“Comedy is the blues for people who can't sing”
— Chris Rock
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, life is hard and we feel sad or frustrated. Some people release these feelings by singing, but not everyone can sing well. So, instead of singing, they use humor to deal with their emotions. Comedy becomes a way for them to express and release their pain. For example, a person might joke about a tough day at work to make themselves and others laugh, turning a bad experience into something lighter. By making jokes, they feel better and help others feel better too, even if they can't sing a soulful song about it. This shows that humor can be a powerful tool for coping with life's difficulties.
