Of course, the Royal Comedy Tour borrows its name from DL Hughleys first comedy tour in the 1990s, the Kings of Comedy Tour, which featured Bernie Mac, Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer and of course Hughley. Mac passed away on August 9, 2008 from complications related to pneumonia. DL has fond memories of the original tour. “It was the best time professionally in terms of working with people who loved what they did. We weren’t selfish. Bernie epitomized that. That’s what people responded to. On the surface, it was four funny guys but we all had great respect for each other and what we do. It was like lightning in a bottle. Unfortunately, we’ll never be able to do a reunion,” Hughley told Access Atlanta.
The new Royal Comedy Tour features Hughley and Sommore, and of course some of the up and coming African Comedians working today. The include Aries Spears, Don DC Curry, J. Anthony Brown and many more. Aries Spears is best known from MaDtv on Fox but has plenty of other credits to his name. These include appearing in Spike Lee’s Malcolm X.
