You should also add he is an amazing bloody thug. He has no class. He publicly fought with a security man in an estate in Lekki recently. Never knew he is such a low life. I though he was an amazing guy with panache and class but like they say wash a pig all you can, dress him in purple robe, put him in a palace, a pig remains just a pig.

So sad.

I also learned that he had slapped a police officer at the lagos airport before.

Just like music, there are different types of comedy too,.. I believe AY's own wouldn't call for a stand up show.

Then again, I bet if someone like Trevor comes to Nigeria, many won't find him funny.. You know why?... Most Nigerians are used to silly jokes.
There are jokes for Intellectual people and there are jokes for Mediocre Audience... No Nigerian Comedian tells jokes for Intellectuals. And if you Check, comedians like Trevor don't tell jokes, they discuss lol.

I love Trevor like cray!!. I have all his comedy shows on my PC.

people only find things funny when they can relate to them...most Nigerians won't find Trevor funny because most of his jokes are based on apartheid and interracial relations and they simply can't relate to any of that

Same way, if a Nigerian comedian makes a joke on the different types of 'music' we listen to here, most foreigners won't relate and so won't find it funny or a gay guy talks about gay people's challenges, you may not relate, so you may not find it as funny as gay people would.

I had a collection of Chris Rock and Dave Chapelle comedy only me seemed to find funny, then I got one of Russell Peters talking about strict parents and another of him talking about dick size, most people i showed found him funny

I don't subscribe to the whole idea of intellectual and mediocre jokes, a joke is a joke depending on who you're telling it to

PS: If you no dey yarn am for pidgin, e no sweet. Language goes a long way in selling a joke

Just like what everyone has repeatedly said here, AY is a good business man with excellent marketing skills. He has helped a whole lot of people and made them rich. He is rivaled, perhaps, only by Alibaba, Basketmouth and Opa Williams in the comedy business. He is a comedy mogul.

As for being a good comedian, I wouldn't place my bet. I don't find his jokes funny. Right from the onset of his career, I've always found his jokes boring and farfetched. There was always something amiss in his jokes that could have made him funnier. There's no hard feelings when I say that AY'S JOKES ARE NOT FUNNY.

Ironically, I find his movies & skits funny. For some reason, he seems to be a better actor in the comedy genre than a comedian. I found 30 Days in Atlanta hilarious, mostly because I could relate with it as a Warri boy. I'm anticipating the sequel which is set to be released this year.

Sincerely he is dry but truth be told, he has the business acumen. What this tells everyone is simple. U can be the best at what you do and still be broke. It happens in every profession, everyone knows someone very good at dir profession but still can't stand another guy in terms of riches and wealth who is far less proficient in the same profession. Sometimes God also on someone's side matters. I know a lot of people who are exceedingly good in their professional but I keep wondering why they don't get the money. That's life

AY will host a musical concert and claim he is hosting a comedy show. Someone tell him we attend his shows to see the musicians and not to listen to his dry joke.

Some people are talented, while some talent are been practice, develop passion on what works for you and the Almighty God will multiply your abilities with Grace. All haters of AY pray for Grace to multiply your Effort and the world will celebrate you, AY is Known Globally. And you AY, Return all the Glory to God and stop listening to critics. May God crown our Effort with Grace. Amen
