LaKeith Stanfield On Playing Snoop Dogg and His Role in FX's Atlanta 

Guy played a character the whole interview. He didn't let them lead him anywhere he wasn't trying to go. Gave just enough information without giving too much information or gossip. Wanna see him in more movies in the future.

His self-esteem is dope. He doesn't seem easily bothered by anything. Just a cool dude.

From the start of this interview they immediately started throwing shade at Lakeith, so he decided to just troll them for the rest of the interview. Charlemagne expressed how he shouldn’t have gotten the role of snoop, he called his skin rough, he said he looked old for his age and that he needed to drink more water. Angela brought up his prison record which was completely irrelevant to the conversation. But Lakeith was supposed to sit there and continue to be graceful to them during this interview?? Lmao FOH!

*whos here three years later because of the beef*

i'm gonna go out on a limb and say homie might be low-key brilliant ! like seriously, the kid has mad talent .

I really like the Breakfast club. But this thing that they do where they ostracize quirky black people needs to stop. This dude's intelligence is vast and they basically belittled him throughout the entire interview. Shit needs to stop. This dude is dope!

The irony in CTG trying to diss his acting skills and the whole time LaKeithe is acting his ass off and CTG is believing the act!!! I love it!!! He played the hell out of CTG!

He played them this entire interview. 😂

I noticed that these guys don’t understand young, smart, satirical black males. Ctg always ends up trying to bully them despite the fact they’re secure in being different.

He gives me the vibe of one of those Lowkey geniuses who don't give af what no one thinks. I've been following his career since Selma and I think that he's a young Sam Jackson

this dude is inspirational. he's living life like one huge art project.

Charla: so how u get pass the sex scandal Lakeith: same way you did ..fatality

Darius is a smart nigga. He realizes how condescendin the whole crew is about weed smokers and smoking pot, so he started getting sarcastic with them. This nigga is higher than a muh, but it don't take away from how clearly intellectual he is

They don’t realize how he is running this interview. He is controlling this. I love his way of being, acting and his use of words

Charlemagne: so being a sex offender didn’t hold you back from getting any jobs Lakeith: when does that ever hold you back ? Ctg wasn’t expecting that one LMFAOO

They don't even know he was trolling them the whole time.

His genius exposes the basicness of the breakfast club hosts

Bruh Charlemagne extra lame for this interview. Dude personality is so dope. They couldn't even vibe with him because he's on another level

He said, that never stopped you... I'm dyinggggggggg

Who’s here because CTG hating on this young genius once again for his AMAZING role in Judas and the Black Messiah? 🥴

i digg his dry humor lol

"Everyone across the globe got dysfunctional families. The question is to what degree?" -Lakeith Stanfield 2016

He trolled their a** this ENTIRE interview. Great job. LOL

They’re so stupid LMAOOOO “I wanted to see how much you were like Darius” “ain’t I just like him?” They really don’t know how smart he is

This man is too advanced for the Breakfast club lol “I’m cheetahing”

I like this dude. Low key trolling the breakfast club.

It hurts to see how they treated him, he’s an amazing spirit, I know because I’ve been in his situation so many times, being the only one at the core of the earth while everyone is still on the surface. Can’t even finish watching it.

Lakeith is a genius, he turned this interview all the way around and exposed all of them. My favorite actor 🙌🏾❤️

This dude might be a genius, he definitely got some talent.

You cannot troll an intellectual.

'I’m interested in storytelling; not pandering to people’s ideas about how things should look.’

WTH would you have an African American on the show and bring up his ARREST RECORD? This whole interview was so disappointing.

This interview was very Awkward S/O to LaKeith for killing it. I felt like they were trying to make him a joke especially Charlamagne with those stupid questions. LaKeith killed it. He is definitely a low key genius.

Whenever they cast for OutKast’s biopic. Lakeith needs to be 3 stacks.

I am strangely and deeply attracted to his aloofness.

lol he Clowned him for bleaching his face then Charlemagne wanted to switch up and ask another question he can't take it when someone comes at him.

Why tf are they being so rude to him? like I think he's a good, intelligent, handsome young actor. With his fine self 😍😍😍

That "In and Out.. of jail" turned "In-N-Out Burger" joke went over the heads of everyone in that room 13:14 to 13:25

He talked about how he used to work at AT&T selling phone service and just saw his movie "sorry to bother you" yesterday !!! I'm having deja vuuuu

Charlemagne is jealous and feels inadequate in this man’s presence! Not only can he act, he has an excellent command of the language, something Charlemagne doesn’t have. Furthermore, Lakeith’s rap was great and on another level- they could not follow him!

Lakeith too smart for them.

I felt like lakeith could play a young dave chappelle, if they ever decide to make a movie about a young dave.

The interviewers--particularly the two dudes--are too 'short' for him!!! 10 years from now, Jealous Charlemagne will be sitting at that same spot; and LaKeith would have won an EGOT--an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, and an Tony!!!!

He is such an intellectual....he said “you got your facial situation figured out” he clapped back easily and many times but it went over a lot of people’s heads .....

There's something about this dude that's so creative the way he does acting and his demeanor is genius like. He like on another wavelength.

That whole last minute felt like a scene from Atlanta. AWKWARD

Im glad he took that grill out cuz i was like why is it there

“I’m not lion, I’m cheetahing.”

