Mike Epps crushes his appearances on this show EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. What a legend.
Because he is himself.....never changes....like it or leave it....he's real...
He not really funny to me. He was only good in the Friday series
"That smell like it's been tampered with" LMAO! I'm crying😂😂
Quick Mike Epps story. I valeted once in Indianapolis for a week where he would hang out with us for about a hour each morning. He had gotten a new (very nice) motorcycle before it went to market, he didn't know how to ride it but it was fun watching him try. He was on the whole time making us all laugh.
That's awesome
Down to earth
Mike ages really good. Still looking and moving young.
It don't crack
Post the biden clips you coward
He looks better than he did 10 years ago, must be Illuminati quality lotion or something. Whatever Jennifer Aniston uses
Money helps. *A lot*.
He's not THAT OLD
Mike Epps is great at stand-up, but even better as an actor. I don't care what anybody says, Friday After Next is the funniest Christmas movie ever.
Can’t forget his ‘black Doug’ on the hangover
Yesssssss thank you Friday After Next is the 👌 best
Agreed
Next Friday was better than Friday
Yup
Mike Epps killed that. He low key is a really good actor.
The “low key” really took away from the impact of that sentence. It would’ve made more sense and been more truthful without it.
He is a better actor then stand up imo.
Naturally funny. The type of guy who was always enjoying himself no matter the situation.
He was a fool on Roll Bounce as well. "Neva better Brutha Neva Better" 🤣🤣 "You gone get my money some type of way!!"
naw....in how high as Powda "notta nann nutta"
Lol that man said “ I wanna be like you when I grow up “
I could listen to Mike Epps tell a story all day long! He’s entertaining even when he’s not trying to be.
Thats what makes him so funny..
Agree.🙌🏽💕😊
I love Mike Epps on the Upshaw! Give him his flowers now!
Wanda Sykes really carries the show, Mike Epps and Kim Fields don't have good chemistry
@@a-train3503 Really you you think so. I thought they have good chemistry.
@@karenhampton9693 I don't see it, but everyone has their own opinion
Not too many people can get Jimmy going, that was hilarious!
I love jimmy kibbles he makes me laugh so hard it hurts my bottom surgery.
He had the band cracking up too as you could see as he ran around the table. Lol
@@cocaine_hookers butt surgery?
@@MoSizzlac97 Reee huwhite supremist!
That laugh is so damn fake
Mike Epps is comedic genius!!!! one of my favorite comedian
Mike Epps has kept us laughing🙏🏽💕
I met Mike Epps at that comedy show in Oakland! Lol! And some of the warriors too, great vibes, man!
One of my all time favorite comedians, stand-up and movies.
Mike Epps will always be hilarious
I really do see The Upshaws as the best Netflix Original sitcom!
I love about Mike that he always keep it hood.
Richard Pryor is timeless Icon.
I've ran into Mike a few times now recently like this past 2 weeks and he's a real genuine guy. He talks to me every time we see each other. He's truly Indiana's Inspiration 🖤
Mike Epps plays Dede in real life lol
Jason Kropodra DaeDae
Um who's dede? 😳 😆 🤣 😂 😹
He plays day day....day by day
@@joeybiden9280 Don’t know Epps if you don’t know Day-Day
@@jblack8149 I’m sure it was sarcasm on how the other person spelled it. Smh!
Mike Epps is naturally funny! 🤣🤣🤣
Mike Epps is a treasure.
Mike is so hood, you cant take the hood out of him for sure😂 love Epps
I still want to grow up to be just like.. MIKE EPPS!!
Mike Epps has always been funny, and I'm happy to see he's having longevity in his career; and to play Pryor what a testament to Epps' greatness 👏
Great Interview Mike never fails to make us laugh man💯🤣
Love him, He and Jimmy are so much fun I love listening to them laugh...🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was great playing Richard Pryor in that Winning Time episode wish it could've been longer
the second season of the upshaws on netflix june 29th
My man, Epps, with the pimp stroll... Gon' with yourself. I've always loved the dude. It's got to be difficult to play the absolute best comedian of all-time... THE funniest dude ever: The Great Richard Pryor. All the best to Mike Epps.
Oh yes Richard Pryor was the great one. Long Beach 1979 best show ever.
@@keithharris4378 Truly great, great show. Pryor was all arm-pitted out, and just sizzling on the stage. I grew up in LB; should have gone to the show. Still holds up all these years later.
Mike Epps is a great comedian. Congratulations on that man success. Blessings 👍🏾🔥💫💯👑💙
Many don't know the genius of Richard Pryor.
Anthony Michael Hall always has. He taped inspiration in all those '80s movies
So true! With the laughter.
Love Mike's energy. He's so funny and just has a contagious laugh. It'd be an experience to be this man's kids. 😂
Hope to see the DVD when it comes out,or the movie. Also I hear what he saying about the Jordans, because one of my Grandchildren telling me once that he doesn't wear old people shoes while he away wearing a pair of Chuck Taylors then I showed him a picture of me when I was around 16 wearing a pair. That shut him up real quick.
You messed that lil dudes whole world up lol
Mike always makes me laugh
he was spot on with steph 😂😂
Mike one of the best… thx for everything 🙌🏼❤️
Funny, I met Mike at a Chevron Gas Station about 18 Years ago when they were filming All About The Benjamin’s In Miami This Guy is so down to earth.
Stay Humble and Bless Always 🙏🏽
Those two together had me laughing the whole clip.. Love them both!!
I noticed what he said about blacks people falling on tables this was during the def jam shows… when Martin called out the lady in a yellow fluffy suit.
@@jamman8678 yep, I remember that clip!! ♥☺
Can’t wait for season 2 of the Upshaw’s 🧡
I think Mike Epps is a pure comedian He would be perfect to play legend Richard Pryor!!!
he has always reminded me of backyard parties in the hood in the summer.
Love Epps! Dang he could play Jerry Rice in a bio as well.
Good point bro
What Jerry Rice!😂😂😂
Love seeing him at Indiana Pacer games. super nice , down to earth , guy.

