I believe Charlie Murphy, but he could end up being wrong.

Right?

Eh... maybe that's just wishful thinking.

Part of it is staged (the bits on the street, I mean), but I like Mencia. His show is pretty good. It's big into the "politically incorrect" thing.

His stand up "Killin them softly" is the funniest stand up I think I have ever seen.

From the time article I read, a lot of it was him being obsessed with topping his previous work. Hard to improve on near-perfection. That, plus I don't think he could deal with suddenly becoming the standard for black comedians the way Chris Rock was in the nineties.

Lot of pressure. Sucks that there will be no more Chapelle.
