The OG King of Comedy!

Brilliant writer with a very dry, blunt sense of humour ,Mr. Paul Mooney is a true a comedic genius. His social commentary is raw, funny but always the truth. Specializing in the topics no one wants to comment on. Paul’s writing talents span 40 years of American Pop culture. Richard Pryor’s head writer from the 70’s, In Living Color’s Season 1 head writer all the way to a contributing writer on The Chappelle Show. This man is FUNNY, period! His resume speaks for itself! (Check it out below the vids)

One of my favorite Paul Mooney bits!
Classic line: “You aint gettin this jewelery, not all this prayin’ I din done.”
