    So many people in the comments section that have no clue about the comedic greatness of Mr. Richard Pryor.
    You’re saying he’s not funny, but he’s not trying to be funny...he’s being real and spitting truth in a comical way.
    He’s intentionally being disruptive here not because he’s trying to placate you or put on an act. He’s doing it because he thinks it’s hilarious and because he can.
    Richard’s genius was always in his ability to tell America about itself to its face and smile and laugh while he was doing it.
    Most of the real Richard Pryor fans know that. Too bad so many in the comments section are so ignorant to this fact.

I can't believe this video survived. Many lessons in here from RP and one that I took is - don't give an "F" what other people think - be real. I know it but can always use reminding.

    He was clearly upset inside. The industry life was getting to him. He said, " I gotta steal money from myself." He said that because entertainers don't have access to all of their money. They have to get permission from their accountant (that's given to them) to make purchases and withdraw money over a certain amount. He was probably pissed off inside about a lot of things.

    He was lit & woke at the same time. Every thing he said was facts. Feel like he was speaking in 2017. I was a kid when he died so seeing him high doesn’t bother me as much as someone who probably saw him in his prime

      I find this video sad. Richard is upset in this video. He is high as fuck but he is pissed off. And because he is high he is uninhibited and speaks freely about the number one issue that plays on his mind. Race.

    • @javtimestwo
      @javtimestwo 9 років тому +1

      +roddaz I also find the video very sad. Hearing the laughter in the background is depressing. Those must be all the enablers & hangerons who made sure Richard had his blow and enjoyed watching Richard embarrass himself in front of a high school teacher. Race was dominating his mind and so was being wealthy. Just sad to watch a great comedian slipping.

      Edward-The man was in serious pain and even though he is considered a genius, Pryor could have been even more popular and even more legendary. But the drugs ruined him and what we see here is a junkie that is out of control.

      It was definitely cool to see all three of those guys on screen but Harlem Nights wasn’t too great IMO. I thought the first 30minutes had some funny scenes but the last hour was pretty eh. I first saw it in the theater when I was 15.
