Marlon Wayans: ‘I Heard Shabba Ranks Was Looking For Me After This Sketch’

[The Jamaican]

Comedian Marlon Wayans took his Instagram followers down memory lane on Sunday, (January 29) when he shared an old In Living Color sketch he did in 1992, which parodied Shabba Ranks‘ 1991 hit, Mr. Loverman.

In Living Color, a sketch comedy TV series that aired between 1990 and 1994, provided a platform for the many members of the Wayans family for their absurd comedy that often poked cruel jokes at celebrities.

This skit really should be the length of a TikTok video 'cause at certain point, we get it: he's ugly, that's funny. After that, that's not much to laugh at.

Well; in spite of my dislike for Marlon Wayans, back in the day, that sketch WAS funny...

Wayans brothers some damn fools

It was funny back in the days but today it doesn't mean much and there are certain characters and skits from ILC that were funny back than that are funny today.

They really were before their time and I believe that the Dave Chappelle show was the second coming of ILC and it finished off how they should of ended.
