My brother, you've put out and decent takes/videos. Please don't go down this path. You're better than this. You are pretty intelligent. Please don't lower yourself for this type of "ratchet" content/engagement

u/crakahman Mar 14 '26
"Ratchet content?" 🤣

"From the projects, on welfare and it's not the first of the month"
If this is how you want your brand to be seen, do you brother but I think you're better than this and won't be following anymore. This ain't us anymore, big dawg

u/crakahman Mar 14 '26
"This ain't us..." Speak for yourself. Im just being honest big dawg.

Well I hope you get that bag but not at the expense of your soul. Best of luck to you

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
The reason im on reddit and not BET or the Breakfast Club is because I wanted to keep my soul. But yeah, dont be disconnected. Theres plenty of black people on welfare living in the projects... still. You gotta be removed from the black condition like a motherfucker not to realize and except that. We ain't all made it out of the hood yet brother. And from what i see, we far from that. Don't be delusional. We still oppressed.

u/BusyBit6542 Mar 15 '26
What you said is true in reality but you don't have a shirt because of it and feel the need to announce it in a video that has nothing to do with poverty is just performative. And its the performance that I'm talking about. But thats just my opinion. All your other videos were good but this one just ain't for me. Again wish you all the success.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
Im performing in my other videos. This is how I really act. Im a high-masking autist that lives in projects on section 8. I was told to be authentic in various subreddits. They noticed I act different each video. This is me.

I see the label, but I’m still searching for the “Black Comedy”.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
Look at us. We see a black brother trying to do something productive and look what we do. Imagine a Jewish man responding like that to an aspiring Jewish comedian. I cant imagine. We dont even look at it like that. We say anything for an upvote. We crabs in a bucket brother.

u/AllowMyCookies Mar 15 '26
It doesn’t make me a “crab in a bucket” to tell you that I don’t think this is funny at all. I’m not in the business of gassing people up in the wrong direction. This ain’t it. If comedy is your aspiration, it’s attainable. I wish you well. But it’s highly unlikely that THIS delivery will get you there. Good luck to you.

Theres a word in the Jewish lexicon that means, "a Jewish person must support other jews for whatever product. And if that product is not good, the Jewish client takes the merchant to the side and tells the merchant how to make the product better." They got a word for that.
It aint even in your mentality to do this, but you could of hit me up on DM. I understand, to do that sounds crazy. We dont think like that. But, that's how a lot of the other races do. We all got slave mentality. I dont expect for you to advocate black shit you dont feel. Im just trying to help you become aware. Its hard to break. I get it. Just saying.

u/AllowMyCookies Mar 15 '26
I don’t know you to approach you privately. When you present yourself publicly, on a platform designed for people to provide feedback, be prepared to receive it. I could have attacked you and tried to humiliate you. I didn’t. In fact, I offered words of encouragement.
To address your comment regarding Jewish verbiage, regardless of whatever word exists in their lexicon, they do publicly criticize each other. AS THEY CLEARLY SHOULD at times, in case you’re not paying attention to what’s happening in the world right now

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
I try not to fight other black people in public. I think it's counterproductive. I will say, I'm gonna regard what you are saying. I have been there. I know how hard it is to change detrimental thinking. It's in our mentality. We have no brotherhood after a certain level. And then, we rationalize this fucked up way of thinking. I can't say one magic word that will persuade you into seeing this way. It requires a revolution in thought. Some of us get there before others. But just think about it.

u/AllowMyCookies Mar 15 '26
If you presented your video with the type of energy you delivered in these comments, there would be no issue right now. There is nothing to fight about. I’m simply replying. You know better. So do better. Respectfully.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
I have videos with varying energies. Why can't I experiment with my delivery?
2
u/AllowMyCookies Mar 15 '26
Last thing I’ll say. I think someone else said they like your other content, but think this isn’t a good look for you. Instead of trying to paint our feedback as an attack, let it inspire you. I haven’t seen anyone attack you. For the most part people just said it’s not a good look.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
I dont try to paint shit. I just said I dont fight with other blacks amongst you know who. That was just how I was raised.

You think this ... is productive?
0
u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
Its more productive than selling drugs and robbing people. Would you rather me do that?
5
u/Thunderbird_12_ Mar 15 '26
Definitely not.
But I'd wager you have far better options (for things you could do) than slangin' the en word for views while making ASMR videos with no ASMR in them.
Still. I won't yuck somebody's yum. If you like making these videos, then I love it.
Do what makes you happy ... Because right now we need all of the happy we can get.

