I didn't like the interviewer's slant here. Duncan does not have to defend himself or work to anyone. He is not crying about anything and he is not begging Jamie for anything, so why the negative slant?
Yeah, I hate his interviews when he throws in that last question about, should Jamie Foxx give him an opportunity to work with him again? What the hell kind of question is that?
@@flyguy7825I don’t enjoy this interviewer at all. He’s not very good. Always trying to sound salacious with these left field questions.
@@kayb6803 Exactly. His tone too is way off but Chris Duncan is a legit good man. I think he knew exactly where the interviewer was going and he didn't take the bait at all. I wish more people would be like him and not fall for it.
@@flyguy7825I'll put it like this He's never had a period during his acting career after the show where he's not been working He's been on multiple shows including one where he's the main character as the president of The USA He's done a couple of movies and I believe he's the also done some voice acting, The problem is people have always tried to trap him inside of a box as an actor and he never fit the box
Agreed. And Duncan reminds me of how some people think that some of the artist from back in the day (Singers and actors) must have fallen off just because we don’t SEE them. MANY (Not all) of those artist are making the real money by working behind the scenes and laying low on MANY different projects. Just check the credits on TV shows and on some of the musical artists production credits. See who the writers, producers and directors are. And others have ventured off into the tech world. Just because we don’t see them doesn’t mean they ain’t out here. We see their work and just don’t know it’s THEM. 💪🙌
He is an Amazing Actor in his own right, and not hating on Jamie… why is the interviewer attempting to put him as a hater. He has a mutual respect for his fellow actor..
This is the reason I will not finish the interview smh wth
That's what niggas do
I picked up on that too! Trying hard to manufacture some ish. Put some more respect on Mr. Duncan's name please.
Absolutely! You're 100% on the money and he does that with a lot of people. His interviews can't stand them as an interviewer. He loves to try and race bait. He loves to try to start s*** that just simply isn't there. He's absolutely right. Chris Duncan has been working legitimately every year since the Jamie Foxx show has been off the air for 20 plus years. The reason he didn't make it as big as Jamie Foxx did. It all comes down to timing, opportunities and so so forth that you are afforded. Jamie Foxx always came across as someone who is multi-talented and he was also a hustler. He has his hand in so many different avenues the cream will always rise to the top.
Yea i felt like he was actively trying to have him complete with Jamie’s success. Kind of corny. However, some of the questions are valid… i didn’t know he was still actively working. But he answered the questions perfectly.
Hes like 99% of actors.. He gets his money low-key and aint in the media looking for clout.
Exactly it works out for him He doesn't have to deal with all the b******* but I still say he deserves his time in the spotlight and to have his acting be acknowledged for once instead of looking at his coworker from one TV show he did over 20 years ago instead of finding out what's his new project
People confuse popularity with earning money. Just bc ur known doesn't mean ur making money (We se it ALLLLLL the time).
"cash before fame"
@@majesticprep2571 JB smooth being a prime example
Christopher seems like the kind of person who doesn't care about fame and praise. He's been able to work consistently, which is a sign of his professionalism and dedication as an actor.
I hear that's the aim of a successful actor: consistent work.
That’s a thing thing most these channels do now days to create more content
A lot of sitcom actors are like this. Sometimes the funniest character is the most seasoned actor, then they get typecast.
@@maximusprime3459 I didn't pay attention to that until this year, when I think it was Marlon Wayans that said it, or a well known comedian that said it on 'Pierre's Panic Room' !!!
The interviewer sounds messy
That interviewer was a complete tool! Brother Christopher showed how cold he was from the way he smoothed curved around the messy questioning! Well played sir! Total professional!💯💪🏿
Facts
This dude always instigating in his interviews
Correct
Comedy Hype always trying to start some drama. Christopher's answers were awesome.
Yeah, the interviewer was trying his best to instigate. Terrible questions.
Mines you of that Vlad person huh. SMDH
😂💯 smh
CH has definitely shifted their agenda, moving into fabricated angles on gossip and nonsense.
Yeah I peeped homie fishing
Bruh, to the interviewer respect this helluva actor and quit asking him dumb azz questions. This man is a part of my childhood.
He's lame.
We got a bonified thespian here and ges getting asked questions about another mans career. Missed opportunity to get insider, nitty gritty details of how to be a professional actor. Christopher is a class act.
Exactly or what project he's going to be doing next maybe cuz I want to know, last thing I saw him in was his show where he was playing the president of the United States
Fr, Dude asking questions is fumbling this section of the interview.
