The rudest, lewdest, crudest cult TV comedy is in the UK at last! For nearly 10 years, Def Comedy Jam has been a huge hit on TV in the USA (HBO) and now you have a chance to see some of the biggest names in black comedy. And this is the uncut version – too hot for regular TV. See the raw and riotous talents of D.L. Hughley, Adele Givens, GiGeorge, Simply Marvalous, A.J. Jamal and many other new stars in three great, live-recorded shows. And they’re all hosted by the legendary Martin Lawrence (House Party, Bad Boys, Do The Right Thing …), the man who hip-hopped all the way to Hollywood.
This second volume of the series features the controversial Chris Rock (Me, Myself and Irene, Lethal Weapon 4, Dogma) who hosts one of the live shows. Chris Tucker (Rush Hour, Ocean’s Eleven, Charlie’s Angels 2) features in the second show which is hosted by (Bad Boys) Martin Lawrence. The third show includes such greats as Cedric the Entertainer, George Willborn, Sonya D and Rudy Rush.
This volume presents two episodes from the Def Comedy Jam nine season run. Saucy bad boy Martin Lawrence and ex-MTV VJ Bill Bellamy both give tremendously funny performances as well as Joe Torry, Cedric the Entertainer and others.
