Alfonso is just soo on point here about work ethic and self reliance, self responsibility, not leeching on the back of others. Soo much respect for him.
Alfonso ribeiro Minute 7:48" "you need to learn how you learn, and then you can simplify how to learn something, once you understand how your brain works" ..... well said!
yep. the liberals probably got in their feelings. the conservatives got too excited. But people expecting others to help them earn money is ridiculous.
Excellent discussion about the importance of knowing one's learning style. A lot of people are told they are not smart when really they are not being taught in their primary learning style.
@@kingdomcitizenship5613 nah the carlton role did... There's a story about the show in which they were allowed to pick their character's names. Will chose his real name in case the show blew up. He didn't wanna be known AS the character. Alfonso did a helluva job as Carlton, and that's how he's remembered. He was in the movie Ticks, back in the day and he was good. He could've used some serious roles to break the idea of him as Carlton. Never happened but he's a dope actor nonetheless
I love that they played Billie Jean when Michael's name was mentioned and everyone just stopped talking for two seconds and felt that beat. THAT'S respect to the King of Pop right there. #LOVEYOUMJ #LOVEYOUCARLTON
dodgerdawg13 what does trump have to do with MJ being a child abusing piece of garbage? I don’t even support trump but don’t think he needs to be brought up during every argument. Or in this case factual statements
@@eh5872 - Oh, so you think 'dude dude' was writing facts? Uh, you might want to re-read the court transcripts OR the FBI files... Michael Jackson was proven to be INNOCENT - NO wrong doing of any sort. The only thing he did that could be perceived as wrong was trusting the wrong people, hence being a victim of extortion of the worst kind. Read a little & learn a little!
I will never underestimate this dude's knowledge ever again. All the gems that he dropped. He is truly Hollywood royalty. I wish this interview were longer!
I met him in Hawaii back in 1989 gave and him props for his Pepsi commercial with Michael Jackson (at that time I was impersonating Michael Jackson at The Hilton Hawaiian Village and Cilly's Night Club where he was that night) and I asked him what was new with him. He told me he was really excited about a show he just auditioned for and was now a part of. I congratulated him and said, "I looked forward to seeing it man!". He humbly said thanks and, "I've got a feeling it is gonna be a really great show.... At least I hope it is. But I've got a really good feeling about it". And of course, he was right! lol. More than he could have probably ever imagined. Great seeing he's still positive and productive using his gifts and talents and sharing his wisdom with us after all these years. Salute!
This was educational (learn how you learn), practical (work and succeed instead of expecting others to hand it to you), motivating, amusing and a great example of a positive interview experience. Alfonso is a class act.
+MrPoPcornGuY1 lls bruh that's too real...this man is doomed to be Carlton for the rest of his life he probably gets free shit everywhere he goes I'm not mad at it!
Loved every second of this interview, Alfonso dropping serious knowledge. Truly appreciated his take on discovering how you learn best, we don't stress that enough as a society.
Now we can see why he’s been able to grow up in Hollywood and never be involved with a scandal.......he’s had great parents and real friends.........very rare in that environment. Wish him a long and prosperous life. Peace
I have a photographic memory too. LIke the exact same way as Alfonso. I used to pass tests memorizing textbook pages. Finally, someone understands us lol
+blackezi3 - If you're telling the truth you should be rich. If you're telling the truth & you're not rich......U'll figure the rest out, ...or you won't.
@@Kmakmizzle not true tho. I remember shit by mnemonics, and photographic memory. It's a talent, but not that rare. A lot of successes just aren't asked about it
Im glad he said what he said do the work and stop asking for handouts I'm glad he answered the way he did black people, let's stand up and do our work.
So many people forget he was on Circus with the Stars and he did the trapeze. Then he won on Celebrity Duets years later. That was years before he was on DWTS. He has done so much in his lifetime and he is not even close to all his achievements yet. Those were just a brush of the surface.
