Can we get REAL ppl on here that is really trying to date or get to know someone. These ppl wasting time! Cast some serious ppl!
Let us know when you’re in town. We’d love to have you on!!!!
Exactly these pretentious people are ridiculous.
@@thatswhatgetsmeee6044Yes. Being catty and unagreeable is unattractive asf. When will they learn?
@@Sincerely_Lutfy Can you put the guys instagram accounts on the next video? I would love to have looked some of them up.
Sincerely_Lutfy is a great host he call people out on their BS I also loved how he check the ish outta tall Bow Wow I like chocolate 🍫 💯 😂😂😂😂😂
As a black man, this is the reason why it’s so hard FOR ME to date within my own community. So much stigma, self hate, and acting. Being a “Man” does not equate to presenting masculine but more so how you treat others and especially yourself and knowing your worth and accepting everyone else’s differences.
🙌🏽🙌🏽
That’s true. Masculine doesn’t necessarily equate to being a man.
You sound SLOW!! Most gay men want masculine presenting Men! Not a man with colored nails and a crop top! It is what it is!
And let’s get into the attitudes I ain’t gone lie a lot of us gay black men are mean with some nasty attitudes and slick mouths and think it’s cute. That’s another reason why it’s hard for us to date each other. Then they wanna feel a way when they see other gay black men dating none black men smfh.
@Zoeyblives Exactly.
They 're so fake, disingenuous, and closed minded. Such a shame.
Thank you for watching!
Doesn’t help that the host leans to much into the shade and doesn’t keep the conversation on track
I hate focusing on why someone isn’t attracted to someone else. It’s messy and can really hurt someone’s feelings unintentionally. I get its entertainment but geez this will scare away ppl who want to participate.
yall too soft.
Yeah the host was messy for this
@@bl2528the host needs to go. I can’t figure out his objective.
And when they said they’re just not my type they literally force them to body shame them. I would need therapy after it got posted. How embarrassing.
"Can"t keep up" seems like code for "won"t be able to put up with my toxic, high maintenance behavior." LOL
Oooop! Thank you for watching!
Facts… I’ve dated a few like that and they were exactly that
I will NEVER understand how grown men think having a slick mouth and ready to fight are personality traits. Bless them.
Very entertaining episode tho!
From the way he tried to throw a punch, his fight game looks like it's lacking. Now he can probably pull a pigtail and scratch real good😝
My only explanation is his age and lack of maturity but he’s not ready for that conversation. Cause all you’d get is sass and lips.
LMAOOOOO first dude ate with the “Your my daughter 👧🏾 “
😂😂😂
No shade! 😂😂😂
As a man that has experienced SEVERAL trips around the sun, I must commend the concept behind this show, specifically for the gay community. However, it saddens me to see the attitudes of the participants as it gives the impression that they are here for clicks and follows. I don’t want to see another generation get to my age and be lonely and depressed wondering what happened. Fortunately that’s not me but I know so many that wish they could have made better choices when they were younger. I think this is going to be an amazing show once the kinks are worked out. I’m a fan.
Thank you for watching!
30 and up next time please, these kids are walking Jackd profiles.
The guy in the green cardigan was 30+
Thank you for Watching!
Thank you for your observation!
Well hold on bec Ik plenty of 30+ guys that are also walking Jack’d Grindr and all other type of apps just bec a man is older don’t mean anything they can be just as worse than a mf in their 20 something
We need older more mature minded men on here. These lil mamas be stressing me awt
Thank you for watching!
@@Sincerely_Lutfy claro k si ☺️
"Lil mamas" lmaooooo
Everybody shoe game stressed me the hell out. Also the host needs to move on from certain topics, the forced answers made it awkward.
Thank you for watching!
