Whitney Houston Tribute At 'Billboard Music Awards'
'Celebrity Apprentice' Finale: Who Got Hired?
By Karu F. Daniels, AOL Black Voices
"Most of these dudes only get attention after they make it. A dude does a movie or a sitcom, and all of a sudden, he's sexy. No way. I've been fly. Besides, everybody gets groupie love. If you're the best garbage man on the block, somebody is going to be like 'Damn, this dude is tight. See how he picks up that garbage?' Shoot, homeless dudes got groupies. Some girl is like, 'Look, he's the dirties dude out here."
-- Rising comic actor DeRay Davis on groupie love. ('Smooth')

Ihave never heard of or seen this guy before, and I don't think he knows or ubderstands anything about the day-to-day exerience a homeless person goes through. I have observed firsthand their misery. But, he does have a point: They doe have groupies! First there are the churches like Glide Church of S.F., that panhandles tons, of money from the internet and anybody stupid enough to give it to them. Then they build programs that will ensure the continued social dependence of that group. You know, control the housing and food so the end result is to keep them there institutionaqlizing their misery (while fooling their own groupies raising/stealing tons of funds. I'm not talking about the two" tons, either. All the while giving them just enough food to make a turd! Then, there are the progressive huggermuggers in the secular and faith-based non-profits who form a network to continue to suck their hope and their and potentiality, all the while, playing famous "cats" like this guy, and Will Smith so they will glamorize and romanticize this misery to make you think they have groupies. Oh, lets not forget the dope dealers, unscrupulous merchants, etc.,etc.,etc. The shame goes on, and , on, and on. No one will hear their quiet desperation. This saddens the hell out of me, because I know that: "somewhere a child is crying! Un-American, anti-human and the greatest betrayors of
christological ideals. Homelessness in our country must be totally destroyed soall of us can hope and start to live again. We all as black Americans are being injured by it. No matter how "pretty" this guy think he looks, he is very ugly to exploit the "misery of the poor for a laugh and a few bucks. You too, Tricknologist and False Prophet 'Rev. Cecil Williams. Satan though he had us didn't he? A Wolfgang Pit Bullington, III, dogbyte!

I don't know why his quote is taking up internet space. He sounds like a complete idiot and HE'S NOT EVEN FUNNY.

Well I'm glad that DeRay is successful, I enjoyed him doing standup at B&J's in Mattson IL. on thursday. DeRay is fine and he does not even know it, that's what makes him sexy.

I AGREE WITH VALERIE. HE SEEMS TO THINK THAT FOREIGN WOMEN WHO WANT TO GET TO AMERICA ARE MORE DESIRABLE THAN CHRISTIAN AMERICAN BLACK WOMEN. HE MUST HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE WOMEN IN HIS FAMILY.

I've seen DeRay more recently than when I first laid eyes on him. TVOne's 'Hot Chocolate' comedy shows have featured him as a comic on the panel more than a couple of times. He was very funny and I expect to see quite a bit more of him in the near future. Keep your head up brotha and keep doin' what you doin' - 'cause if you don't believe, noone else will.

It's comedy people, comedy. I remember seeing Deray on the Cedric show as a reindeer. It was him and another guy in reindeer suits and they were doing a sketch infront of the audience and they were taunting a wolf on the otherside of a highway in the sketch and it was sooooo funny. Comedy people, it's comedy. Deray is a comedian and it's a joke, everything that comes out of a comedian's mouth is a joke, it is meant to be funny not taking seriously. You want to be serious about something and be petty about it at the same time, talk about gas prices not what a comedian says.

Hate it or love it, it seems DeRays numbers speak for themselves. He's light skinned with light eyes though, you sure he ain't the love child of Vanessa Williams and Lionel Ritchie? Who knows? DeRay, drive that slab till the wheels fall off pimp. Deray Lionel Willitchie

This is serious indeed. Porky (AKA Antwan De Ray Davis) covertly put GPS Tracking devices on the cars of Producers, Directors, Actors, Comedians, etc to show up at the same time in the same place. Why? To get face time to get an opportunity to hustle them of course. Maybe to make them think they had something in common. Maybe to get some personal info on them. Ask Porky.
P.S. Did Porky ever 'coincidentally' show up where YOU were? What are the odds?
P.P.S. Robbie Rob, Jason Clark, and FishnBred all posted messages that sound just like Porky (Antwan De Ray Davis) when he posts messages about himself on his IMDB. com message board. check it ou
