I wonder if Druski put out a 1 hour comedy special yet?

Dude is amazingly talented
Same reason will ferrell or Kenan Thompson haven't done one.

Sketch comedy is a different skill set from Standup. Druski should be trying to get on Snl rather than doing a special, then parley that into movies.

Would not say all that

Eddie Murphy is the golden example of doing BOTH sketch comedy and 1 hour stand up specials

Damon Wayans did sketch comedy, and did multiple 1 hour special standups
Also Chris Rock, Aries Spears, Tommy Davidson, Jamie Foxx, etc

some people can do both. most can't

I actually wouldn't use Chris Rock as an example here. He was a below average talent in sketch comedy, far better at standup.
Damon wayan was the reverse. goated at sketch comedy, kinda mid at standup. all these years zero classics

But the point is, not every sketch comedy comedian has the talent to do standup. And they don't have to, you can make a comedy career without any specials.
They are two seperate skills regardless if people exist with the talent for both

Druski supposed to be doing a movie with Kevin Hart and Kai. So we’ll see if he can bring the same energy on a movie set.

Your leaving out the part where all those comedians started out as stand ups. Learning the art of a live audience.

His show Martin is a combination of a Sketch comedy show and a Situational Comedy show

How would a standup special help Druski's career? You're obviously not a really comedy person outside of watching clips on Instagram it seems like lol. No shade though:manny:
