We’ll always support Black bromances. No matter how much people try to question them, Black men need to have a great loving relationship with other Black men. It’s essential.
Recently, Katt Williams took aim at the bromance between Steve Harvey and Cedric the Entertainer in a lengthy and messy interview with Shannon Sharpe on “Club Shay Shay.” He claimed that the popular duo has stolen jokes from him in the past (amongst other things).

Two of the most popular Black comedians of the past 30 years have also been friends for more than three decades. The two even opened up about their friendship while on Steve’s TV show. They’ve gone on tour together. They’ve appeared in movies together. They’ve been on shows together. Sounds like a loving bromance to me.
Keegan-Michael Key & Jordan Peele
Although these two comedians have taken different career paths in recent years, they were seen as besties during the golden years of their sketch comedy show Key & Peele.
Drake & Odell Beckham Jr.
Drake is friends with many professional athletes. But his BFF has to be Odell Beckham Jr. In 2016, the star receiver revealed that he was rooming with the Canadian rapper while recording his 2016 album Views. He also appeared in the music video for Drake’s 2020 record, “Laugh Now Cry Later.”
Kevin Hart & Dwayne Johnson
Opposites attract. One is huge and physically intimidating, and the other is short and funny. Despite these two being completely different, they are so perfect together.
Will Smith & Martin Lawrence
The bromance between these two funny actors translates on and off the screen. Their chemistry is great in every Bad Boys movie, but they also seem to have a good time when they’re not playing best friends in a buddy cop movie.
Drake & 21 Savage
Drake has a lot of hip-hop friends, but he might make his best music with Atlanta rapper 21 Savage. The two released their beloved collab album Her Loss in 2022 and they are set to go on a nationwide tour later this year.
Pusha T & Pharell
This might be the longest-running bromance on this list. These two accomplished Virginia artists have been working together since they were teenagers. Outside of producing countless bangers for Pusha, Pharell was also in the rapper’s wedding in 2018.
Michael B. Jordan & Chadwick Boseman
This one breaks our hearts. Michael B. Jordan and Chadwick Boseman were a pleasure to watch in the 2018 movie Black Panther. But it was even more enjoyable to watch them off-screen, as they promoted the historical film.
A$AP Rocky & Tyler, the Creator
These fly MCs are always goofing off together. Just watch this six-minute video and you can see how much fun they have together.
Cam’ron & Mase
For the longest, these two Harlem rappers were engulfed in a 20-year beef. But, after squashing it in 2022, the two have been making some hilarious content, most notably on their sports show, It Is What It Is.
Michael B. Jordan & Steelo Brim
Michael B. Jordan might be the bigger celebrity between the two, but he’s always seen hanging out with his long-time friend Steelo Brim, who’s a regular on the MTV show, Ridiculousness.
Drake & Lil Yachty
Although Drake and Lil Yachty don’t have a history of making amazing music together, they’ve been spending a lot of time with each other lately. Their bromance was on full display when they interviewed each other nearly a year ago.
LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, Carmelo Anthony & Chris Paul
The banana boat crew! These NBA legends have been friends since the early 2000s. Despite these Hall of Fame-level players competing against each other over the years, they always find the time to spend time together.
Kevin Garnett & Paul Pierce
These former Celtics teammates have rekindled their friendship in recent years. Paul Pierce has been a regular on Kevin Garnett’s podcast for the past few months as the two discuss hoops.
Stephen Jackson & Matt Barnes
These former NBA players were never the biggest stars in the league, but they were always among the most genuine. Their All the Smoke podcast is among the most listened-to sports shows out thanks to Barnes and Jackson always keeping it 100 with their guests and each other.
