"Support black businesses". Let's not let that integral message of Mr. Wright's, slip under the tremendously hilarious, marvelous talent of this video.
I work at Wal-Mart. I got over 100 phone calls asking if we had this pie in stock because of this video. This is the best free publicity I've ever seen!
Zeph Ballentine two years later and I'm still laughing. I just saw him on an episode of "Tamar and Vince". I was like isnt that the guy that did that Patti pie youtube video like two years ago. I remember it being two years ago) cuz i was stuck in the bed on a weekend watching youtube and 4 months pregnant and in pain from a toothache that they refused to work on since i was pregnant, so i missed thanksgiving w/my family and my husband and i stayed in on thanksgiving, he could have gone to be with his family or mine but he stayed in with me. I vowed to never miss another thanksgiving again. Just last week thanksgiving - now i have a toothache again, but didn't miss thanksgiving. Sorry off subject, but yeah he's really gotten his foot in the door in only two years to be traveling and best friends w/ Tamar. I should have done a video like this so i could be bff's w/ celebs, lol.
Tater pies are a simple pleasure but her cobblers have too much sugar for my taste. Reminds me of the amounts used in store bakeries in their items and is the reason any concoction I whip together will at least have a control on the sugars for this 64 yr old.
I brought this pie to England to share with my family during our British Thanksgiving, and it was a hit. My sister's partner doesn't care for sweet potatoes but he went back for seconds. It's still a hit in 2023 👌🏾
This video is proof that one does not need a great quality camera and perfect setup to make a successful video. James's personality makes the whole video. I just noticed this video is called "My Review On Patti LaBelle sweet potato pie *review*".
Depressed and nervous over an upcoming surgery, somehow I ran across this video and got one of the best laughs ever!! Much needed boost in January 2020!🤗😆❤😙
Watching this in November 2023, while eating a slice of Patti Pie! I'll never forget the madness at Walmart while trying to secure a pie for Christmas 2015. 😊😁 Good times, good memories. ❤ This video is a reminder of when the holidays were a happy time in my life. 💫
My fiance and I are literally eating two pieces of a sweet potato Patti Pie right now and pulled up this fantastic video to mark the occasion. Thank you, sir. This is happiness. 🥧
Can't get enough of this video. So upsetting at first Patti didn't acknowledge what he did for the sales of this pie and had to be shamed into give him credit.
Who's watching in 2020? I've come via the Legends Ball, the husband on Oprah, and the Christmas Special. What's your favourite Miss Patti moment on CZcams? Gonna look for the Prince tribute...
They were just talking about you on NPR. I really hope Patti cut you a check cuz these damn things are sold out all the way through Christmas. The factory can't even make them fast enough. "All sold ooouuutttt...why did it end this way?"
The key point to this video is to "Support black businesses, Black folks"! We need to grow our economic power! James Wright said it clear in this video @1:14
E Smith No shit Sherlock, you still not understanding. At least it's a start. Of course it will be a lot better if Patti sold her pies at a black only market, but it would not reach a lot of consumers, duh!
+JohnnyClockdaone Just be careful in this statement. A bunch of big-time executives somewhere just paid Patti a licensing fee to put her name on a pie. 99% of the profit isn't going to Patti most likely. Same with George Foreman.. he put his name on a grill and Salton made most of the money... George made a lot too.. but people need to understand licensing before they jump buying products just because a person has their name on them...
You’re the only reason why I purchased many Patti Labelle Pies!! I love me some Patti Labelle!! But, you made the pie look tempting!! I went to Walmart that next day!! You need to get paid!!!!! My entire family wanted Patti Pies because of you!!!!!!! You’re a Star Sweetie!!! You need to be in Advertising!! You should never ever have to buy anything in Walmart again!!!
I can't believe I'm only now watching this video the whole way through, and damn have I been missing out. This will definitely be on my top pick of things to watch when I need a big smile on my face and laughter in my belly.
But what I really wanna know... did Katrina ever pick that damn pie up?! “Onnn my ownnn, why did it end this wayyyyy” 🤣😂😂😂 I’m not gonna lie I started singing once I ate that damn pie too!
I worked an 8 hr shift at Walmart yesterday, and I had about 50 ppl ask me about this pie. There were tears, tantrums, and a group prayer. "Dear Almighty God, please lead us to these pies. Our feet hurt & we can't take much more." #notplayin
March 2024 and James still has me crying laughing.
He sold the shit out of Patti's Pies.
Right I was saying the saying the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
Still. Lmao. Every time I can't open a package I think of him saying, "whatchu seal this bitch with, Gorilla Glue?" 😂😂😂
Me too 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i wonder if its still at the store?
December 2021, I’m dying laughing 🤣 I can’t😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
This man single-handily sold Patti’s pie!!
I was literally about to comment the same thing 😂