That part! If I'm not attracted to this person the host will turn and around ask why are not attracted to this person? Like huh
@@byricelovett1131 Right like sometimes it’s just off energy and nothing to do with looks. That would irritate me having to explain that 😂
the energy is sad all the way around smh, just SAD
This group of choices is very messy. I thought the 3 of the guys who came out were quality but most of that Cast was silly, immature and very tacky. Light eyes talking about punching people in the face . The one well put together dude who was a member of the Cast was dismissed because of his weight.
Thank you for watching!
@@Sincerely_Lutfyyou don’t have to respond sarcastically with thanks for watching. This is the comment section, ppl will comment their opinions. You can write a general comment saying thanks for watching! Instead of being offended.
And why are we asking them what their sexual position is? Like damn.
Completely agree with you. I feel the objective behind this is too be messy instead of trying to have an elevated program. And the host isn’t helping.
@@JustObserving313the host is messy
@@Travel-With-David severely! He tries to play it off as being goofy
Who’s picking the cast? I’m so tired of the superficial gays. This is crazy. Everyone got a smart remarks n taken shots. This is wild😂😂😂😂
Thank you for watching!
I love the Wild Card…. Great way to switch it up! That HUMBLED all their asses real quick 😂
😂😂thank you!
We need more angles and close ups we can’t see the contestants
We know. There were a few issues here that we almost scrapped it but we decided to push forward. Thank you for watching.
@@Sincerely_Lutfyim glad you didnt scrap it. I still think it was better than first ep and the improvement can be measured and seen! Never scrap the ep just push the content until u get it right! But these type of filming take like 6+ hrs with retakes and breaks to make sure sound and video is perfect. So for a 2nd ep good job.
Thank you for your support!
zoom in
Oh Girl, these men are so interesting. “You’re not dominant enough”? Really? How dumb is that.
Thank you for watching !
The problem is you thinking they’re “men”. Boys, yes.
Thanks for displaying why gay black dating doesn’t work. The attitudes, stereotypes, always head to head, taking everything personally, etc. it’s draining as hell and it’s sad cuz I’m all for black love but I understand black men that date outside their race. It’s just too much.
Thank you for watching!
Y’all really think the grass is greener on the other side 😂
It is, trust me.
@@bladycryo7565 nope but I do think other races are less emotional and have better family values. The black community Is so ass backwards
@@bladycryo7565it is lol
The "country bumpkin" is REAL cute !!
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Bruh for the longevity of this show,pls cast serious minded individuals who are actually looking to date and connect with someone 🙏the society already sees the LGBTQ as a joke and shit like this would prove them right 😢
Casting is not easy my guy. It is what it is.
Will those types of people you mentioned want to be on the show ? Casting isn’t that easy
@@ayoayo7730 Yes! Especially since the gay community isn’t as big as straight folk AND it’s already a Chicago version so they probably competing to have the same people on their shows
Dispite the comments of people choice and cam. This is still a great gay version of pop the balloon.
I'm glad you still posted and I like you took control and made the cast follow the rules and not dodge the questions.
You kept your energy good!
Just learn from the mistakes and keep getting better because this can give you a nice coin.
❤👍🏾
Thank you! This ish isn’t easy. I appreciate your kind words!!!!
Excellent comment.
This episode was horrible. Y’all need to screen these people. They’re popping balloons just for the hell of it. The femphobia, fatphobia, and colorism is too much for me. The first episode was wayyyyyyy better!
Thank you for watching!
I didn’t spot any colorism, they were attracted to the dark skin guy in the line up and the picker with the yellow hat. Some of the guys on the line up wanted more pretty boys and they were interested in the guy with the curls who is fem/balanced until the reveal that he was the secret agent and fiesty. ONE guy mentioned body type. Relax.
@@bladycryo7565 agreed. 👍🏾 I don’t think having a preference = phobia.
@@bladycryo7565 pick up a book if you couldn’t spot it. You relax.
