The population of Hispanics in the United States is growing rapidly and is fast approaching into majority than minority. The rest should probably get on board with Hispanic comedy that the cultural community has pioneered.
Hispanic comedy has reached a crescendo when it comes to popularity. There is a mile long list of Hispanic comedians in the past few decades. That list would certainly begin with Cheech and Chong, the two ‘high’ artists who love Latin culture. Cheech Marin’s partner, Tommy Chong only does Hispanic on film, being a native of Canada and of Asian descent.
Moreover, the list of Hispanic comedians has extended far beyond a point that includes modern contemporaries such as Carlos Mencia. He has climbed the ranks of the world of entertainment and has his own show on Comedy Central and a successful stand-up career. Another successful Hispanic comedy artist is George Lopez who also uses his Latin heritage as a sort of feed for comedy. Greg Giraldo is one of the most popular comedians today who features in various Comedy Central ‘roasts’ of popular celebrity comedians. Hispanic comedy is often described by its anticipation of stereotypes of the Hispanic people. For sure, Hispanic comedians are on the rise to provide fun for everyone.