That voice gave me AIDS, heartburn and good credit!
+Karinda Mckenzie what does he have to do with this...lol
+tremellk B.O.B also stands for Black Owned Businesses
Let’s be honest….no one was checking for these pies until James came along! He made us all go get a pie just because of this video for sure 💯💯💯
FACTS 😂😂
That's not true, my friends buy them often
If that was the case they would stop making it.
True but the pie is not even as good as he made it seem
Sealing with gorilla glue has a whole new meaning now
Gorilla glue girl
Lol
Indeed
I work at Wal-Mart. I got over 100 phone calls asking if we had this pie in stock because of this video. This is the best free publicity I've ever seen!
Nicee
I also worked at Walmart at that time. Everyday I got that same question?
How are you doing
"Patti what you seal this bitch with gorilla glue?" Loooool
the shade of getting into this..lol..
+TycoonJin I died laughing at that. Hell this entire video killed me. lmao
Lmfaoooooooo
Omg ,too funny
lmaoooo
This is a must-watch for every Thanksgiving.
Factss every time the holidays roll around I think about this video
That's exactly why I'm watching it now.
Thanksgiving 2021 🦃
Literally watching this thanksgiving morning 2021 😂😂😂
Christmas too.
Can’t believe this video is over 7 years old. It’s still the best. I died then. It is just as hilarious today!
A year later and I'm still HOLLERING 😂😂
Zeph Ballentine two years later and I'm still laughing. I just saw him on an episode of "Tamar and Vince". I was like isnt that the guy that did that Patti pie youtube video like two years ago.

3 years later and I’m still obsessed 😂
He's happy lol
ZEPH OKAYY LOL 😂
This is for when you need to smile immediately.
FR FR!!! 💯💯
How did you know!!! I'm here crying wanting a baby
Tater pies are a simple pleasure but her cobblers have too much sugar for my taste. Reminds me of the amounts used in store bakeries in their items and is the reason any concoction I whip together will at least have a control on the sugars for this 64 yr old.
Exactly!
Agreed!
Watching this has become a 5-year running Thanksgiving tradition.
FACTS!!!
Same!!! This and the vegan thanksgiving rap. I always go looking for them in November
I brought this pie to England to share with my family during our British Thanksgiving, and it was a hit. My sister's partner doesn't care for sweet potatoes but he went back for seconds. It's still a hit in 2023 👌🏾
I die everytime he says "on my own...why did it end this way" lol never gets old
I can't listen to the song without hearing him Singing that part 😂🤣😂🤣
😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂Yessssss
@@XxStrattaGxX leaving it on 314 likes 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I’m weak!!!!!!!!!
She didn't even need an ad campaign after this... He covered it for her.. This is the most hilarious video on the internet
This video is proof that one does not need a great quality camera and perfect setup to make a successful video. James's personality makes the whole video.
I just noticed this video is called "My Review On Patti LaBelle sweet potato pie *review*".
Well this was 5 years ago. technology has gotten better
And it seems it will 'turn' you
Amen... and it's just so authentic and real
💯
Thanks Captain obvious lol 😂
Depressed and nervous over an upcoming surgery, somehow I ran across this video and got one of the best laughs ever!! Much needed boost in January 2020!🤗😆❤😙
Glad it brought you some joy. 🙌😃
Same thing in May 2021! 😆
Upcoming "simple" procedure.
This video, and James are SO much fun!

She did at knowledge him, people just misinterpreted what she said about him!

This is one of the best things ever
Why am I watching this, laughing and now wanting a Pattie Pie in 2023

2020 and still watching you.
The key point to this video is to "Support black businesses, Black folks"! We need to grow our economic power! James Wright said it clear in this video @1:14
+JohnnyClockdaone Right, because Walmart is a "black business" *heavy sarcasm*
E Smith No shit Sherlock, you still not understanding. At least it's a start. Of course it will be a lot better if Patti sold her pies at a black only market, but it would not reach a lot of consumers, duh!
+JohnnyClockdaone That doesn't make sense and that wasn't the point of this video.
+E Smith yes it does too, speak what you know.
+JohnnyClockdaone Just be careful in this statement.

Who’s watching this before the Verzus battle.?
I'm back in Sept 2020 because this video gives me life every single time I watch.
“Pattie so moist” 🤭😂😂
I think that's why Patti didn't like his video at first... cause he was referring to her as the pie
@@DeadChocobo but it wasn't intentional, right?
I "just" tried her pie the other day...now I see why he was singing like that.
LOL~~~!!!!
Feb 2023 and this is still giving me life!!!😭🥧
Still watch every single year! You’re an icon James ❤️
Make me want some Patti Labelle pie. They need to cut you a check, because I didn't know Patti sold pies until this video.
yesterday was the 1st day.
Pattie Labelle has a cook book out . Been put for yrs. But her retail pies are new !!!
So true, girl! Me, either!
Right! I don't even like sweet potato pies much and I want one