Agree. The questions made me very uncomfortable. At one point, I thought he was going to flat-out ask, "why are you no longer relevant?". So many missed opportunities to look into the world of this brilliant actor.
@@ReginaDillardHe's not irrelevant He's still working He currently has two projects on Apple TV one is about Kevin Durant forgot what the other one's about they came out this year, He's been constantly working for years since the Jamie Foxx show he's always been working mostly guest star appearances / voice acting and he's been a part of the main cast on a couple of shows Veronica Mars being the third show he was a main character on The district being the second
Yea you nailed it! He shows his professionalism the way he handled this interviewer. If he were insecure or thirsty he mighta snapped like a diva!
Him and Jamie chemistry was unreal on that show smh
Absolutely because he can play off of Jamie's humor perfectly. Jamie's humor was always rooted and mean spirited and making fun of people but his character on the show. Braxton P. Was a perfect ying to his yang
@@flyguy7825 Jamie was funny he wasn’t mean…but Braxton would definitely check him in grown man kinda square way..but they both work very well together I put that show up there with Martin and fresh prince..might even be better
Or;
' Jamie's and his chemistry was.... '
depending on how blessed you were in
your path to education.
Chris in Original Gangstas proved without a doubt he had hella range and I respect his talent despite what anybody thinks
ahhhh broHAM😎
I'm your son, you created me & now you wanna kill me? (final scene)
He's amazing actor just like my crush Jamie
I hate that movie but seen it a hundred times lol
@@heavyproductions6058😂☝🏿
Why is the interviewer discounting this man's talent. He is so strong he stands on his own. Just because you did not watch his show doesn't mean he is not successful in his own right.
The interviewer asked all the wrong questions. He's not Jamie Foxx, every man has their own path and Duncan seemed quite comfortable on the path he went on while at the same time happy for Jamie. I'd have liked to hear more of what Duncan was up to than all the Jamie questions.
All these interviewers are instigators looking to generate animosity and controversy. It’s disgusting.
Yes indeed. Missed opportunities from the interviewer
Exactly!!!!
Terrible interview questions with no regard for the fact that the interviewee has his own career
@@officialrengokukyojuro 💯💯
Christopher and Jamie are both talented. Why would the interviewer compare and ask such condescending questions.
I am so disappointed with this interviewer’s lack of decorum and trying the “gotcha” moment. Bravo, Mr. Duncan, for taking the high road.
Big Ups to Christopher for speaking a future collab with Jamie into existence.
I can see him playing Malcolm X
I love his Love & Respect for Jamie. I understood & felt EVERYTHING he said. Those two together would be amazing in a Dramedy🥰 Respect Mr. Duncan on your craft & beautiful words.👏👏👏💐💐💐
I think that would be amazing
Duncan understood the motive of the interview, and that was to create issues that Duncan had with Foxx, and there were no issues. Duncan was trying to get a check just like Jaimie. If there was no project involved, there was no need to reunite. They were co-workers, not necessarily all co-workers are friends.
@@kevinharris3993 true I just looked through his filmology and found out he's been a guest star on just about every popular cop show in the past 20 years in a couple of other popular shows as well including his own show where he's the main character as the president ,He currently has two projects on Apple TV one coming out later this year
Of course he won’t speak bad about Jamie because he knows y’all would criticize him.
Mr Duncan is incredibly talented. Truly under-rated.
Yes he is
Yeah that's Because
It's will Smith...
Look it up....
A true masterclass of the
interviewee saving the interview
by standing in his truth.
Someone had to save it.
I hate that term his truth or her truth it’s either the truth or it’s not so what he did, was what tell the truth
Yeah ... Because I hate the way this guy asks questions all the time
Duncan reminds me of how some people think that some of the artist from back in the day (Singers and actors) must have fallen off just because we don’t SEE them. MANY (Not all) of those artist are making the real money by working behind the scenes and laying low on MANY different projects.

Just because we don’t see them doesn’t mean they ain’t out here. We see their work and just don’t know it’s THEM. 💪🙌
He's a LEGEND in in the black community
🤣🤣🤣🤣 shame on this wack interviewer for trying to get Chris Duncan to say something negative about Jamie Foxx and his career. Chris Duncan has been working faithfully in show business ever since the Jamie Foxx show went off the air. His most notable role was probably The District where he did play a cop and he played that part very well. I would encourage you all to watch him in that show. He was really good. The show didn't last all that long but he was an important part of it. I really hate this channel when they start to try and racebait and try to start s*** out of nothing. Jamie Foxx was always hustling in show business in terms of getting opportunities and making opportunities for himself. I never thought much of him as a comedian but as an actual actor, performer and a musician he was always spot on but the Jamie Foxx show the first two years of it was actually pretty good towards the end it really got hokey.