@@bladycryo7565 things don’t have to be directly mentioned to be problematic. Most of the things I mentioned are done unconsciously indirectly. That doesn’t make it better. All because I don’t like something, doesn’t mean I can’t show those problematic behaviors in indirect ways. Maybe there’s some unpacking you need to do to understand that.
the first guy wasn’t even given a chance 😞
The first guy, StyleChannel, was too good for any of these clowns!
@@alonzoabel7472 i agree completely. i hope he finds his perfect match
Why I feel like dark skin/olive shirt on the left was feeling black and yellow fit on the far left
😂😂😂
I caught that too
You're not observant! Dee and Chase as noted in the opening credits.
@@alonzoabel7472 what
Yeah I was saying the same thing. They definitely hunched after this was over! 😂😂😂
the question is - is the host single because whew. personality and then the looks, gorgeous man haha
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Honestly the casting needs some improvement, make it more cohesive and cast mens who fit a specific vibe, or esthetic, either fit, model like, street dudes, nerd, but not a mix of everything, they were all looking so random next to each other, it was awkward and slightly cringe to watch 🥴
I agree, I won’t mind an episode only with handsome men that are in shape like the host, commentator or that second bachelor ❤
Thank you for your comment!
Unfortunately casting for this type of show is not easy. Would you like to be on the next episode?
@@Sincerely_Lutfy Im actually French 🇫🇷😩 that would be complicate, but thanks for creating overall positive black gay content on UA-cam ❤️
I feel like a mix works better. If you have all slim nerds, but the guy only likes body builders, the entire cast is a waste. Granted there are multiple guys but yeah.
These adlibs are killing me 🤣. Never change Lufty
Thank you 🙏🏽
We love challllis 🤩🤩🤩
Something felt off, and I feel like the host was more aggressive this episode
Yep
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for watching!
One thing I have learned about these Pop the Baloon shows, the more handsome the guys in the row the nicer they are to the bachelors. The uglier the row, the ruder. They all popped their balloons without giving the first guy a chance.
Thank you for your comment!
So are u saying this row of guys was ugly or handsome lol
@@Qwanyyyy They didn't meet episode one criteria.
most of the time the ugly people are rude
@@Qwanyyyy 🤣🤣
I'm going to say this with the comments that's referencing is nothing wrong with the gay black man wanting a masculine man. I made this as a reply to someone else, but I think that this needs to be highlighted.
The issue with the pedestal of masculinity (which let's call a state of spade, it's not masculinity, it's hypermasculinity) in dating for gay black men is, when you like everything else about a person, but your central requirement for you to be with them is simply masculinity, which a lot of times is hypermasculinity (which there is a difference between masculinity and hypermasculinity) then yes, there is a problem. Because it's saying that you're not dating for love, you're dating for an aesthetic.
A lot of gay black men are not dating for love, they're dating for an aesthetic, they're dating for relationship goals, they're dating for Instagram real, they're dating for likes on an Instagram post. That is the reality, and if people want to stand 10 toes on the truth and say that the truth is gay black men want masculine men, then people need to stand 10 toes on the truth that a lot of black hat men date for aesthetic solely.
A lot will find their soulmate, and the minute they see a little bit of femininity, they'll be out the door. Then most of them behave feminine energy themselves, so if you turn that back on them, if you have feminine energy, and you want a masculine man, then what happens if everybody masculine man says that they don't want to date you because you have some feminine energy.... Now we're all single, which is where we're currently at, searching for the 1% that's basically not there.
Thank you for sharing!
This line up is tragic. So much unresolved trauma and toxicity.
Agree! It’s funny that they think they’re doing something but really only telling on themselves. Most of these dudes are walking red flags, save for the guy in the green cardigan and the guys on either side of him.
Thank you for watching!
Feel like the presenter needs to work on the flow of the conversation. Trying to talk to every single person one by one every single time is kinda stale. Some people are dead with the answers, avoid them!
Also get some name tags, how many times we gotta hear the same person introduce themselves lol
Thank you watching!
