Thank God that someone found him. He's severely Underrated.

That's so crazy. The innocence of a child. And the fact that his mom let him think that way. Only for society to destroy it in 2 seconds wen he moved to the city. The fact that she saved him. God bless that woman

There’s no excuse for someone to put a baby in a trash can this woman saved his life “God Bless Her”.

I’ll never forget him on Martin 😂 “Cat fish out back is delicious” 😂 even made Martin break character. Classic tv moment!

Imagine the confusion and difficulties growing up. I’m sure there were many obstacles he had to overcome. As he said it’s been a journey.

He Def is a legend. Dude crushed all his roles. Big Ups to his kind.

Comedy legend. Fluent in Spanish. I seen him do a almost half a show in Spanish and killed it playing to a Latino audience. He's universal. A true comedy 👑

It’s amazing how he processed the fact that he was the only brown one by associating it to the fact that animals have babies of different colors, just goes to show how observant & rational kids can be

What he said about the farm animals and how their litter came in different colors was a beautiful comparison...To how little color means..but society makes it an issue

Yoo ight Vlad I'll give you your props this is a interview we definitely needed.

His mom sounds like an awesome human for saving his life.

That was deep, Tommy Davidson remembering his thoughts of skin color as a 5 yr old who had grown up on a farm. Our minds as kids, its amazing how the world/society/life tweak our views as we grow

In Living Color brings me back man.......this dude was crazy talented as a comedian. Talking just comics him and Carey were probably the best two.

Just him being Varnell Hill on Martin in itself is legendary. This man deserves his props. Can we get a Sammy Davis Jr. Biopic with him as the star ? I guarantee he'll get an Oscar like Jamie Foxx.

Saw his stand up the other night straight legend.he still has all that energy

Huge T.D fan. One of the best vlad interviews I've seen.

Tommy Davidson one of the greatest of all time this guy a legend for real

If you didnt grow up on In Living Color on Sunday nights on Fox....you missed out on a piece of history. That kind of magic on television will never be replicated again.

Excellent! Reminds me of the lyrics from the song in “South Pacific “ you have to be carefully taught to hate and fear!

This was needed. He definitely was one of them brothers who needs some light shined on his many talents. GOD Bless

Real Legend here. One of my favorites... just don't get to see him enough. Hope I can see a standup of him one day if he comes to my town.

Crazy. Hadn’t heard THIS story.

A real legend in the game he trailblazed for so many

Varnell from Martin is one of my favorite Tommy Davidson appearances... Classic...

Damnit Vlad download the rest of the interview.. I only have 24hrs to live I want to see it ... My dying wish

Tommy Davis is a living legend‼️💯🙏🏼💭

Waiting For Vladtv To Talk About Varnell Hill On Martin

I been a fan for a very long time big up to you Tommy ❤️💯👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🙏🏿

Love him or hate him, Vlad pulls some of these legends out from the shadows.

I grew up in Korea as a half Black and Korean kid, and this is exactly how I felt back then...there was no model other than your own situation back then.

All babies are born without hate in their little hearts

It's Varnell Hill!!!

God bless the family that had 3 children, and decided to rescue another child, amen to your parents, you are a light to the world Mr Davison. I hope you do Stevie wonder if they ever make a movie about him

Turned Out To Be A Comical Legend💯 Gotdamn Varnell Hill😂

He was always my favorite on In living color right in front of Jamie and David Alan Grier for me personally 💯

Dope! I live in ft.collins co. Never knew this.

Varnell Hill 🙌🏾😂

He looks old and young at the same time lol living legend glad he’s still here with us.

This dudes movies are parts of my childhood salute tommy !!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Man, love the honesty here! Love it!

dam his moms was "Brenda" smh

The unanimous LOVE in the Comments which usually highlights negativity shows you just how great Tommy is… I had the pleasure of working with him on a few occasions and he was hilarious to be around.

THIS IS GREAT TOMMY,AMAZING WONDERFUL LIFE STORY YOU'RE BLESSED....

That In Living Colour cast was Epic him and David Allen Greer awesome

This dude is hilarious. He's the only stand up comedian I've seen who has jokes for everyone in the crowd. Every race, gender, etc. Love him. He also interacts with people on the streets like he's a regular guy. Love him

Tommy Davidson is a living legend!

