Bicentennial Nigger

Post by Orwells cousin »

Man,

I'm sitting here listening to Bi-C Nigger - it has to be the most powerful comedy album ever. It's a lot more angry yet more accessible than any Lenny Bruce. It's like listening to jazz, especially Acid Trip. Nobody gets close to Rich. Never have, never will.

Man, I got to get ALL of his albums. They were talkin' about him on this show called The N-Word, and they were saying that he used the word nigger to make white people think twice about the context of it and i think he just loved black people so much for him to use it accessibly! that's why I love that nigga so much, Maaaaannnnn!!!

tory23,

If you don't have the box set you have to get it! And no I'm not getting commission! I've got about 15 albums all up - the box and various on vinyl. There's a bit of chat on the N-word on the board that I have to work my way through but there's a great moment on Bi-Centennial Nigger when Richard refers to a heckler in the audience as nigger and the dude responds finishing his reply to RP with nigger. One of the best examples of the unity of the word and the exclusivity. White folks can't use it to each other. Here was RP being on the same level as the audience. If you can't do that as a stand-up you're nothing. The man is everything...and a whole lot more.
