The Only White Comedian for a Black Crowd
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 04. 2021
- Comedian Dustin Nickerson (me!) doing stand up at the at at Keep You Distance Comedy with KevOnStage. And yes, I was the one white comedian there for (mostly) black crowd.
That aside, had a blast making fun of Tahir Moore, doing some crowd work, talking about White Boy Summer, finding some comedy with the Lil Nas X story, and being a white comedian with the last name Nickerson.

Lets all live our life like that one woman in the crowd.
She got on my damn nerves
@@Poe-007 If I was a comedian she would be my best friend when I’m on that stage😂😂😂
@@seananthony7494 - that’s awesome bub
It's a dude
Right..she is having a great time😄😄😄
You need to pay that laughing lady to come to every one of your shows.
Maybe he already does. :)
I came here in search of this very response 😅
One hundred percent.
Damn, just follow me around laughing at my bad jokes, confusing everyone around me about whether or not they're funny.
Facts
The laughing lady just proves to me that black women really are a national treasure. Im white and I came to this realization my first day in Virgina when a older black lady at the store handed me my receipt and I said " have a good day " and she responded "thANK you baby!". I was 29 and felt like a little boy lol
Black women are the best.
That story was gayer than 8 dudes blowing 9 dudes😂
Back in my hometown, I would regularly go to Popeye's chicken for lunch. There was this older black lady that would take orders most of the time. After maybe three visits she would recognize my voice and remember my order. She would say, come around baby I gotcha. I miss going there lol
Like chocolate milkshakes, the thicker and browner, the better haha
@@pravkdey if you always had milk as a kid and one day you had chocolate milk….”it would change ya life” 🤯
Damn that Nickerson joke landed hard. The crowd loved it.
Anyone in particular?
@@johnspalding Yeah... the crowd.
@@johnspalding yeah. That one lady with the amazing laughter 😂
The crowd?
Stuck the landing like a boss... and then the budget Gary Owen pulled out 10's from all judges
Respect to this vanilla brother, just unapologetically Ned Flanders the Comedian
FLANDERS!!!! LMFAO YO THAT’S WILD
LMAOOOOOO
Omg he does look like Ned xD
You just made me realize the Simpsons actually need a movie with humans, lmao.
I can't unsee this now.
Brother looks like a 90s sitcom dad, and the crowd loves him 😂
Ned Flanders😊
@@sab0nes Yeah, I was thinking more like the (clueless) neighbor on a Tyler Perry comedy.
Oh my god, nothing but respect for this dude, he recognized the dynamic, he owned the absolute shit out of the awkwardness, 11/10
@Ben Ashley-Schaack…where was the awkwardness?
@@be3933 come on, you're not that out of touch with social dynamics to see what it is?
If you are then you should go expose yourself to different people and I don't mean different races I meant people of different culture, people who live differently than you, people who were raised differently than you and people who act differently than you inside their homes. This isn't some conspiracy about hate and everybody being different is bad. Difference is a what make us stronger, that is how we get the beautiful cultures we have, especially in food. This isn't food, I just like food.
White and black crowds at a comedy show are 2 completely different dinamics...jokes that work in one setting don't hit the same in the other
races are not the same, and will never mix
Please don't use God's name as a cuss word
"There's never been a more important K in history!" Hilarious.
“You wear tight clothes and.... YOU’RE BIG.”😂😂😂
Being a big man I felt that. 😀
The net on a ham
@@HankAaronJoseph19 bruh 😭
He led with that..I actually spit water out not expecting an banger like that..
Dude in the front row had nuggets while the guy in the back had a whole rooster.
This comment is one of the best on CZcams
Underrated af
Jeezuz I'm dieing over here
fucking hell you broke me
😂😂😂👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿😭😭😭👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
"Nothing says my parents stayed together like 'the mask is a nightmare" That's my favorite line in this whole clip. Holy shit...
Dude has talent. Was authentic to himself and had that crowds attention.
I don't agree...I think he was completely disingenuous with the whole mask and gun dumbass argument...that was pandering at it's best and que cards from every major network before he hit the stage.
He combined the looks of Logic, Ned Flanders and Macklemore.