Fascinating story

Let's also mention Robert Townsend's Hollywood Shuffle......not taking away from In Living Color, but that was the first time I knew about the Wayans Brothers. And even before that The Richard Pryor Show. Richard Pryor and Robert Townsend are the unsung heroes for putting so many acts on it's ridiculous! Tommy Davidson and David Alan Grier were always my favorites on In Living Color. I just don't think those two get enough props for the work they put in on helping making that show a success.

I still laugh when i think of him hopping out of the sack in Ace Ventura.

So innocent and touching. Just proves that racism is something make-believe and taught.

I saw him years ago at the Improv in Cali. He went off the dome and he was hilarious! I love him.

Loved him as the cook.. In Living Colour " ordered ham he would say "spam pick it up"!

I had brought a young tommy to all the cookouts to get his black pass too 🏚💯

What a way to come into the world. Wow. You learn something new everyday. I never knew Tommy experienced a beginning like what he described. 😢

I’m glad Glad did dis 1 Tommy Davidson Jr 1 of my favorites god blessed

Love Tommy Davidson💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Always found him to be absolutely HILARIOUS! Long time fan 👏🏾💯🎤

When 2pac said "the Rose that grew from concrete" this is who he was talking about, living proof there is GOD if u need a reason!!

Vernall Hill on Vladtv it gets no better

Very interesting 💪✌️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I always loved Tommy Davidson. I knew he was different in a special way. Funniest guy and I've never laughed so hard before seeing him perform. I never knew his history but he's achieved so much and from my own opinion....was never really given much of a chance....it shows how strong he is.

Damn....the end of this video touched my soul. smh Children are so pure. We as adults need to do better. Let's practice giving love

I'm from Greenville, Ms and it's still one of the poorest counties

great interview clip. In Living Color is such a memorable show. so much great talents we have till this day had their start there.

Didn’t know i wanted this but I’m expecting a great interview. TOMMY DAVIDSON is a LEGEND 🙌🏾

love this dude!!! always from as far as i know been humble since day one! much respect to this cat

The way he described a not seeing “color” as a liter was very eye opening

Unbelievable... the Journey !!!! Wow 🙏🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪✌️

Come on Vlad this is epic interview load the rest please

His explanation bout the animals making it relative to how humans breed really stuck to me. Powerful what the mind can perceive without the ACTUAL facts

Wow amazing story

Mannnn the most classic Tommy Davidson scene is when he was on Martin. Man that episode was classic!!

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 About time he gets his Props! In Living Color was PHENOMENAL. Tommy Davidson was a HUGE part of that.

A whole legend, don't sleep! Am I da only one who thought he made "Woo" worth watching

Tommy Davidson was hilarious in "Woo". A highly underrated comedy

Wow that line about the dogs & horses was heavy… if only we all thought that way.

Tommy is the most underrated In Living Color alumnus. Dude's sketch comedy is hilarious. Even his guest appearance on MadTV still has me cracking up. Him and David Alan Grier deserve their flowers now!

One of the most talented underrated comedians in the game. He doesn’t get enough money or props

Legend!!!!

One of the most underrated. Dude was a great role player on IN LIVING COLOR!!!!!

This dude is a living legend

Went to see him bout a month ago in b more HILARIOUS …. That’s my guy…definitely a living legend

One of the funniest men alive!!!!

Great interview

Brilliant thing he said at the end. i'm just the brown one in the litter. far as everything else, all was the same. shows the family that raise him didn't treat him any differently. part 2???

I met him in a Ralphs parking lot in like 2014. He was exactly like he is on tv. But extra sassy😂

Glad came thru again.

Strictly business still in my top 5 movies!!!!

Wow this story just proves there is no such thing as “race” it’s a concept, especially when he said he thought humans were like dogs and can have different colors

Tommy to this day is such a underrated comedian. I feel he (more than Jaime, more than Carey, even Damon) was the breakout star from In Living Color. He could do anything. And I wonder why Hollywood didn’t embrace him asmuch

Much love and respect🤓😎🤗 . I first met you back in the 90s in . In living color and , loved you since. Peace and love

Super under rated

this guy is a Legend in his own right : his characters on In Living Color were hilariously brilliant as well as his movie roles

Very interesting 💯

2pac was on point with his song Brenda’s got a baby

"SHE THREW HIM IN A TRASH HEAP !" SMH.... "BRENDA AIN'T 💩 !" 😡😡😡

Living legend 🙌🏾

Speechless! WOW! Respect!

Tommy Davidson! Great interview!
