In the early ’90s, Comedian Chris Rock starred a parody of Hip-Hop called “CB4,” now it looks as if he is set to collaborate with two of the culture’s biggest names, fellow Bed-Stuy native Jay Z and Chicago’s own Kanye West.
Jay & Yeezy co-produced the upcoming feature, “Top Five” which is directed, written and starring Chris Rock. The movie centers around a comedian turned actor who recollects on his early experiences as an up and coming comedian. The film takes place in a 24 hour time frame, similar to HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm” or Louis C.K.’s FX hit, “Louis.”
The flick will feature some of comedy’s biggest names, like Tracy Morgan, Kevin Hart, J.B Smoove, Cedric the Entertainer and even Jerry Seinfeld.
“I think people are going to be surprised with Jerry. I think that’s going to be the big shock of the movie. I mean, it’s Jerry Seinfeld in an R-rated movie, so it’s kind of like a special effect in itself. He did a little bit of it on Louie this year, where you see mean Jerry, you see realistic Jerry, kind-of-dramatic Jerry. I think Jerry’s going to surprise everybody. Everybody’s really good, but I think Jerry’s going to be like, “Wow! Never thought I’d see that.”