How can you dislike this, its just insane. Im having a serious problem with my school and bad grades and this video TOTALLY made me forget about it until the video finished and i started writing this 100% honest. This man Alfonso is a one of a kind genius. His kids are VERY lucky, hope he continues what he does.
Carlton was iconic, which is amazing considering the brief must have just been "Play a dorky white guy". Instead he became a treasured and much loved character, and that can only attributed to Riberiro's fine performance.
Man this dude dropped some gems. The learning method was fascinating but when broke down how to steal a scene and stealing a scene back....that was definitely Insider secrets. And I've seen him on director credits for shows like all of is which was Will Smith show. So I think Will has helped in his own way.
Doesn’t he have a Trinidad cultural background as well. I think the Trinidads culture has a huge impact on how he composes himself. Yes his black , but I don’t think he grew up with American culture within his house only stepping out of the house.
I wish I had teachers growing up that had Alfonso's open-minded attitude about learning. We all learn in different ways and it really stunts kids educational growth when they are forced into a box that doesn't work for them. If my mom wasn't an educator I don't know what I would have done!
I just love Alfonso his dignity and respect for other people and most of all the humidity he gave us kudos to everyone but he is a superstar in my book just love you Alfonso you are unbelievable and so talented 😍
Alfonso seems like a genuine cool dude, it's good to see people like him being himself, I liked what he said about Will Smith and how he did not expect the help to get it yourself. A lot of people are like that wanting help and hating on others for not giving, great interview.
Mr. Magoo Man, that's how they do. Grand Puba has a line on that song "Don't Let It Go To Your Head"... "C'mon, dead that. That's the tenth time I've heard that... all you know is 'gimme'... I work hard for every penny that I make... video and tape... LP and CD, if I fall, you feeding me?... no dough to spread, always keep a level head... as long as my seeds get fed, it won't go to my head." You covered that when you mentioned how they weren't around when you were broke and depressed.
I like Alfonzo's true speaking voice. And I thank the female co-hosting the show for bringing up LL Cool J and how they tried to make him like Will (albeit lighter in humor and slapstick).
"Friends don't owe! They do because they wanna do!"--Rocky Balboa
Alfonso nailed it. No one owes you anything.
the hood is full of crabs
No one owes me a damn thing, but I owe myself EVERYTHING.
Exactly!!
I'm so glad that Will & Alfonso stayed right after Fresh Prince. That's incredible. True brothers on and off screen.
very significant
Khalid Mxsic that’s why I like them both
Not to be a negative nelly but they were cousins on the show :)
We still together like that Height of his
Janet Hubert Whitten was his Aunt and they hate each other to this day
Alfonso Ribeiro kept it all the way 100%
I have so much respect for Alfonso.
Same man, same. He’s a genius.
Alfonso is just soo on point here about work ethic and self reliance, self responsibility, not leeching on the back of others. Soo much respect for him.
What the hell did he just say ....
'America's Got Talent' needs to give him the gig full time. I was in love with the boy when he was on Silver Spoon. He's just good people
Alfonso ribeiro Minute 7:48" "you need to learn how you learn, and then you can simplify how to learn something, once you understand how your brain works" ..... well said!
GOLD!!!!
The best line
on the Will Smith thing Alfonso's replied like a real man should
beatswork Yes He Did..Much Respect To Him for That
For real, great answer to a weak ass question, it was insulting even.
That was an incredible answer.
yep. the liberals probably got in their feelings. the conservatives got too excited. But people expecting others to help them earn money is ridiculous.
beatswork tru. Alonso got a lil name for himself. Host, dancer & actor etc..
Excellent discussion about the importance of knowing one's learning style. A lot of people are told they are not smart when really they are not being taught in their primary learning style.
+Liz Richardson and then they come to me, the speech therapist, who then has to side eye the person who made that referral like, really?!?
+Eb R. B. I'm sure that gets old. At least you can enlighten them.
+Liz Richardson for that you get a W
Liz Richardson TRUE DAT , TRUE DAT ! ! ! ! Hold This 'W' Right Quick Till Further Notice . . . .
You are sooooooo right
Alfonso is a real ass dude. I wish he had more TV or movie roles.
I wonder if the Carlton dance ruined him
@@kingdomcitizenship5613 I don't think so. He does hosting .