All white men interesting
@@anguishedcarpet lol logic is biracial
@@milesr2276 that was my joke
@@milesr2276 ty for noticing tho
@@anguishedcarpet lol
This shit is hilarious & the lady dying in the crowd made it ten times funnier. I have tears in my eyes!
I swear thats a guy in the back ground 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Heck no i had to change the video lol because that lady laugh too hard and in the wrong timing wtf
Love that lady's laugh!!
No doubt that lady had my laughing from her laugh
I wanted her to have a stroke 😂
His comedic timing and self awareness is incredible lol. Jokes landed perfectly 😂
That lady’s laughter made me laugh more than his jokes
No, that’s just the thing that makes live stand-up so irresistible. I lived in NYC in the mid-eighties and became addicted to it. Almost every weekend for two years straight; sometimes twice a week. Comedy is just better in a room full of receptive people.
Euro Guy 85 I couldn't agree more 👌
She was rollin' 🤣😂
Fucking annoyed the hell out of me
Plot twist: That infectious laugh is actually coming from a 300-pound man.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's literally what I thought happened
Dam....are u serious??? 😄😄😄😄
Just pictured it. 😂😂😂😂😭😭
Lmao
The girl laughing multiplies the humor by like 200%
200% as in twice?
@@sublime9525 would be if humor was something that came in individualized chunks, but the value assigned to humor is less distinct.
That was Kev
I've been to shows where the comedian was on fire BUT there were no "good" laughers so the energy was just so-so so the show was good but not as good as it should've been.
I've been to comedy shows where the comedians where on the newer side and their set wasn't as solid I guess you could say, but there were people who came there to laugh and laugh big in the audience and without a doubt it made the show 100% better.
The audience makes the show. I've heard brilliant, devastatingly good jokes done to poor crowds and nothing happens and it sucks and I've seen just okay comics tell just okay jokes to a great crowd and suddenly everyone in the room needs an ambulance because their sides hurt from laughing so hard.
I feel bad for comedians who walk onto a stage in front of a shit audience but I'm so happy when newer comedians get on stage and they murder because the audience was there for them.
Even if you bought the tickets, before a comedy show ask yourself if you're in the mood to laugh. Can you see yourself letting yourself go and letting yourself have a great time? If not, maybe don't go.
Your fellow audience members without saying it are leaning on you a lot of times in a weird way.
I hope to be half as wonderful as this lady who is laughing her tits off. She should be a professional audience member, and I mean that sincerely. If I was doing comedy I would pay her to come with me to set the crowd on fire so my jokes are more likely to land.
It sounds more like a recorded laugh track - the same people, the same laughs. I don't like laugh tracks.
“An acoustic guitar song about a river.” Haha 😂
That dude was pretty funny. Had me laughing my ass off. That joke about "last summer was bad for us" was funny af
Fun fact: If you ever see a big guy with tight clothes, they weren't tight when he bought them.
Listen, we like food. Food just don’t like us.
Our fit is seasonal, okay?
Me in a nutshell
*maybe*
Accurate.
He killed it. You can tell he wasnt tryna put on. He was just being himself. LOVE IT
Exactly, just hilarious!!
I commented he read the room then killled it
That's how you win, just bring yourself. Comedy is universal.
yeah it's cool to see white dude be himself 24/7, i mean i'm white, but, so many white dudes be one way(when it's just whites around) then put on a front when anyone other than white shows up, it's stupid, . and i feel disrespectful, they act like, we all don't see it , but we do, wait, i have to be honest, i didn't until one of the brothers pointed it out to me. but anyways , yeah , i thought i was the only one that noticed that
@@adventuresinmoodcitypod2000 Right!
He was hilarious! So good to see a comedian be authentic to himself and the crowd and still love it
I’ve listened to this a couple of times and the lady in the background is priceless… her laughter is so contagious. Love it !!!
You find me a more important K in history.... Wow dude I'm dead
DEAD.
You gotta land that like Simone Biles lmaooooo
Just make sure it doesn't bring two friends.
Under!
@@mikepaulus4766 😉
i've never heard someone kill so hard for what sounds like a tiny crowd haha. it sounds like there's ten people in the room but everyones laughing their guts out haha
Check out bill burr
@@CannibalOX99 When has Bill Burr performed in front of a tiny crowd like that? We KNOW Bill is hilarious...that wasn't what ol' boy said.