Mike Epps body gestures are hilarious to me. He’s the GOAT
Have always loved Mike since I was a lil kid 🤣💕👍
Mr Epps is a good funny human.
I’m convinced Mike can play a dramatic role & do well
Yes definitely! I loved his role in Sparkle as Satin; it was dramatic/funny…
I met mike Epps at my weed store a year ago and he was unsure about the Pryor movie at the time, cause I asked him how he felt on playing him, and here we are lol Epps was a great dude in person
Mike epps stand up underrated never faded etc has stood and will continue to stand the test of time.
I LOVE THE UPSHAWS SOOO MUCH I WATCHED THE ENTIRE SEASON ONE 4 TIMES!!!!!

Mike Epps is just plain funny! He brings out the gift bag and complains that it gets lighter each year...and I liked what he was wearing and how he keeps his hair.
Dude is just a legend, a genuine human being and just naturally funny! I wish him nothing but happiness ☀️🔥
Teach them Mike about Jordan and comedy! We love 💕 u!
Mike Epps is the reason we forgot about Smokey on every following Friday.

Love the Upshaws ! Great show
Mike epps...hilarious comedian and actor great 2 see him doing well....even from over here in ireland 😊.
When I was in college I lived on Parthenia half a block from the Americana movie theater. I would always go to this theater. I would see Richard Pryor come to that movie theater so many times. He would park his canary yellow Rolls Royce right in the front, although it was a red zone, the cops would let him park there. I started saying hi to him and he would always speak to me. He was always funny in a quiet way.
Omg his steph curry impression 🤣🤣
I love Jimmy and Mike Epps. I cannot wait for Season 2 of the Upshaws. You will laugh every episode. Great show.
