As Dope As They Come

If you don’t remember the show “Uptown Comedy Club” you are sleeping. I swear to god, this show had the best rap performances ever. The show only lasted a year or two, but that was more then enough time to host some classic material.
This clip is indeed some classic material. Grand Puba lighting up the stage with some “360° What Goes Around”. Yo JR, how are you feeling about his get up?
Big thanks to Doug on the footage.

it’s been so long since i’ve seen this, i’d begun to think i’d dreamed the show up. i also remember pete rock and cl smooth performing t.r.o.y. that and this puba performance are burned into my memory.
good looking out on this one!

uptown comedy club was my shit! i remember they’d have the dirty dozen battles at the end of the show, and i’d remember them shits and start snapping on kids mothers at lunchtime at school!
i remember i told a white kid “your moms so bald, she needs extensions to have naps!” and he’s like “what do extensions have to do with taking naps?”

Poop, further ingraining his name as the 90’s style lord.
I think that’s Jamar running a 91 polo hi tech heater, that we own in both colors, but obviously Pub steals the show, in a half zip pull over with matching cycling hat, extra daps for the matching crest turtleneck jawn peaking underneath and the 91 pegasus down below.
“Bury me with the lo on.”
