Kountry Wayne talks Drake vs. Kendrick, parenting 10 kids, VIRAL YouTube & Facebook fame
Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda sit down with comedian and content creator Kountry Wayne, who breaks down how he built a Facebook and YouTube operation dropping 40 skits a day with 14 producers, why he stayed on Facebook when everyone else left, and how he generates seven figures a month without a major network or platform deal behind him. He talks about growing up in a town with two red lights in Georgia and how the streets gave him more subject matter than most comedians ever get. Kountry Wayne also opens up about his Netflix special ‘A Woman's Prayer,’ why dropping a special is the hardest thing in comedy, his upcoming independent film ‘That's Her’ starring Coco Jones and Loretta Devine, and the Drip character he killed before the audience could. He closes out with his philosophy on relationships, why Drake and Kendrick should have gone on tour instead of beefing, and why Black artists need to stop dividing and start pooling resources against the platforms getting rich off all of them.
