Hey what's goin on? I'm James. Some people call me James. Some people sometimes call me JPhils. Nobody calls me jiklawl(jklol). But it was the first thing that came to my head at Pat and Todd's so I'm gonna stick with it. I'm gonna talk about things or people that i think are funny sometimes. So I thought a good thing to start my first official blog on 37 percent blog (shout out to THE CONTRIBUTOR and THAT SMALL ONE for letting me join their awesometown blog by the way) would be something I'm gonna call "He's Funny:____." And today I'm going to profile a comedian named Reggie Watts. Watts is a heavyset, black dude with a gigantic afro and a large scruffy beard. He alone is just hilarious looking but then he starts performing. He's considered a comedian i guess but he's so much more than that. He does loop pedal-based a cappella compositions. So pretty much he's a DJ where he beat boxes and sings in to a looping machine and he works with those sounds to make an awesome, hilarious song thing. I don't know why i'm even explaining this (terribly). Here's him on Conan from a few weeks ago. I think he's on tour right now but he comes around to the UCB (Upright Citizens Brigade theater) when he's in NY a lot. I saw him there last monday. It was absurd. alright here's a link to the vid.