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 lol youtube has some of his old shit. Boom there you go. Internet is a wonderful thing
Well there wasnt many people. This is called keep ur distance for a reason it was during the pandemic. Kev said that the crowds werent big for safety
What a great crowd as small as it is.
Also great set. I haven't laughed that hard at a comedian in awhile.
That lady in the crowd's laugh is contagious, great vibes
The lady just busting up in the background is effing hilarious any comedian would love to have her there she made the show! Haha
Fun fact: That's not a lady 🤣
How do you know?
No they gotta shut up
Imagine if she laughed at all the wrong times like he’s still tryna explain the joke 🤣
No point in going to a comedy club if you're not going to laugh your ass off. It's what you're paying for. And how could you not laugh along with a white comedian poking fun at the biggest black guy within arms reach.
Landing a satan joke to a Christian (black) crowd is awesome. This guy kills
NO SERIOUSLY THO 🤣🤣🤣🤣
(babies)
Because he said white people worship him. And honestly the politicians do
I love how he saved himself after the reparations joke
That lady in the crowd made it 10 x better. Laughter is contagious.
“You gotta stick that like Simone Biles” underrated line
I came to the comments to find this. That joke was perfect!
I dont get it😔
Pretty basic if you ask me. Obvious black crowd joke.
@@ibeg0ht kinda pandery, dry delivery
Why is it underrated it seems like pretty straight forward joke unless theres more to it im not getting.
I applaud your black & white comedy. Its not easy making a black crowd roar like that. You came out the box roasting too. Genius. That Nickerson joke was so 🔥
You picked a weirdly racist way to compliment him.
@@nunliski nothing racist about it at all though lol
@@nightscribenyx Well, yeah, there is, because a "black crowd" doesn't have a different capacity for laughter than any other group of human beings. It's not particularly hateful or anything, but it is weirdly racist to say that it is difficult to make black people laugh. And obviously, it's not true.
@@nunliski Black folk have a little different culture and sense of humor it’s not racist to differentiate that. A lot of white comics have said there’s nothing better than making a black crowd laugh.
@@nunliski it is absolutely rare for a white comedian to make an all black crowd laugh like that. Bill Burr's the only other comedian I've ever seen to even attempt to get on a line with all the other comedians being black. It's not racist at all, just an observation if you watch a lot of comedy. Black people laugh just as much as any other group, but everyone has a different sense of humor, and different groups relate to comedy in different ways sometimes.
You did great and the crowd seemed to love you! This is my first time seeing your comedy. Definitely going to keep watching your comedy.
I just found you in this awesome Comedian rabbit hole I'm in, so glad I did!!😁
Can't wait to see more from you!!
"this guy really likes an acoustic guitar song about a river. And they're right, I DO"
I feel attacked. Me too, buddy. Me too
I feel like we all just got #metoo'd
I love an acoustic guitar song about damn near anything tbh. lol Just out of curiosity.. What song you think he meant?
@@WeekndWarriorrr CCR Proud Mary
@@m.bird. I was thinking Green river
@@m.bird. Proud Mary is about a boat and it's played on an electric.
This is absolutely hilarious! Great job. I’m glad the algorithm put this in my face
ME TOO
Me three!
Me 4! 🎬🎬🎬🎬
I watched Dustin's set so many times on KYD (both times)! 😄😆😅😂
fr
@@DustinNickerson great set
I can't remember the last time I hit subscribe on a comic that fast (the ham net joke). This was wonderful. Thank you, sir.
Wow that was a VERY good set. You were so calm and confident and it paid off.
“ Then what are all them guns for” lmfao 😂🤣 the best joke I’ve heard in a minute. It was so simple, but made such an impact on the thought 👍🏾
Except most gun owners don't actually have a lot of guns for protection. They just like shooting things and blowing stuff up. The "protection" defense is just an excuse to buy as many toys as possible.
Guns actually protect you
Do we really need a gun debate on a comedy video? XD
Yes, because they are always funny...well, maybe not always...sometimes kids have to die...necessary compromise. Overpopulation solution, I guess.
@@joshuastrickland5264 I thought Covid was the overpopulation solution lol at least thats what the internet has told me and the internet never lies
Please name your next special Special K for how important that K is
one more K and we mighta had a problem😭
@@itsvaporx9633 No, no, no...its just 3xs the wholesome goodness. What's all the racket about?!?
I can imagine an inappropriate cereal, a black family sitting down and saying prayers for breakfast...eating triple special K amd breaking prayer to yell out the living room window to the white neighbors. Keep it down!
I dont get it
without it's just Nicer-son
Which dodges the problem altogether
@@bakerfresh i see what u were going for but that doesn’t hit right when written
Europe has better ecstasy, America has better dentistry
Freakin’ hilarious! I’m not a big fan of this style of delivery (cause you have to have the whole package; personality, looks, and jokes) but he nailed it! One of the best sets I’ve seen. I’m a fan.
Nothing says "my parents stayed together" like the mask is a nightmare! Great joke!
Not the net on a ham! I’m screaming 😆🤣😭
"You find me a more important, 'K' in history..."
Damn, that audience is like every comedian's dream crowd. So responsive and effusive towards the jokes! And quite a few of those people that have a really strong, joyful belly-laugh.
The man was telling jokes like his life was hanging on a thread! GREAT JOB! 😂😂😂😂
You ever been to the Apollo Theatre? It might be...
Your set was HILARIOUS!!!! And, yeah, that K gotta be a STRONG K!😂😂😂
You gotta stick it like Simone Bilies 🤣🤣🤣
But not too many of em 👀😂
Facts... the first time in myself I can say I appreciated a K (K is known for bad representatives, i.e. Klan, Kardashians, Killer, etc...)
gotta be a capital k in the middle of the name NicKerson
@@yerrrrrrrr4567 🤣🤣🤣
I love stumbling into a new comedian and the first thing I see is them knocking a room dead. This was awesome!
good job man not to many people have your confidence. that could have bombed so easily and you never lost your cool and your flow and timing was all class bro.
I come back to this set at least once a week bc it makes me laugh so hard.
You’re a hero Bethany!
This is an AMAZING TITLE. 😂😂😂
This is Hella Recent! We are proud of you Kev! Thank you for being a GREAT producer!
Ya Right 🤣🤣🤣
Budget Gary Owen 😂😂😂😂
@KevOnStage please never book Gary Owen again, Dustin Nickerson 4 Life 😂😂😂😂

That *pause between tight clothes and YOU'RE BIG.* He's never been around my family 😂😂😂 yet it's reminiscent of my mom, grandmother and 2 uncle's as they'd deliever it just as dead pan as ever.
It was David Cross esque. he has a little Funke going on. This is a compliment, everyone is somewhat derivative, no one is 100% original
I can't stop laughing at the lady in the crowd, so I don't know how he's keeping it together. 😆😆😆
you popped up on my youtube front page, you great bruh ahahahah love the energy
Shout out to the algorithm and KevOnStage. New comedians getting love
right? Every once in a while youtube hits you with a gem.
He looks like chef Bobby Flay.
It's the random dying audience members for me... 😭😂
With the 70s pornstache... facts!
cooking like bobby flay on the stage
so fucking many crazy-ass laughs in the crowd
i fucking love it, had to pause multiple times
Having stand up programs from all around the world available is one of the best things for me. Hooray for the internet. Good German stand up programs are so rare. Feels like a rain after a few months of drought. ❤
they are DYING in the background
She got on my damn nerves
@@Poe-007 why?
@@NF-xy6br - I’m not sure why, seems too exaggerated to me, maybe he loud ones were feeling really good at the moment.. I dunno, under the influence. That even bothered me as a youngling in school.
@@Poe-007 no trying to sound ignorant but that noise from my culture is a sign that you can come to the cookout.
@@zackcollins3025 oh a hundred percent can come to the cookout. May not be able to bring anything yet but has a front row seat
“What are all those guns for?”
Ooooh that was a bar.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 On point!!
That's funny...partly because I've got a Bushmaster Carbon 15, Romanian AK47, Mossburg 500 pistol grip, Glock 22 4th Generation, Star 9mm, and a SLING SHOT!😂
The guns keep me from having the fear ironically. The mask doesn’t but I understand it’s comedy.
