Charlamagne Tha God is making moves. On Tuesday (July 7), The Breakfast Club co-host announced he landed a new gig at Comedy Central as a weekly talk show host. According to Vulture, the half-hour segments will focus on current events and cultural issues.
The Comedy Central deal once again pairs Charlamagne with president of the Entertainment and Youth Group at Comedy Central parent company ViacomCBS Chris McCarthy. They initially worked together almost 10 years ago when McCarthy ran MTV2 and Charlamagne was a regular on the popular Guy Code series. He then hosted two talk shows for the network, Charlamagne & Friends and Uncommon Sense.
Charlamagne celebrated his victory with an Instagram post, writing, “GOD really is great to me. Blessed, Black, and Highly Favored Forever. Thank You @comedycentral.”
The idea for the show started to manifest after McCarthy was given oversight of Comedy Central. McCarthy believes Charlamagne is the perfect choice for a talk show platform.
“Charlamagne’s voice is very right for today,” he told Vulture. “It’s fresh and real and resonating in a way that very few can do.”
The veteran radio host added, “Giving me a TV deal, almost 10 years ago, didn’t really make any sense. I was a radio guy. It’s easy to say, ‘You know what? I think Charlamagne Tha God needs a talk show’ now.
Charlamagne Says Nicki Minaj Was "Never Banned" From "The Breakfast Club"
“But almost 10 years ago for him to have that vision, that did a lot for me. A lot of my success right now is because of those looks that I got on MTV2 and Viacom at the time. And none of that would’ve happened if it wasn’t for Chris.”
No premiere date for the show has been set, but Comedy Central reportedly wants to be in production before the November election.
“Talent”…. If talent means spending all day sat in a chair bitching and moaning about people with actual talent, sure.
But here you are, bitching and moaning for FREE. Difference between you and him? He makes millions off his moaning -while you’re wasting your time bitching about someone that doesn’t know you exist lmaoooo clown.
Is that you Charlamagne? LOL
Says the guy cheerleading for another grown ass man that doersn’t even know how he exists. See how easily your circular argument can be flipped? lol
So is he leaving the breakfast club?
Talent lolllllllll
So another show that’s going to get cancelled. But I guess they’ll keep trying with this guy.
Secoria Turner 8 year old girl killed by BLM, the world need too see this, this is not ok!!! This is gone 2 far, the whole world is watching !!!! All the justice yall be fighting for means nothing now!!! You failed!!!
Dude, this has been happening forever. Nothing new. Black people
Don’t want to face the real problems affecting their communities because that would EMPOWER them and finally relate change. Their leaders who are all rich and the Democratic Party don’t care about change. If everyone isn’t downtrodden and believing America and the white man was to blame, they wouldn’t have their power. It’s truly sad. Yes, slavery and Jim Crow was terrible. We’re past that now. Black Americans gain over %1500 more than the average man in Africa earns. The homicide rate here compared to there is nothing. It’s sad. They should use POSITIVE momentum and move forward instead of ouching these OBVIOUSLY false narratives. Let a cop murder a Mexican who is a 5 time felon. Wait to see what proteste will happen.
Charlatan the Fraud. Named after a Emperor king who was a fat white raapist and murdered. LOL. Yet he somehow doesn’t like white rappers because they are somehow appropriating black culture? LOL. His show is on the INTERNET, which uses ELECTRICITY. He wears JEANS, TSHIRTS AND TENNIS SHOES all the time. Baseball hats. Wrist watches. He is a fan of basketball and football. LOL. All white culture. He obviously doesn’t know enough about Hip-Hop to know that DJ Kool Herc is credited as the inventor of the genre. Following his logic, Herc was a guest in the house of the white man. A white man from England was the first person to play multiple turntables at the same time and do so in front of a live audience. Hence, DJing, the precursor of Hop-hop is white culture. Damn. Black Americans owe TONS of money for appropriating from the white British. This guy is a straight moron. I can’t wait to see his cornball show flop. By the way, it’s is a TELEVISION show. Who invented that? LOL
You okay bro? Everything alright at home? You seem really unhinged. Take your meds and try again
Hahaha he said truth. Obviously knows nothing about history or the art form.
If you remove Africa from the discussion none of it exists period. I’m sorry if you feel he doesn’t appreciate the brits enough gov’. If you are looking for him to show appreciation to you red coats for a culture that originated in New York then maybe that’s more of a you problem.
Not British, jackass. LOL I love it when people who can’t read or write at a middle s hook lever come up with some nonsensical retort while ignoring the irrefutable facts they can’t contest. This dude is a hypocrite moron. Oh, as far as Africa, several (not all) of the first know civilizations started there. How are they doing nowadays? LOL have you been to Egypt? No. I have. You know they invented slavery right? LOL. The first men weren’t AFRICAN because AFRICA didn’t exist dumb dumb. Ever heard of the continental divide? Nothing about him being named after a white man, or that his rhetoric would make Herc a guest in the house of DJing because there’s NOTHING to say. Those are facts. Hahahahaha
Congrats on the new opportunity CTG
Congrats on your show that will be cancelled on its first season, you mean. LOL
Another puppet for the ( ( ( Comedy Central ) ) ) to push theri anti-white agenda.
