In this VladTV exclusive, Vlad sits down with Simmons at his home to talk about the Def Comedy Jam 25th anniversary special.

He describes the reunion as both exciting and shocking. “For me, it brought back a lot of memories obviously but it also..reminded me that we needed to revisit this space.”

He believed that Kat Williams Kevin Hart and many other comedians –and that Hollywood didn’t see them. Furthermore, he thinks there are not enough black comedians in Hollywood getting a fair shot.

Thus far, 6 episodes of the Def Comedy Jam reboot are in the works and scheduled to air on HBO. The program will be hosted by Tony Rock.
