilson for telling his story. Lots of gems here. Rest in peace, Mr.Foxx.
Young brother you handled this interview very well older people can be spicey, but then again most of them have seen things that many never will. ❤
No, he did not handle it well. He underestimated Demond. He has old school education- preparation, preparation, preparation!!! I hope he learned something!!!
