Black Vagina!   shocked028
... me cannot stand these two idiots!!! They are killing me!!!   :2funny:
This was a new one to me.

The second one, Negrotown, I have seen before and liked it a lot. Your are right about putting a lot of effort into this one, the production is right up there with musical comedy's of old and they deserve to get an Emmy for this one.  :thumbup:
The story line has a lot of deep social commentary in it, the song itself should get an award.

BTW... you likely already know this, but just in case you do-not, I found this article after watching the video that you posted:
Key And Peele's "Negrotown" Actually Existed-Here's Why It's Gone.
Quote
In a satirical, yet pointed video sketch, the duo Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele of Key and Peele imagines what life would be like if black people had a vibrant, successful community where they could thrive without the interference of systemic racism. This bright, magical place was called "Negrotown."

"I think I get it. It's like a utopia for black people," Key says in the video, later adding, "This just sounds too good to be true."

Actually, a place almost as idyllic as Negrotown was once a reality during the early 20th century. The Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, Oklahoma, is perhaps the closest America has ever come to having a town like the one imagined by Key and Peele.

Unfortunately, racism and white supremacy ended it after all.

What happened? Greenwood grew as blacks moved to Tulsa in the early 1900s, attracted by a major oil boom in the region. Blacks were largely restricted to this section of the city, because racial segregation prevented them from living or shopping anywhere else nearby. In spite of living under Jim Crow laws, they built a community wherein blacks could build economic power and flourish among their own ranks.
Read the entire article at the link above, it's a really interesting read about life, death and injustice in Merica.

Yes, I remember reading something about that many years ago although I don't remember a lot about it. I'll have to read that article. Thanks for posting it. :)