Clock it ! It started getting boring tbh 💀
Name tags is a good suggestion tbh
I'm soooooo disappointed. The level of absolute messiness. The immaturity of some, not all. I'm truly outdone. 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
Thank you for watching!
You are welcome
Give me the doctors the lawyers the principals the professors cause this ain't it
Thank you for watching!
This is such an archaic way of thinking. People can have professional success in so many different ways nowadays
Some of us do have advanced degrees with professional licensure.
@@johnjackson1466 I need mine to look and behave like it, sorry.
Green cardigan was cute 💚
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes the guy with green cardigan he is cute and he seem very much matured and family orientated❤
This was the best hosting ever , I love his style
Thank you!
That host is so entertaining and quick-witted. He breeds life into this series.
Thank you!
the feminine queens always wanna have a attitude
Thank you for watching!
🤣🤣🤣 For a hot second i was like, man everyone seem gay, then i read the description. Cool to see everyone having fun
Thank you for watching!
This is a whole mess. Especially the first guy and the last guy who was the "mole". With attitudes like that they'll never be happy
Thank you for sharing!
Bravo Lufty, Bravo! This was thoroughly entertaining! So glad you brought this back. Since we changing up the format, I have some suggestions: I loved the format change for the second guy, keep doing that, but then give the dudes on the line up a chance to pop their balloons after speaking with all the guys who still had a balloon. Also cut 2-3 guys on the line and give us more bachelors. After that, maybe include like a balloon swap towards the end, so someone who has a balloon can give it to someone who doesn't but wants one after the first two popping rounds. Maybe include like a prize at the end, like $100 gift card for a date, if you get a match.
Thank you for watching!
Love thissssss !!
Thank you for watching!
Honestly I’m living for the chemistry between Dee and Chase
Thank you for watching!!!!
#Finally 🎉👏🏾🙌🏾
Thank you!!
Thanks. I had fun fr. Definitely an experience!
Thank you for watching!
GREAT job Lutfy ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!! 😁
Lutfy is a good host, he has a Great Personality, yes the show had a few bump's, it will get better, i enjoyed it.
Thank you! 🙌🏽
@@Sincerely_Lutfy you're welcome.
I really enjoyed this episode!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you for the next episode. its nice to see gay men in a open space. Id love to see more backgrounds for the men or even a focus on interest.
Thank you for your comment!!
Lessgoo! Lufty back at it again.
Thank you!!!
The wild card was great, however, the two guys who think they pretty killed me😂😂😂😂...the only good looking is the emcee
Thank you for watching!
Love this! Keep it up and don't change anything. Was very entertaining. And cast whoever is interested in being on the show!
Thank you for your support!
Lutfy was letting folks know "I'm the Capt! I'm the Head _____ in Charge!"
Okay Zaddy!!! Lol
Love and Hugs from Los Angeles!

Thank you so much 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you Lutfy!!!
We Asked and You Answered ❤️
The host is hilarious lol I wonder what’s his sign, and having the guest pop the balloons instead was creative
Thank you for watching!
The fat shaming is real in this community
Thank you for watching!
That host is FINE AS HELL
Thank you!
He is! And with a great personality too !
The shallowness in our community hinders people from getting a decent person to date.
Thank you for watching!
The host pissed me off when the 2nd contestant came out. You made him pop the balloons based off looks then kept asking him why as if it was anything more than he could say other than looks. Then threw up him missing out on a man with money when again, you didnt allow him to ask questions himself before popping the balloons.
I was thinking this. Like the host was going over board. I don't understand why the top and bottom thing is a deal breaker when there are other ways to have a sexual relationship, and he kept pressing about these men appearances as if looks is all that matters. (not saying he's a terrible host or anything. I just think there are other healthier ways to discuss their opinions without being degrading or being rude.) - not just the host but contestants too.
The host has no hosting skills …he’s childish & a bit immature.
