Redd Foxx vs Richard Pryor vs Dane Cook

[JohnnyTheFox]

Ok so i put dane cook in there just as a joke. I gotta go with Foxx because he was the better all around entertainer.
Some of his old stuff on albums was second to none. Also LaWanda Page had some pretty naughty stuff on her old albums....quite the opposite from her Aunt Ester character.

I was gonna say... Man he doesn't belong in that crowd.

I'll take Foxx too. Not as big I guess, but everything he did was just dead on. One of the funniest guys on TV and vinyl.

One of these things is not like the other :laugh1:

This is the dropoff for you. You have 3 legends and then those two unfunny guys.

BTW, Pryor with the slight edge over Foxx.

Actually, I don't even put Chris Rock in with Prior and Murphy.

I would. There was a 3-4 year period where Rock was arguably the funniest person on the planet so I would put him in Pryor and Murphy's category. He isn't above those two but he is in the room.

 

[CowboyDan]

Pryor, without a doubt. Too bad I can't post anything longer than 3 seconds from him.

Chris Rock and Kat Williams crack me up nowadays.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Easily Richard Pryor.

Chris Rock is a BRILLIANT stand-up comic. Don't let his subpar comedic films fool you, the dude is magic on a stage.

70'S - Richard Pryor

90's - Bill Cosby

Now - I really like Louis CK and Gabriel Iglesias

All time: Richard Pryor

Fixed

I agree...and bullets should cost $5000

This is a no brainer. Foxx was good, but Prior is in a class that only a few ever have reached.
