Lavell Crawford is basically my favorite comedian. I found out about him 2 years ago while watching Comedy Central. At first, I thought i saw Bruce Bruce (comedian) while flipping through channels. So, being that I like Bruce Bruce, I stopped on that channel and started to watch. Then I realized that the comedian on Comedy Central wasn't actually Bruce Bruce, just a guy that looks like him (Lavell).
Lavell Crawford looks like he's about 400 pounds. Each time he makes a televised stand-up appearance he comes wearing a really nice suit. However, he looks goofy as hell wearing the thing since he can barely fit in it. The guy talks with a lisp and can hardly breathe. Combine those two aspects with his heavy southern dialect and you get one funny voice. Honestly, I don't think Lavell's jokes are any better than any other comedians, but it's his unique appearance and uncommon stage presence that makes him so damn funny. I'll admit that Lavell wouldn't be half as funny if he was a skinny white guy, but he's my favorite comedian regardless.
