When he first started out I thought he was pretty funny. He would make a lot of jokes about black culture in America. I watched some interviews about him starting comedy groups in Africa - they didn’t have comedy. It sounded like the whole idea of “comedy” as entertainment was foreign to them. “Hard to do comedy there - you say the slightest wrong thing and they haul you off to prison.”
Funny - now he can say whatever the heck he wants and he’s STILL not happy. I haven’t seen him after hearing about how anti-American he is. Sort of like Dave Letterman - I used to love that show until about 1995 or so.
Then, after more articles read, I asked again.
He did NOT "start comedy in RSA" at all; not by a long-shot! And since he was born the year before "Saint Nelson" became the president of RSA, he has never known what that nation was like, personally, prior to his birth. Nor does he actually KNOW anything at all about the "AMERICAN BLACK EXPERIENCE"!
I NEVER liked Letterman; heck, after Johnny Carson left, I stopped watching late night shows like that completely. Heck, I didn't even watch the last few years worth of Carson. ;^)
