Chris Rock Talks 'Top Five,' Bill Cosby + More On The Breakfast Club

Chris Rock's latest stop on the press marathon has brought him to the Power 105.1 studio to chop it up with Charlamagne Tha God and Angela Yee on the latest installment of The Breakfast Club. The irreverent comedian proved to be a formidable opponent to Charlamagne's brooding line of inquisition, which touched on everything from his forthcoming directorial debut in Top Five to where he stands on the travesties of Michael Brown and Eric Garner's deaths to whether we'll see the "post-racial society" in our lifetimes. Rock remained cool as ever, chiming in on his favorite DJs, delving into the disturbing Cosby debate and whether the world's even ready for the racial utopia of our dreams, referencing the brutally honest essay he published in The Hollywood Reporter calling out the endlessly white entertainment industry and the struggle of young black comedians trying to break out. Also, just so we're clear: Quentin Tarantino's Django is nothing like Nat Turner. And Rock is prepared to explain their inherent differences if you ever chose to connect their legacies in his presence. Watch Chris Rock's candid sit-down on The Breakfast Club below and be sure to see Top Five when it lands in theater's this Friday December 12th.