Wack interviewer
It really did
I just looked up this Man’s IMDB and he has a huge body of work and still is relevant today. So he’s still doing his thing. It may not be as major as what Jaime’s doing but he definitely didn’t fell off. So y’all need to give this man his respect.
Braxton was hilarious! 😂
😂😂😂😂
Fosho
I love this character. What I liked about his character was that he was 100% real and he was real to himself. I never forget the episode where he finally revealed his feelings for the mail lady who was white and everybody was giving him flack for it and he stood up as a man and said I don't care what anybody says. I like you and I'm going to be with you
😂 especially when he used to get frustrated.
He felt like a Carlton knockoff.
I always liked him! So glad to hear from him now!
Yeah he was funny asf
He's so deserving of more shows....they need him on Chicago Fire or PD
He was on an episode of Chicago PD, but as a bad guy!
i do remember now. Thanks@@stevo1229
I don’t know…..Voight doesn’t share any spotlights. He needs all the camera time 😂❤
Yes he is the thug
Agree
He’s still active. Excellent actor with amazing range
The fact that Christopher went from comedy to a serious cop show makes total sense... Because his character in the Jaime show was more of a straight-lace guy... He was serious and did have a tuff look to him, and a strong voice. If somebody would have asked me back then what kind of characters do I think he will play... I would probably have said tuff guy roles...
Do a little more research. He didn't go from comedy to drama. He played serious roles way before he was on the Jamie Foxx Show. No to mention, Broadway. Research him, it's free 🤷🏾♂️
Original Gangstas came out before the Jamie Foxx show.
I want to see him and Jamie in a drama together
That would be good asf
It seemed like the person conducting the interview wanted something more salacious. Like the man answered the question like "I respect his work" and this niqqa was like "yeah but do you wanna run da fade cuz you wasn't in Annie?" 😂😂😂😂😂
The interviewer seems to be instigating -- attempting to stir up hostility and resentment where there is none. I am glad that Duncan didn't take the bait.
At some point, the "interviewers" for Comedy Hype will "shift" out of their sophomoric stage.
That Jamie vs. Braxton "Dance Battle" scene was CLASSIC !!! I'ma go watch it now !!!
The interviewer wanted to create the narrative that his roles died out after the show was cancelled. After he debunked that he had to stick to his guns by saying the "perception" was. Nobody was thinking about that.
Except him! He sounds like he’s barely 25 disregarding this man’s career like that.
You can see Christopher's whole heart! His genuine love for his craft and his respect for his fellow artists come across beautifully. He's currently in SWAGGER doing an amazing job!! My baby girl is on the same show as a co-star. He's a class act!!
Swagger is a damn good show too.
@Kushington_KMC YES IT IS!!! It's so underrated!!
I applaud Christopher B Duncan for staying true to who he is...he's a class act..it's almost like the interviewer wanted him to bash Jamie..what was the angle here for real Comedy Hype?
Nothing but respect for this man.
Unlike the interviewer.
These people are not prepared to do actual interviews. What research are you doing? He just said he never stopped working. Just because your mental range can’t go past a comedy show doesn’t mean that drama wasn’t being watched and clearly it was for years. He shouldn’t have done this interview or at least done his research because this is ignorant as hell.
Well said. I would expect that if the Interviewer (who’s the Owner of Comedy Hype) had time in front of a talent, they should at the very least do a Google search on the person they booked for a convo. Christopher even said that a simple IMDB search would answer that dumb question.
He's very meticulous with his choice of wording. A very keen awareness. Instead of saying always love between Jamie and himself. He chooses to say mutual respect.
I like that.
Interviewer was getting on my nerves a lil
This interviewer needs to be fired
Yeah his voice is really irritating
THIS JOKER DONT DO INTERVIEWS … HE DO INTERROGATIONS !!!
Ye he’s not good. Don’t want him to lose his job, but he ain’t it
Right fire his ass. Stay on topic mf. It seems like u deliberately try to stop him from finishing his points.
He’s humble!
You guys should have interviewed Jamie. This interview was for the guest.
