DC Shine: Comedy Edition 12/23

Happy Friday, folks! It's time for a little DC Shine. This one is the comedy edition, so here we go.....

First up we have one of my favorite comedians, Earthquake, representing for SE. I believe that he attended Ballou Senior Highschool.


Another funny man from Chocolate City is Tommy Davidson. The man is just classically funny. I know that you remember him from In Living Color, but do you all remember him when he was on Martin? That was definitely one of the funniest episodes.


Next up we have Donnell Rawlings, who is ridiculously funny and hails from SE as well. Most people know him from Chapelle's Show and his unforgettable line "I'm rich bitch!!!" If you are addicted to Law & Order like I am, you may also remember him from a few episodes. Yes I am mad at the pic below because they have my boy looking like Ashy Larry from the Marcy Projects with all that makeup on.


Tony Woods is also from the urrea (that's how many people from DC and the surrounding areas pronounce the word area). I believe he is actually from Silver Spring, MD but it's all good. He is very, very funny. Maybe you have seen him on HBO or Comedy Central.

Most people know Chris Thomas from Rap City. He was the original host and is known as the Mayor of Rap City. Remember, this was back when BET's headquarters and studio was in Northeast DC, so much of the talent was local.

That about wraps it up for this week. 2 more days until Christmas....
