Comedian Hannibal Buress is getting a lot of attention after he called Bill Cosby a rapist during a standup show in Philadelphia last Thursday. Hannibal said, “Bill Cosby has the f*ckin’ smuggest old black man persona that I hate. He gets on TV, ‘Pull your pants up black people, I was on TV in the ’80s! I can talk down to you because I had a successful sitcom!’ Yeah, but you rape women, Bill Cosby, so turn the crazy down a couple notches.” Bill has been accused of sexually assaulting at least 13 women, although only one case has ever made it to court. In August 2006, Bill settled a lawsuit with a woman who had accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting her in his home in Philadelphia. However, as Hannibal joked in his set, people don’t seem to remember these accusations when talking about Bill because of his squeaky-clean onscreen image. He said, “I’ve done this bit on stage and people think I’m making it up . . . when you leave here, google ‘Bill Cosby rape.’ That sh*t has more results than ‘Hannibal Buress.'” Watch Hannibal’s NSFW set above.
