Danny Aiello on Spike Lee, Jay-Z, Richard Pryor

Veteran actor Danny Aiello played the dozens and talked tough with DJ Whoo Kid for the fantastic Shade 45 2010 holiday show! It got spicy with the language as Whoo Kid and Aiello discuss Danny’s early use of racial slurs, his friendships with Richard Pryor, Robin Harris and Redd Foxx… and they also pulled out tunes from Danny’s holiday album My Christmas Song for You! Whoo Kid makes a great backup dancer!!

Do Black people really have the best bullsh*t meter? Was Danny Aiello a hood gangsta on the low? Why did Spike Lee tell the press that Danny didn’t want to use the “n” word in Do the Right Thing? How did Danny end up collaborating with rapper Hasan? Will he be working with Jay-Z in the future? How did Wesley Snipes get screwed over? What prank did Eddie Murphy and the Harlem Nights cast pull on Danny during filming? Why are the Knicks rocking it right now in the NBA?
