Deon Cole on Getting Pistol Whipped by Idris Elba, Playing Don King & Hosting Jay-Z’s Show

You don't find many as talented as the hilarious Deon Cole between acting, directing, and comedy. We got up with the Chicago comedy legend to talk about his role as Don King in the Michael movie and the current state of comedy. Deon had us rolling with stories about getting security called on him at the Roots Picnic, the time Idris Elba pistol whipped him on the set of The Harder They Fall, and watching DeRay Davis's evolution up close. Few guests had us laughing quite like Deon. #AllTheSmokeProductions #comedy #AllTheSmoke #deoncole Please include the following copy in the YT description - GAMBLING PROBLEM?
