Jamie Foxx and his appearance on Def Jam Poetry. I believe this was from S2 (but don't quote me on that ;) ) LoL Note: This video does belong to HBO (Home Box Office) and their respective companies.
Yes, there is meaning to this poem. Jamie Foxx is first a comedian. It is meant to be funny, but the message behind it is to always have protection. The message is of great importance.
see this is why i loved def jam poetry...you could have clown ass poems like this that just made you laugh and then you had those really deep deep poems that just made you think like damn...
Nice us of parody when it comes to mocking the melodramatic poses of self-indulgent poets who think more of themselves and less of their actual lines. Classic Jamie Foxx. Thanks for uploading, Ms. Ariel E. Ryerse-Ma.
i am so glad he added the last poem part. he kept the humor in it while sitll making a very good point. (use protection people) i hope the rest of yall caught that. I know hes a funny guy but he made a damn good point.
this is NOT POETRY, it's PARODY, Jamie Foxx a great comediane, i don't like him personally, but as a comic he's a beast, this was comedy gold, all the exaggerated movements was just dissing the whole 'poetic' vibe, its just comedy, loooooosen up
only jamie would dare lol this is why I love him, always pushes boundries...sometimes he'll say something in a film and i'm like ''did he just do that?!'' looool
All you sensitive individuals saying that this is not the stage for his comedy are sadly mistaken. No where in the guidelines for this show does it say you have to be dark and serious. Go and watch some of the other "poets" and see the humor they bring to the stage. This is a place to express their poetic talent, and that is exactly what Jamie did. DMX came on and did a poem called the industry (Hollywood) and was applauded by the crowd. If they didn't like they would have boo'd him.
This is why Jamie Foxx is the true definition of an "Entertainer" He can do it all.....!!! Sing, Act (Ak---t), and Make you Laugh(Jokes for Days!!!)....
