He's popped up in my YouTube shorts a lot. Hasn't done anything for me to dislike him. He's not overly funny or anything though. At least not to be popping up as much as he has. Granted I guess once you click one video, the algorithm will feed you more based on that.

I saw some clips on his Facebook after some friends got tickets he's pretty funny to me.

His crowd interactions are really good.

not going to lie

You hear "tiktok comedian" and immediately roll your eyes. I get it. he's a pretty boy, brocolli hair adjacent type dude who looks like Hillary Swank in that trans movie


But I've checked out some of his stuff, especially his crowd work, and he's legit. Very quick, good at towing the line of being offensive.

The answer is the women are super horny for the dude and he’s gone viral a few times on tik tok and instagram so they’ve likely seen a handful of crowd work clips and assume he’s George Carlin, but then again they don’t really care they mostly think he’s just attractive

That feels like a title that doesn’t really make sense for him. He’s a comedian that’s gotten popular from tik tok clips….of his stand up. That’s pretty much how most people get themselves on the map these days

A Tiktok comedian is the guys who are like 40 year olds still doing “that feeling when you get out of English class early” skits and “Women really do be like this” type content

Crowd work clips are like liquid gold to the algorithms

he's actually been doing stand up since he was 15 and was on Wild n out and bring the funny few years back.

Recently he has really embraced Tik Tok and blew up from a combination of his comedy actually being good and the ladies thinking he looks good too. His crowd work it great. Reminds me a lot of what Patrice O'neal used to do in his sets. I was thinking of getting tickets to go check him out before I saw how quick they were selling. Might get resale tickets later hard to know what Ill have going on then as it's right around Mardis Gras

I'm with you and the OP. Saw stuff on FB from friends posts and didn't know who he was. Went to YouTube today and it was fine. Quick on his feet like someone else said, but I didn't see anything that would make me shell out money to see him

He’s funny but not that funny to pay those prices. I think he’s Dane Cook 2.0. Basically his ticket prices are high because women think he’s cute. I’m sure other comedians are gonna love that.

Yea he’s blown the frick up but I don’t get it. Does he actually tell jokes? Every single clip I’ve seen is him just being witty with someone in the audience and that’s it.

I watched a few clips and it seems very made up. I bet a lot of those "improv audience interactions" are plants. And even if they aren't plants, I didn't find much of it funny at all.

He's on Wild-n-out and had some good contributions there. His best was when the name of the jeopardy game was "what is something only white people do" and his answer was "what is spending time with my dad" lol.
Since then he's focused on stand-up. The few clips of his actual material have been okay, few chuckles but no belly laughing. Where he is really great at is his crowd work, very quick witted and not PC and does a good job of making of each race/religion evenly. In recent history the only comic that outshines him with crowd work is Andrew Schulz. Ian Bagg is another one who's pretty good with crowd work
And women think he's hot. He's even joked about being "new sexy" with him hitting a second puberty at like 23yrs old lol

He looks kinda familiar to me, and I bet this is why (although I haven't seen WildNOut in years.

I've never heard of him until a couple days ago, and I jsut watched this clip about older women, and barely even cracked a smile. From what I gather, it's definitely girls/women thinking he's hot and seeing him on TikTok.

Anybody have any funny clips of him? Seems weird that I've never heard a sniff of this dude and he's selling out world tour arenas.

I bet the audience will be 75% women with the 25% men having to go because their SO wanted to go.