I totally agree! That didn't make any sense.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for watching!
This is our modern day “Next” but with more character and I’m definitely hear for it😂.
This is lowkey one of my favorite episodes! The line-up and the guests were all handsome and entertaining!! Lutfy, when you coming to NYC so I can audition for the show?!
Thank you. Soon!
1 of my pet peeves in the gay community is assuming that fem presenting guys are ok with being referred to as girl...I'm glad he corrected that and said they can hangout like "homeboys" and another 1 is using heteronormative as the standard for gay relationships
Thank you for watching!
Love these. Keep up the content 👏🏽🙂
Thank you! Will do!
If everybody wanna be the girl ..who gonna be the boy…that just don’t make no sense to me
Thank you for watching!
Love the host's energy 🔥😂
Thank you 🙏🏽
They got mad when it was done to them😂
Thank you for watching!
Love, love, love the concept, but could use some tweaks to represent us in a better light as some parts were extremely cringe, respectfully. Maybe have a conversation with the cast prior to filming about professionalism on set, appearances, and taking it more serious as it just feels as if they are there more for a tv appearance and not to actually date. Not asking about sexual positions since gay men are already viewed as overly promiscuous and it just sexualizes everything, and can take away from the experience of getting to know the guys that come on a deeper level, and not surfaced. I feel like more men would be willing to do this if they did not feel like they were going to get “shaded” and deal with cattiness the whole time. I am confident that this can be a major banger if revamped a bit. There is ample opportunity for growth. I will continue to watch and support.
Thank you for watching!
I love watching and what you’re doing. A lot of people commenting don’t understand how HARD it is to produce a show. Keep going and growing the more you put out the more they will beg to be on this show for CLOUT.
Happy for you guys 💫💫💫
I appreciate that! Well said. This ish is more than they know. From casting to filming and post production but you know everybody got something to say about something they ain’t doing.
I love that black queer people are creating content. That doesn’t mean we should settle for scraps. This is the problem - we’re always doing stuff subpar, praise it and wonder why we never have good things. Please set the bar higher.
🤣Everyone wants a trade piece…. END OF SHOW
Thank you for watching!
Dee want Chase BAD! And Chase is like uhhh ok. 😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I hate these types of shows but I love and am a huge fan of Lutfy. So I watch to support him and his efforts.
Thank you for your support!
you need a wider range of guys attracted to a wider range of guys…
Thank you for watching!
@@Sincerely_Lutfy ur welcome i like it - just a suggestion :)
Everyone looking for a top but am here ain’t no one coming for me
Thank you for watching!
I like the first guy
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I have always enjoyed your street interviews and now this show. I liked what you did with the second contestant, giving him the opportunity to choose. I also liked the whole "mole" idea too. I do think a better choice could have been chosen to be the mole (like the shy boy) no shade. Other then that, I think your show is great. Congratulations on many more to come🙏🏾
Thank you for supporting!
Love it 😂
Thank you! 🙏🏽
@@Sincerely_Lutfy for sure !!! Keep these dating episodes coming !!!!
Really entertaining ... great host!
Thank you 🙌🏽
Why the camera so far?Let's do more close up,more angles like the original pop the balloons
Thank you for watching!
Why they treating the second guy like that, he’s sooo adorable 😭😭😭😭
The guy in the green cardigan and the dudes standing on either side of him would be the only ones I’d be interested in getting to know. The rest are walking red flags. You should be almost expect to deal with drama, gaslighting, and violence with any of the others, especially the two on both ends.
Thank you for watching!
These guys seem socially inept!
Thank you for watching!
Craziness!!!! If your gonna have a diverse age group of presenters who are looking...the balloon holders should be just as diverse as well!!!
Thank you for watching!
@Sincerely_Lutfy I stay in the DMV..would love to be apart👌🏼
If people are serious✅️
Apply. Email in description
All bottoms case closed.
