Chris Rock
Though he’s made a name for himself in the comedic world, Chris Rock is more known for his appearances in Saturday Night Live and in films like The Longest Yard and Grown Ups than for his stand-up specials. Like any comedian of color, he does that thing where he brings up race and often to a point where people aren’t quite sure whether they should laugh because it’s funny or cry because it’s true. For that reason, Chris Rock will be a controversial comedian so long as race is— which might very well be a long time.