Wow I'm blown away! That was such an amazing interview
Justin TimberBAKED: I 2nd that emotion!!
Justin TimberBAKED WOW!!! I'm listening to him bout his dance moves amazing
I love him and his view on friendship verses favors. #respek
Gotta put sum respek on it
I'm happy that Alfonso is getting the all the push he deserves

+Det. Munch: .......And, your comment came from a truly IGNORANT species.......YOU!!!

As a public school teacher
I’m very glad he talked about the different learning styles that people use.
This was educational (learn how you learn), practical (work and succeed instead of expecting others to hand it to you), motivating, amusing and a great example of a positive interview experience. Alfonso is a class act.
No matter what, i will always know him as Carlton.

+SLAMMINnJAMMIN if there's one show I would want to been doomed for it's the Fresh prince of bel air. ❤️
Ledgez me to lol
I still remember him as Alfonso on Silver Spoons
Action Scott k
Alfonso was dropping gems, loved it!!
"You need to learn HOW you learn". Hands down to that line right there 👌
Loved every second of this interview, Alfonso dropping serious knowledge. Truly appreciated his take on discovering how you learn best, we don't stress that enough as a society.
Much respect for how he answered the Will question.
Surprisingly great interview. I would even say that this is one of the best interviews that I've seen on sway in a long time.
+Mark Jones alfonso is enlightened, a true showman
Gemini Brown I agree
Agreed!
Good dude, him as a kid in Micheal Jackson Pepsi commercial is legendary....
Alfonso- Legend! Even more so than Will. Alot of people don't realize it or won't acknowledge. But he is.
This guy Wonderful!
If I could like this twice, I would.
I did!! from somebody else's phone lol
Dalibor Zujovic Just create another profile!
Add my like to yours
Alphonso has a very mature perspective on a lot of things...it's refreshing to see that..he seems like a cool dude which is kind of rare in Hollywood
What an amazing interview way to go Sway and Alfonso still killing it
Now we can see why he’s been able to grow up in Hollywood and never be involved with a scandal.......he’s had great parents and real friends.........very rare in that environment.
Wish him a long and prosperous life.
Peace
Love the convo on learning styles. I am a repetition learner as well. It always fascinates me to hear of other learning styles.
For those that don't know, Michael Peters was the gang leader in Michael Jackson's "Beat It" video.
Thank you that is my favorite Micheal Jackson video
I have a photographic memory too. LIke the exact same way as Alfonso. I used to pass tests memorizing textbook pages. Finally, someone understands us lol

This was the best interview on sway thus far. Thank you.
Alfonso a cool dude, respect.
Learn how you learn. What a jewel of how you thinking works.
Im glad he said what he said do the work and stop asking for handouts I'm glad he answered the way he did black people, let's stand up and do our work.
inspiring comment on friendship and achieving your goals. truly wise thoughts
he's such a cool dude. ❤💚💜💙💛
Alfonso has a great radio host voice. He should consider that field later in his entertainment career.
LOVE THIS DUDE. Very mature and wise way to answer the Will Question. Just hope the best for you Alfonso.
You never saw the "Apache (Jump on it)" dance scene from Fresh Prince??!
"HOW SWAY?!! HOW?!!" 🤔
And they don't remember if carlton lost his virginity or not like come on, that's one of the most classic carlton centered episodes 😂
atem15 which season/episode is it?! I need to watch it
Exactly!!! EVERYBODY except Sway has seen that joint.
atem15 yeah ol' girl who ended up being married

DOWN.....TO.....EARTH!!! Love this interview. Very profound individual. Salute!!!
Black people tend to criticize black men that act like him, but he's seems to live a fun stress free life.
thats because we know wats going on behind closed doors
C. Okafor86 what do you know?
No we do it to cartlon not alfonso not that its any better
T - Bola right smh
Doesn’t he have a Trinidad cultural background as well. I think the Trinidads culture has a huge impact on how he composes himself. Yes his black , but I don’t think he grew up with American culture within his house only stepping out of the house.

