Its Showtime At The Apollo Volume 1

Russell Simmons presents this collection of episodes from DEF COMEDY JAM, an all-star comedy showcase featuring the most talented, rowdy, and cutting-edge black comedians in the United States. Featuring a host of great standup comics, this collection presents three episodes from the show's nine season run. In them, saucy bad boy Martin Lawrence and ex-MTV VJ Bill Bellamy both give tremendously funny performances. Also featured are Steve Harvey and D.L. Hughley, two stalwarts of the black comedy scene -- a fact that is evidenced by their appearances in Spike Lee's ORIGINAL KINGS OF COMEDY. This video is an extravaganza of laughs guaranteed to tickle -- or perhaps kick -- one's funny bone.