I loved 😍 him on The Jamie Foxx show. This man is so wonderful and brilliant. I can listen to him talk all day. He is such a well accomplished actor and is so thoughtful and well spoken. 🎉🎉🎉
I would love a movie with them 2
_My 1st thought was, He would be Great doing Voice Overs, and he said that was one of his projects. Also, it seems like the Interviewer kept trying to Down Play his Skills with his Questioning?_
I'm going to have to look up his filmology and see what he's done voices for, I don't like this interviewer he always does this He's always trying to stir the pot when it's unnecessary, we want to find out more about Chris what he's been doing through the years why haven't we seen him or if we did what shows or movies what's his current project who would he like to work with next
“I’d be appreciative if you look at my resume!!!” - I’m using this from now on for real 😂‼️
Yes Mr. Duncan just say it. You didn't sell your soul.😮
He’s beloved and don’t even know it
That episode of the Dance-off was classic.
Oh yeah when they were roommates Jamie was a terrible roommate
When he was fed up and broke the glass to put the glove on😭 lmaoooo
@@nimbusquest1730 "That's it. Jamie you've gone too far"...Lol.
I forgot what Jamie did.
@@drew63215 🤣🤣 i think jamie either put on the thriller jacket or started dancing to mj music lml
@@nimbusquest1730 No it was Braxton that put on the Beat It jacket and put the glove on...Lol
Braxton in a vampire movie says it all. I hope Hollywood sees this 😅
😳 This is why Comedy Hype still can’t get to a million subscribers after all those years; they keep instigating drama in our Black community with their content and questions just like this Interviewer or Pierre. Even the comedy community don’t respect Comedy Hype. And most comments here say the same thing about their negativity.
And they call Vlad messy... Smh
This guy has done lots of television. He's not starving 🥂💪🏾
I would love to see Jaime and Chris playing Detectives in a buddy cop film.
Good idea but I doubt we'll see anything like that.
It would definitely be ill
Christophers' acting is amazing! I hate the questions asked of him here.😢❤❤❤❤❤
I didn’t like the line of questioning here. Like this man need a hand out
Quit using hand out as a term of shame, when the business world picks and chooses who it lends a HAND UP TO… Every successful person is surrounded by a team.
yeah dont like where it seemed he was trying to go with that
💯
Truth. Chris has tons of success but it would be nice to see jamie produce a big film and insist he and chris be stars in it. I think it would be very successful
I absolutely love the grace in which Christopher handled this interview. This was such a great opportunity to interview a well respected and extremely talented man. A moment to give him his flowers. What a lost opportunity on the interviewer's part. You can still get an amazing interview without attempting to pit another actor against his fellow actor.
It's like the interviewer is not listening to his answers. Every question is like hey man, why do you suck now? He says that he working man!!!!
he also appeared as an obama like POTUS in a comedy called first family in 2012. not the greatest show but he truly put in a lot of work
Yep I remember that
@@darrylbrumfield7659thanks guys I did not remember the name of that show that was bothering me think I'm going to watch that tonight
Mr. Duncan is an incredible actor. Love his work
These questions 😂. Great job Mr. Christopher.
He is amazing..hes been in ao many tv and movie projects..consistently working for years ...i salute mr Duncan!!!
A comedy/action film with him and Jamie would be fire.
This interview reminds me of when I was younger and would go fishing and not only did i not catch a fish, i didn't even get a bite.
I don't agree with the interviewer saying OUR perception is we don't see Christopher Duncan. I actually see him on random shows/commercials ALOT and I don't even watch much TV. He is the DEFINITION of a working actor
He has the voice to do what Jaleel white, my man from living single, and keith david and get a continuous bag like them
Exactly that voice acting money ain't no joke and sometimes you end up with residual money from one role I know Kyle from living a single I don't remember his name sorry is still making money from the God of war games, Keith David is still making money from his multiple voice acting roles He did the voice of Spawn He did Goliath those are his most known also the shows he's been on and been one of the main characters I loved him in Greenleaf and I think he has another project on the way
Dude was funny as a mug on the Jamie Fox Show, He can play a nerd and a gangster well.
He made this interview...❤
I like 👍 how he's using his words. Very articulate and well spoken 👏🏾
I know Chris from the Commercial world . Chris is a VERY nice and talented guy!
You're a good actor we should see you in more. My fave when you and Jamie were in Mark Coopers driving class and he had the military uniform on the play off between you three in that class room is hilarious 😄 Your idea about a film between you and Jamie, yeah we'd like to see that. Sounds great. Hollywood needs more original script writers. Black script writers.
Loved the way Mr. Duncan played his role in this interview great poise and common sense displayed… 💯
See, this is how you handle a question about past co-workers and previous job situation. Very well said
I love his range, but he was amazing on The District. ❤. This man is a class act. Stop digging for dirt that isn't there. He's wonderful in everything he does, and he has a long list of accomplishments.