Keith is my bro for life...some people can't handle his mind.

Who else was glad he took the grill out

Now he is in 'The Photograph' with Issa Rae and I hope he doesn't give The breakfast club the time of day because they were so disrespectful during the whole interview 😡

Bruh he started trolling them once he read the room 😂😂

This nigga played a great young snoop

Lakeith was method acting the whole time in the studio!

“How high are you?” LaKeith: “6’0”

I'm here after watching LaKeith on Judas and the Black Messiah , this man is an Amazing actor. His acting is insane.

Give The Entire Breakfast Club Cast 'Donkey of the Day' For Not Spotting His Sattire the entire interview

that's a very intelligent young man, that intimidates every man and woman he comes across. give respect when it's due.

This is why the black community will never prevail. young intellectual black men who think differently are treated without respect and are ostracized, whilst personalities such as lil pump and lil uzi are entertained.

Him in Atlanta is honestly my fav character in the show. He’s like the perfect sterotype for big stoner but at the same time being super smart and chill no matter what comes his way.

I think everybody Is forgetting his role on "Get Out" as well.

it kills me how envy is always so surprised of someone having success without going to school, (i believe its called the power of positive thinking)

He killed me when CTG taking about staying away from alcohol.. and LaKeith laughed to himself and adds "real righteous brotha" That went over his head😭🤣

LaKeith is everything ! And extremely misunderstood, Thank you soooo much for continuing to be you 🥰🥰🥰

He's very eccentric... and I love it!

I could see him playing Jimi Hendrix

I love how Lakeith really controlled this interview. Like he was in control and they were trying so hard😂

I love how unapologetically himself he was and how 1 dimensional they all continued to sound 🤣

"Do you think you'll just be known as Darius" "I got a couple tricks up my sleeve." 6months later... Get Out

Woooooowwwwwww, i'm baffled by how ridiculously closed minded and immature they are. This man is clearly creative, passionate and super intelligent. They probably didn't even understand half of the things he said in that freestyle and Charlamagne is obviously just being a hater. That freestyle was better than half of these rappers that they play in rotation everyday. SMH

Charlemagne and the rest of the breakfast club is so lame...

I watched this when it first came out & the back seemed shady and now looking at it. He handled himself very well. Much love Lakieth. Keep being you

He was really spittin, but then again 21 Savage is Charlamagne's favorite rapper...

somethin bout this guy.... he knows something we don't

And this is the real reason that troll gave him donkey of the day.

I can’t wait for my self esteem to be similar to his. He’s not bothered by none of the sarcastic vibes or dumb shit they saying lol. He’s too chill

Man, he really is Darius, at least in this interview. I'm still stuck on him using the exact term "sclera" to refer to the whites of his eye. Interesting dude. I can definitely see why Donald wanted him for the role specifically.

his "Get out" character was Hillllarious!!!!!!!

Tf does Charlamagne have against this guy?

This brother is an excellent actor. His work on Get Out was extraordinary. He owns the Darius role. My favorite, “can I measure your tree?” And , “Im that guy...”

CTG can be so petty... the only reason he was dissing Lakeith is bc for the first time in a while he wasn’t the smartest guy in the room and he felt threatened by his superior intelligence.

This guy is more talented and smarter than he knows himself. Should really consider getting those acting classes to hone his craft & talent even further . He's the real deal.

im watching all of his interviews. this dude is a performance artist. awesome

“Ive been in and out one time i didnt really like the burgers so i never went back” Envy: im confused Ctg: what? Yee:he went to jail and didnt like the burgers 😂😂😂😂😂 YOOOOO

That hat is the symbol for MARTA Atlanta's public transportation system. (Moving Africans Rapidly Through Atlanta). Haha! Charlemagne wasn't gonna let him get away with that "facial situation" comment. He waited for him to rap, to give it just enough time to make it seem like the hate wasn't related.

I hate when you use a big word and people say “how come you didn’t just say___” just because they didn’t know the word!

I love how quirky he is.

This is probably one of the funniest interviews I’ve EVER SEEN in my life. This shit is fucking HILARIOUS 😂

He played the hell outta them with that In-N-Out line lmaooooo

He switched to trolling after she mentioned his record.

2018 and look at where he is now! Cream always rises to the top! One of the most interesting and exciting actors to hit the screen in quite awhile. And definitely not the run of the mill creative or cookie cutter mind. Much continued success to this steadily rising comet!

12:27- "I feel like I'm on Nardwuar"! Now THAT would be an amazing interview...

Man this guy is low key hilarious 😂

I hate their personalities they have the tendency to gang up on the guest. Also it’s funny to see him a true intellectual trying to have a conversation with somebody who thinks he’s a intellectual

I definitely want to hear more of his music, he brings a different vibe.

I'm so grateful he exists. I love Lakeith

I don't know why but he fascinates me!

Charlamagne always gotta hate. He was mad cause he aint fall for none of his interview antics, and then spit some shit that was low key bars, probably thinking he would embarrass him self. Dude is dope, and hes smart af, I definitely look forward to his future works

It's all good more power to you lakeith stanfield peace from Manchester UK

How could you not like this guy 🤣🤷🏽‍♂️💯
