9 Things We Learned About Hannibal Buress On The Breakfast Club

Unbeknownst to some, Hannibal Buress is standup comic who’s been on his way up for a hot minute. While Kevin Hart was experiencing a coming out party for the ages for the past few years, Buress was busy outing Bill Cosby’s dirty laundry and having to deal with the praise and fallout that it entailed.

Today the Chicago comedian checked into The Breakfast Club where Charlamagne Tha God called him a “legend killer” and got him to jokingly admit to spilling all of Nate Parker’s tea as well.

When he wasn’t joking around – which was rare – Buress spoke about getting clowned during his high school days for being dark skinned, the $26 incident with an overzealous fan, and getting G checked by Jay-Z.

Here are the 9 things we learned from Hannibal Buress on The Breakfast Club.

3. Cell Phones

He – like Dave Chappelle and Kevin Hart – doesn’t like when people use their cell phones to film him when he’s performing but won’t go the extra mile to prevent them from bootlegging his set.

4. The $26 Incident

Hannibal threw $26 in a white dude’s face after getting harassed at a diner for a picture. The money in question was the entrance fee the “fan” said he paid at one of Buress’s shows.

5. Uber

He tried Uber Pool once while he was on the road just because “I was lonely.” That’s pretty funny… and sad.
