Stop Begging For Money On Stage – Basketmouth Urge Colleagues
Popular Nigerian comedian and actor Basketmouth has called on emerging comedians to stop the practice of begging for money during their stage performances. He addressed this issue during a recent podcast appearance, where he voiced his concern about the impact of this trend on the comedy industry.
Basketmouth emphasized that the habit of soliciting money from audiences diminishes the integrity and craft of stand-up comedy. He expressed his frustration with the increasing prevalence of this behavior, which he believes undermines the art form and the professionalism expected of comedians. By urging upcoming talents to maintain high standards, Basketmouth seeks to preserve the quality and reputation of stand-up comedy.

He said:
“All these new guys coming up, if you can stop begging for money on stage, that will do us good. Just go on stage and perform. Crack a joke and get out. I’m pissed off with how you guys have watered down the art,”
“Just go on stage and perform. Why are you hailing people and asking them to spray you money? If you want to beg, go to the streets.”