🥴🥴🥴🥴
Good job getting the cast together Lutfy. I know it’s difficult getting men on here to show their face and take this seriously
Thank you! 🙏🏽
We want Zay Zae on the lineup because that man is fine 😊😊
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
All things considered Lutfy I love that you produce this content, people complain about the compatibility or maybe production but the straights have it in every form and fashion so keep it coming!
Thank you for the support!!!
so much attitude and meanness and just bitterness, are yall really tryna find love or a sparring partner.?
Thank you for sharing!
D is the DARK CHOCOLATE 🍫 for me. 🖤🖤🖤
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Style Channel 🔥🔥🔥🔥 carried himself with grace. They think because he wear makeup he not thorough and that’s crazy. 😂 he 100% thorough bread!
Thank you for sharing!
The idea behind this is good. And that’s the extent of my positive feedback.
The host needs to work on his interviewing and hosting skills cause it’s lacking. He doesn’t need to insert himself into the experience to the extent he does. Also, stop trying to force things between the participants. I feel as though the guy who does the backstage interviews could be a better host because his questions are more intelligent.
Your camera angle needs to be worked on cause I don’t know what these people look like until they’re doing their backstage interviews. And hold off on the n-word cause this ish is overused.
Please ask smart questions. Please also get participants who are able to articulate. If the main participant is of a particular age, then it would make sense to have a wider age range of daters. Having these little boys with attitude and whose perspective is based on fashion, is banal and vapid. Having the participants doing their own stuff and having side conversations while an interview is taking place is just ghetto and disrespectful.
Edit: seeing the other similar comments is reassuring.
the way that these men are thinking make me not want to date LMBO 🤣 🤣 WHITNEY Houston said it best .."I'd rather be alone than unhappy" lolll In my opinion, their profiled concepts are interesting lol its ok to have your taste or particular type... but these are truly interesting ...
Thank you for watching!
@@Sincerely_Lutfy definitely indeed your welcome. Definitely entertaining 🫶
Praise god I’m in my 23 yr relationship well married now! Because the dating pull today is crazy or trying find love I would be lonely!! I’m praising god I don’t have to go thru them shenanigans
Thank you for sharing!
living for the Beyonce references from the host
We love Beyoncé!
Lutfy is multidimensional. 🔥 😈
Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you for a good show...we need such shows in our community. I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦 where LGBTQQIP2SA community is still taboo even though its legalized unlike other African countries at which lgbtiq is punishable by death,I feel like this guys just need to embrace LOVE ❤, they are all handsome and beautiful these hole typical clauses they put on preferences i honestly don't understand. You know loneliness and rejection is something i wouldn't wish to anyone considering the continent im in. Keep up the good work and keep the shows coming i honestly enjoy them alot ...
Stay blessed 🙌
Thank you for your support!
DOOOOOM, sir you fine🥰😂
Thank you for watching!
Huh?!?!? That part killed me lol
Thank you for watching!
I find this version of this concept more entertaining than the others I've seen. Lutfy and I have a similar way of navigating people, which I think is hilarious! However, watching this reminds me that each of these people represent types of people that are walking around everyday. The violence part.... Had he not said so, I wouldn't have known, and to know that there are people who are not only habitually violent but are also proud of that aspect of themselves is WILD to me! Maybe I've been outside of the US for too long, but just as I was just thinking dating life here in Shanghai is crazy, I think I prefer this over that!
Great episode! Personally, this kinda represents the current dating climate. For example, I can’t date you because we are in the same social circle or our fashions don’t match, or I’m too much and you’re not enough (ending with no shade) 😂. At the end of the day the day got to end, so fix it or don’t it’s your life. Great show!!
Thank you for watching!
The bachelor with the flannel was fine af. lol country or not damn
Thank you for watching!
Green cardigan def ate with that cardigan for one lol, green is my color but I also feel like they tried to downplay him as far as his "build", I don't like that because he's not that big
Thank you!!
