OS4--EAST ST LOUIS NATIVE LYNCH WINS NAT'L COMEDY CONTEST!

If you haven’t heard of comedian Willie Lynch Jr, you are about to real soon. The East St. Louis native (who has a B.A. in History from Fisk U and M.A. in Education at Tennessee State) has been making folks laugh for a few years now traveling the comic circuit (as well as hosting his own comedy showcase at the Cigar Bar Inn in Belleville, Ill) not just the St Louis area but across the country. This year alone,  Lynch (who makes his home in Chicago) was crowned the winner at the longest running comedy competition and festival, The Bay Area Black Comedy Competition & Festival. Next, Lynch applied- and won the Chicago edition of the Stand Up. It’s Miller Time Comedy competition and he is one of the key finalists to move to the comedy final! The panel, had Kevin Hart as a judge, and according to our sources, Lynch surprised a lot of folks with his comedy style and is favored.

Next up?  According to Lynch, "My ultimate goal is to bekome the next Eddie Murphy and John Henrik Clarke rapped into one."
