Witness firsthand one of the hip-hop generation's leading comedians in his first stand-up broadcast, originally aire... more »d on HBO in 1997. VooDoo Child will keep you laughing through a virtual comedic drive-by that hits all of its targets: racism, sexism, homosexuality, education, religion, the Bible and Michael Jackson, not necessarily in that order. No person, group or creed is spared as with great skill and wit Eddie verbally pounces on everything and everybody and keeps it real in the process. Here's hip-hop comedy on the edge, filled with rage and loaded with truth!« less

"First off.
To: Eddie Griffin
Thank you for getting up and driving your self to become
a comic/actor. Thank you for writing "VooDoo Child" and
for years of laughter.
I have been searching for years for this DVD or even VHS.
Untill this year I try the hopeless search string and
much to my suprise, what do I find... Wow, it's finally
here. So I jump right in and purchase me a copy.
Can't wait to give this to my wife as a Valentines day
gift. Her and I originally saw it air on HBO and made a
copy of it. Well, the two moves we've had and countless
loaning out of VHS tapes, it disappeared along the way.
Finally it's commited to DVD and finally on the market.
This is my first impression of Eddie Griffin, the very
first thing my wife and I have seen of his and has
watched him grow from it. And to this day, my wife and
I still spit out some of the lines from this show on
occation and quietly giggles about "Laylay's leg".
His resent success has landed him on:
"Men of the square table", I believe a series of
SuperBowl Ads. Funny as L.
We will continue to watch Eddie Griffin grow into
quite a successfull actor like Will Smith, Jamie Foxx,
Tom Cruze & Brad Pitt.
This is a good show to purchase, sit down with the
wife and prepare to crack up. I strongely advise this
to any couple looking for that special box with the
best laughs inside. (Disclaimer):Not for the kiddies!
It's rating is UnRated, enough said...
We're Pulling for ya Eddie.
Congrates to your Continued Success.
And we wish you all the more."

"Eddie is a terrific comedian on his day. I don't know why he brought out this drivel (by his standards). Some might enjoy it and I can see how they might. For me however, he did too many weak jokes that I have heard before ad nauseum. He cusses way too much and for no reason at all. Don't get me wrong, I am no prude, and yes, I do enjoy cussing, but I like it to be done in context. Eddie cusses for the sake of it, without being funny. I find it a tad disappointing because he truly is among the top 10 comedians working today.
His other work is far superior to this."
