Tony Rock Explains The Difference Between Stand Up Comics and Social Media Stars

I had such a great time interviewing Tony Rock. It felt like I was learning and laughing the whole time we were together.  I even wore my Biggie shirt and Adidas jacket just so I could connect with the Brooklyn in him.  One of the questions I really wanted his answer on was how come people who are hilarious on social media with massive followings can't seem to translate their funny on stage like a Stand-up comic can?  Watch Tony Rock answer my question using perfect metaphors. Check it out below.