@@unpopularopinion149 then you don't understand science or even basic logic. Please don't use your guns
Best line honestly. The most truth about the whole situation for sure.
Wry, witty, observational humor; good job. Delivery was spot on, and effortless. Good job!
That woman's laugh is very infectious. I couldn't wait for her to react to what you said!
I wish his set was longer! He definitely killed it!
Bro! That Nickerson joke was dope! You have to land that K ... 😂
I love his confidence. In my opinion it's just as important for a comic as delivery and of course being "funny".
Look alikes sound alikes unknowing party switching values build then degrade repeat and change.
Nice material and a rounded laid back delivery. I ain't ever heard of you to be honest with you mate, you popped up in my feed but I will definitely look at more of your videos. You're a very funny guy. Oh and greetings from London, England.
🙏
The level of self awareness in that joke, the timing, delivery, and crowd... I'm dying over here. So clever. "you find me a more important K in history". AHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHA
Other people laughing that hard just makes you laugh with them. I love that.
You always gotta have a plant in the crowd
Not gonna lie, acoustic guitar songs about rivers does sound enjoyable.
May I recommend the Garth Brooks song "The River."
I immediately thought of Paradise by John Prine "...down by the Green River, where Paradise lay", which I am currently learning... on acoustic guitar! LOL
That lady laughing made the already funny jokes that much better thank you lady and thank you stand up comic haha
Love it man!!! The important K...brilliant. 👏 And that woman's laugh...awesome! I'd love 2 laugh THAT much, that loud.
That one lady in the crown having the time of her life lol
Man, wish you had a full crowd for this one. You killed it. They woulda been roaring
I love that woman in the crowd laughin almost non stop. Everyone needs to be more like her and laugh more.
Been awhile since ive ran into a comedian who is funny i like this dude... subscribed!
He said you gotta land that like Simone Biles - I’m WEAK.
When you hear comedians say "the audience was howling". This is what they're talking about!
I feel like even he was surprised at how much they loved him LMAO
This is just too hilarious. Subbed!
The Lil Nas X joke is GOAT level brilliant!!! I'm dyinggggggg
Yeah The Lucifer monopoly lol
You were FUNNIER than Gary Owen!! The net on a ham joke and Biden being older than ALL microwaves had me dying!!! 😂😂😂
Cap but respect your opinion
Where's the Biden joke?
@@SlyRyFry LoL. I think they threw that little extra in...
I didn't hear any Biden jokes either. lol

@@Iamfolarin not cap . Lmao mos def funnier
He had me laughing but when he said “ to the window!!” I spit out my cheerios. Lol
Someone is a very lucky person to have that laughing woman in the crowd as their friend or partner. Love Contagious Laughter, It heals renews and relieves joins everybody under the one truth Love one another no matter what.
Best. Crowd. Ever.
If I got laughs like that even once, my life would be complete.
You brought it. Creepy stache and all.
Oh my gosh that. lady's laugh is so funny!
And I think her laugh is making everyone else laugh contagiously.
I mean, this guy is hilarious already & then with her cackling, it's like a laugh riot.
Poor Dustin, LOL. But man, you still manage to BRING THE FUNNY no matter what! But yeah...that last name of yours Dustin, whooey, that's a tricky one! God bless you!
One of the beat sets of the night. Dustin was all gas no brakes, until reparations hahah
😳 😂
“A net on a ham”🤣☠️🤣☠️
(Edit) that random audience member. omg🤣
Earned a random subscriber because of this short set. Looking forward to more comedy gold on this channel.
I've been following you since your first KYDC appearance. Bruh...you've been killing it.
Bro you killed this show!! MURDER!!
First time I’ve seen this comedian. Very effortless and relaxed
"Really? What're those guns for?"
... As someone from the South who has guns, I can't even argue with this.
Yo that lady laughing legit made me laugh harder and harder, hope she cherishes her laugh.
This dude is destroying. You gotta be decent to get a black crowd going like that.
or a magician!
all he is doing is stroking there ego
@@joejacko1587 You need to get out more & take your meds, dude. How the F is he stroking their ego? 🤣🤣
@@GenXMusicMan It's pandering, doesn't mean it's not funny - but it's still pandering.
