Comedian Aries Spears recently responded to controversial claims made by Dr. Umar Johnson, who alleged that Nike was responsible for Kobe Bryant’s tragic death to stop him from releasing an independent sneaker line. During an interview on VladTV, Spears expressed skepticism about such conspiracy theories, acknowledging the U.S. government's documented history of wrongdoing but finding Johnson’s claims “a little too far-fetched.” Spears compared Johnson to a character from *In Living Color*, suggesting he leverages outrageous statements to gain followers. VladTV host Vlad remarked that Johnson’s narrative likely attracts a dedicated audience willing to support his initiatives, like his never-built school project. Spears also praised Dave Chappelle’s latest special, which touched on similar themes of conspiracy and societal hypocrisy. Reflecting on broader issues, Spears criticized the selective outrage around “blood money,” pointing to America’s historical exploitation of Black labor as true evidence of systemic injustice.