I'll always remember the dance battle between him and jamie on the Jamie Foxx Show 😂💀...classic
😂watched that like 10 mins ago thats crazy
@@BraylonOTF 😅 I laugh everytime
This man has 85 roles outside of the Jamie Foxx show. That's amazing within itself.
This man is not only an amazing actor but a man of character. Also… I forgot how amazing his voice is.
This a halfway disrespectful interview. It's like since he didn't do anything we watched we shouldn't count what he actually did do.
Christopher is a class act🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🩵🩵🩵
Christopher, you're a class act my guy!!! You're just as great as any brother.
This brother is a class act when it comes to creativity. The brother is telling the truth, he been working long after the Jamie Fox show. Salute
I believe Jamie foxx is going to get with him eventually. He did great work on The Jamie Foxx show and original gangstas my two favorite with him.
He gotta play Will Smith in a documentary.
Took the words right out of my mouth
@@echarialogunnubi1918he too knocked kneed!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Damn that’s crazy I can’t unsee it now! 😂
This is a great interview that I didn't know I wanted to see
Wow, Chris was so gracious with the interviewer
INTERVIEWER IS ALWAYS WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO FINISH THEIR ANSWER SO HE CAN ANSWER THE NEXT QUESTION
Not all actors act for fame. Some do it for the art.
He is in his right mind! He is articulate and in good health. Also he is legendary. All that matters ❤
Perspectives.....from your eyes don't always line up with someone's REALITY👍🏾💯
He had a great career. There's no point in comparing. Actors have it super difficult. Any performing arts role in music or acting etc is difficult to land. It's hard to live as a performer as well. Sometimes in beauracy and sometimes it's just talent. But Jamie Foxx was on "In living Color" and "def comedy Jam" he had a different path.
Exactly two programs that were highly popular and got his name out there, Duncan had his own path but was slowed down he ended up type cast even though he has a dynamic range of acting talent every role he's done since the show he put in the work He's shown what he can do He can be more than a comedic actor He can play serious roles He can do drama That's Hollywood you can have all that acting talent and Still be ignored sometimes you can have suck ass talent and be a superstar
I dont think he's comparing but like figuring out WHY Jaime grew and he didn't. Despite me not really being a fan of this interviewer, he's trying to figure things out.
Yeah, but it's still annoying. Like Jamie was on In Living Color, which launched a lot of careers, and The Jamie Foxx Show was basically another showcase for Jamie. Helped make Garcelle Beauvais more of a household name, too, if people didn't remember seeing her in other stuff prior.@@KrisBryant99 That show was a vehicle for Jamie to showcase his talents. It's not that other folks didn't get to show what they had, but it was his namesake. Garrett Morris was on the downside of his great career. Others were there for work, it wasn't necessarily a launching pad for others in the way this interviewer believed it should be. Jamie showcased the piano work and eventually got Ray. But it was he who went into film. Some people go to Hollywood, some go to Broadway, others are somewhere on TV, and still others may never be known.
Not every show is going to be gasoline on a person's career.
I'm glad this Actor is working and working well
Duncan is talented in his own right!!!! Love his acting.....✊🏽
A class act! Such a diverse actor! He stay in something!
That interviewer was not sure what to ask him. 😢😢
He seems so down to earth. Glad hollywood didn't corrupt him. They were perfect on the show, would love a move with both of em starring
Love this guy...who keeps it real like that.
I LOVE Christopher B. Duncan and Brian Hooks craft, they are the most creative and artistic brothers in the industry. Exceptional actors just like their other brother Jamie Foxx. Those 2 are dynamic together, I still watch the show till this day and my family. Much love to you Christopher B. Duncan however this could have been a way better had the interviewer did his homework, this would have been a masterpiece, master class of Christopher who have studied his craft and gives it every time we watch him on film, movies and tv. God bless you Christopher B. Duncan, I sincerely love you brother.🙏🏽💞
Versatile
Questions are nasty.
I like the fact he shows love and respect to Jamie no hate in this man’s blood
Absolutely love Christopher Duncan. Very intelligent and very intellectual. A hater he is not. And it is sad how the interviewer tries to pull that type of rhetoric out him. But he did not bend to the interviewers deception. That is intelligence and patience, and that's what an extordinary actor does. Just because he's not seen doesn't mean he's not hard at work. He knows the definition of " it is what it is"😊
Do yo thang Chris💝
I see where Chris B is coming from when it comes to the producers
