“In 2009, remember Kiss FM was here and I was hosting a show. People don’t know that Bill Cosby sought actively to try to get [Def Comedy Jam] out of there. He didn’t like it at all. So we had a run-in and I knew he didn’t like me and I didn’t like him.
He called in 2009 to do an interview. I was at Kiss FM in New York … me, Jackie Reid, Steve Wilson. Bill Cosby calls, he had a gig in Connecticut. I knew he didn’t like me, so I just let them do the interview and about ten minutes in, he was being such a dick.
So I said, Mr. Cosby, what do you want us to know?
He said, ‘Who is this?’
D.L. Hughley.
‘You say nigga and you do this.’ And I say, ‘With all due respect Mr. Cosby, when I cuss or I say nigga, no girl ends up with her underwear on backwards and drugged. And when I say nigga and cuss, it’s on stage– not on a police report.’ And we [went] back and forth…five or ten minutes later, the people from Kiss FM and Emmis Communications came and took that tape and said, ‘If it airs, you’ll never work in radio again.’ They took it from everybody and said this better never air and it did not. I know he’s powerful enough to make that happen.”
