Theo Von is looking to one-up Drew “Druski” Desbordes after the latter’s recent clip went viral.

In a recent skit, the comedian-influencer cosplayed a white man hanging out with people in the hood. Druski, seemingly full-body makeup, acts out multiple antics during the two-minute and eight-second-long video.

The caption to Drew’s post reads,

“The WhiteBoy that's accepted by the Hood 😂”

Many on social media loved Desbordes’ comedic take on a white man growing up in the hood, but Theo Von responded differently. The stand-up comic-podcaster quoted Druski’s post and jokingly wrote,

“Its on nah! Lemme get my paint.”

A user asked Theo to “take it easy,” to which he replied while mentioning Sherwin-Williams, a paint company,

“I aint start it cuh @SherwinWilliams”

“Thanks boo but imma at least do a lil bronzer outta respect.”

The This Past Weekend host gave a somewhat edgier response to Drew Desbordes’ recent skit, which garnered much attention on X.

“M* not joking. He beeeeeeeeeeeen waiting on his moment,” a user commented.
“Don’t take the bait 😭💀💀💀💀💀💀,” another user posted.
“Nah don’t do that cus then it’s gonna make national news 🤣,” someone suggested.
“Pls don’t make me unfollow you again theo,” another one wrote.

A user demanded,

“I need a full podcast of White Druski and Black Theo Von.”

Another user posted Anakin Skywalker’s “What have I done?” meme and said,

“Druksi after opening Pandoras box 🤣”

Whether Theo will respond to Druski’s skit is uncertain, but the original video has fetched a lot of attention online. On X, the clip has over 35.4 million views. At the same time, on Instagram and YouTube, it has over 15.2M (with 1.3M Likes) and 254K views, respectively.

A user highlighted Snoop Dogg’s impression of a White man, “Todd,” under Drew’s post on X and wrote,

“Reminds me of Snoop 🤣”

The comment got a reply from the Dogg Father himself, who claimed that he “forgot all about Todd.” Snoop Doggy Dogg also responded to Druski’s post separately and asked (with a facepalm emoji),

“Is red related to Todd ?😂😂👀”

There were plenty of other replies praising Druski or recalling White man impressions done by other famous Black celebrities, including Dave Chappelle, Kevin Hart, Daylyt, and more.
