Columbus Short has proved over time that he’s a man of many talents, but fans are currently roasting him because of a recent music performance of his that has surfaced online.
On Thursday (June 22), The Neighborhood Talk reposted footage of the “Stomp The Yard” actor performing his 2020 single, “Falling Apart” with his band Be On It. Short decided to throw in a few dance moves while he grabbed the mic and attempted to belt out the upbeat record, but it appeared as if there was a sound level issue because he was nearly inaudible in the clip.

Fans could not help themselves after seeing the video and took to the comments section for a little comedic relief at the expense of the actor.
“The dancing ain’t matching the sound coming out his mouth. I normally give ppl grace but this is atrocious,” one person wrote, while another added: “We rockin theta theta theta. One of the more finder moments,” in reference to his 2006 breakout role in the aforementioned movie as DJ Williams.

Love & Hip Hop: Miami star Bobby Lytes chimed in, writing: “Oh he take Karaoke serious!” while another commenter shared a similar sentiment, “Must be Karaoke night,” they wrote.
After someone called Short “somebody’s drunk uncle” and another said he couldn’t “be the same man that had Megan good hooked in stomp the yard,” an additional person chimed in and uplifted Short for simply enjoying himself. “Y’all gotta let black men LIVE life. He’s not causing problems so ion see the problem,” they wrote.
Check out the hilarious clip below:
In reference to the creative worlds of acting and music merging, the late 2Pac was one of the best to ever do it from a crossover perspective.
Wood Harris recently appeared on The Rich Eisen Show where he was asked about his time with ‘Pac while filming the 1994 classic, Above the Rim. Though it was only his third movie following Juice and Poetic Justice, the “California Love” rapper inadvertently taught Harris something he’s kept with him since.
“What I gained from 2Pac as a professional was I realized the power of the actor from 2Pac,” he began. “There’s a scene in the film where – it’s not even a scene, it’s a clip where we just drive up, get out of the car, enter the park. That’s the whole shot.
“So it’s action, we drive, we get out and walk in, cut. And we were in separate cars. I’m in my own car and 2Pac was in another car. He has a young lady driving him to the game.”

He continued: “So 2Pac grabbed [a knob that used to be in old cars] and slipped. There was a rhythm to it. Did it again and it was like, ‘Cut!’ He said, ‘Oh you guys gotta fix this. This ain’t working for me.’ So they said, ‘Nah let’s just try it again! I think you’ll be able to get it.’ So the second time, same thing happens. He gets out the car, goes to the trailer, stays in the trailer like two hours. So what did I learn from that? I learned the power of the actor.”