Okay okay. Definitely one of the best interviews ever. Intellectual, funny, on point. Surprisingly one of the realest.
He could be a great replacement for Michael Strahan On Live !
+Tyler Brill yea me too
Actually a really good idea
olivier toussaint Really. White ppl Love him. Black love him for real. Fresh Prince did him right. He can play the fence just like Mike..
Good idea, if not him I can do it!
I just love Alfonso his dignity and respect for other people and most of all the humidity he gave us kudos to everyone but he is a superstar in my book just love you Alfonso you are unbelievable and so talented 😍
him and will smith talk exactly alike...
Because they are besties hahaha
no
T.Cooke No, Will learned to talk by him during their tv show days.
They do not.
@@jamiestrong4138 I am pretty sure that he was able to speak before he met Alfonso.

What a great interview and the dance scene, in the end, was great.
Alfonso should become a life coach, this interview is going to make me reevaluate certain aspects of myself.
I knew Alfonso was a genius......#WizeCounselor
such an amazing, genuine and fun character and human being!
Why hating ass Hubert got her 6 family members to dislike this video? 😂
😂😂😂😂
Omg that is a hilarious joke!
he's such a genuine guy
he needs his own show!
“Dope interview. Being myself easy”...powerful
He was talking to Janet Hubert with that speech. Straight checkin' her, too.
Yes he was! He spoke the truth
Kim Austin I agree... many blacks need to hear that message, too... we always wanna leech on to those who made it.
Mr. Magoo
Man, that's how they do. Grand Puba has a line on that song "Don't Let It Go To Your Head"... "C'mon, dead that. That's the tenth time I've heard that... all you know is 'gimme'...

You covered that when you mentioned how they weren't around when you were broke and depressed.
Queen Yaela can’t lift people who don’t want to be lifted. Meet me half way and then we can support another is what I say
You said a mouth full ,Uncle Phil kinda let people know Janet Hubert played herself,she thought she was all that.
Thumbs up 👍🏿 to Alfonso on his friendship with Will. Sounds like they have a great one
Alfonso sayin "uhhh" when Sway mentioned Master P. That's how you end a show. Lol
EastwoodGames Seriously! That’s what I was thinking too
Lots of gems in this conversation. Alfonso is really wise.
The convo about stealing scenes and blocking the attempted stealing of scenes while acting had me DYING laughin 😂😂😂
DB the man for that, alfanso is too for giving him and all of us that moment #genuine dude love the interview #swayuniverse
carlton is up there kicking knowledge sounding like neil degrasse tyson and shit..
His response was really good.
I used to write about Alfonso in my diary!! We are all in the same age "bracket" lol!!! I still love him. Thanks for doing this interview!!!
That was an awesome interview and truly great words of wisdom! Thank you Alfonso!
Wow i just learned how to study, thank you Alfonso
Man I could totally see this guy doing a TED Talk and I would absolutely watch it. He’s got a lot of wisdom.
I'd like to see him make a come back in a comedy movie that would be dope
I liked him before, but I think I have fallen in love with Alfonso now. Thanks guys.
I see Alfonso pulling of a great villain or gangster in some movie :D
Yeah, I could see that. He's very talented.
Lol it's odd cause he does give off that vibe
Cnote
Yooooooo great interview!! I am in tears with the Apache dance. Hysterical!
He's Kool as hell
Love this guy! Great to see he is doing well. :)
CAN you imagine carlton in bad boys instead of Martin Lawrence? Lmao
silent phantom wow what a combo that would of been 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmfao
I was just thinking that. Would be perfect!
Hell no. Martin was the best for that role
It would have been fresh prince forever
Respect to Alfonso! He holds it down for himself and his friends. He’s a solid person!
I am old, I remember Silver spoons
+tolkus53 LOL, got the theme song in my head right now! That use to be can't miss TV for me for a hot minute.
yes! I think now I watched too many tv shows as a kid.lol
So do I. I knew him as Alfonso before Carlton.
@@mistercool3859 Good. That IS his name.
That was his name on Silver Spoons, too.
This flowed really good Sway and Heather. Thank you for being gracious host. Thank you Alfonso for knowing how to do you and keeping it on GO.
I like Alfonzo's true speaking voice.
And I thank the female co-hosting the show for bringing up LL Cool J and how they tried to make him like Will (albeit lighter in humor and slapstick).
He is so down to earth I love it
Damn this was a great vid!
really impressed with the importance of learning one's own learning style