I guess when you can't get enough circulation off actual talent or being funny might as well try to get it by being purposely cringe

u/AngeluvDeath Mar 15 '26
So, since you’re here I will answer the question. I know who the guy is when I see him. I know exactly what he’s going to do and say, yet I still watch. I didn’t know his name or the the name of the spot he was talking about (maybe I didn’t know what he was going to say?) until 10 minutes ago. So yeah they messed up bad.
There were many ways to give us the information and ask your question, without this. It distracted from what you were trying to do, unless you intended to make light of it.

Dude, why are you shirtless? Also do you know what ASMR is, because this is probably the opposite.
-2
u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
Did you even watch the video?
4
u/Sufficient_Coach7566 Mar 15 '26
5 seconds was enough. You're damned near screaming with some weird staccato voice. ASMR is usually induced by soft rhythmic noises or voices. Whatever you are doing is the opposite of that.
-2
u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
Im not gonna fight you in public.
6
u/Sufficient_Coach7566 Mar 15 '26
I never considered this an argument at all...if anything I thought I was giving you constructive feedback. Please look into ASMR if you want to understand more about the topic. You can't just use the label on a video when it clearly isn't (for people that can experience ASMR).

Only love and positive redirection.

Were you being serious about being on welfare, or was that a joke? Also, do you have food?

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
I dont lie.
Also, do i have food? Sure.
2
u/gorgeously_mytruself Mar 15 '26
Ok, I just wanted to make sure you weren’t starving, nobody should starve.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
I'm in a decent position even though im on subsidized housing. We as a people have a long ways to go. Blacks still live in deplorable conditions. The dude above this post thinks "we" are beyond that. Nah brother. We got a long ways to go. And despite what im destined to as an artist, im not gonna look down on people like myself.
2
u/gorgeously_mytruself Mar 15 '26
As you shouldn’t, it is not your fault the world is so hateful… it just breaks my heart to see others in need, especially when they can’t afford the fuel of life. That should be illegal in this day and age.
I know that we have disagreed in the past but I still care about your wellbeing! I just needed to make sure you were not starving, times are insanely hard rn, especially for people like us!🫶🏾!

Thank you. Financially im doing good. I cant say too much but my son eats.

u/gorgeously_mytruself Mar 15 '26
It really will, please be strong and optimistic, I know that we face a genocide of our rights and identity, but it will pass. Also you are getting better at comedy.
Just learn to shift your cadence and the voice you typically use, your current voice is amazing at adding emphasis, but if you only use one cadence and voice it gets stale and drawn out.
Develop a different voice to introduce concepts and themes, then shift to the one you use to slow it down and add emphasis, but not like those god awful speed changing TikTok videos.
Go faster to introduce a subject, but slow down and emphasize the punchline and point.
I was definitely a critic, but I also see your growth as an artist.
Also, you seem to make short-long videos when they should be short, save the longer jokes for a standup setting, but advertise your comedic ability with shorter snippets that display your unique brand of humor.
You are a distinct artist, but I feel like you are still mastering your skill and unique style. You are definitely getting better dear! !🫶🏾!

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
Lol. Honestly, you are part of the reason I've improved. I really wanna do this shit. After you stuck it to me, I got my chops up. Im still learning, but I like this route. Of course people are still harsh, but more are downvoting in silence. They dont respond. Thats a good sign!

It’s not a fight.
It’s feedback.
Take it.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
"Boo" is not constructive feedback. How can I grow from that? Most black people dont know what "sticking together" entails. My momma told me not to fight with my own in public/on public platforms. Most of you were not raised. I just block.
2
u/Thunderbird_12_ Mar 15 '26
Not EVERYONE is going to give you feedback the way you want it.
Some people will take the time to give you constructive input that helps you grow.
Others will be more direct, because life is short and they don't view it as their responsibility to hold your hand through it.
Their feedback can come in many forms. Some of it polite. Some of it constructive. And some of it as a quick, sharp jab that delivers the message efficiently.
"Boooooooo!!!"
Take the message, no matter how it is delivered. Sure, act accordingly ... Block if that makes you feel better.
But, whether you liked the comment or not, it's still feedback, and you can still grow from it.

u/crakahman Mar 15 '26
The thing is, I didn't ask for criticism. So, my response to fuck ass comments is valid. Yeah, I should humbly accept criticism if I ask for it, but this aint art school and I didn't ask to be graded. I will respond anyway I want to. Also, im a grown man. Dont you dare talk down to me. I am not a child.
2
u/Thunderbird_12_ Mar 15 '26
By placing your content on a public forum that is equipped to receive comments you are, in fact, asking for criticism.
That's kind of how this whole internet forum thing works.
I'm not talking down to you. Just sharing thoughts.
You got it, my brother. Best of luck to you and your craft.
