As a black person, the childish belief that black ppl/businesses/etc. aren’t allowed to be rightfully criticized bc it’s “divisive” is very asinine
exactly because it simply has nothing to do with race whatsoever, doesn’t matter if you’re white or black or asian or hispanic etc. if your service/food/attitude is poor then you deserve to be criticized on it, it’s bewildering watching grown men babble over such a simple concept, it’s fair criticism regardless of what you look like
One BlCk person to another, let's keep it real. Across the African diaspora in general (Jamaican , American , Nigerian etc) too many of our businesses have extremely poor customer service . How the employees are treated is a whole other story
Yeah and it’s crazy cause if you’re not gonna respect my business and my money or myself as a person I don’t want to experience anything you have to offer me whether or not you black !
Welcome to 2023. Luckily people, black Americans especially, are waking up to the narratives that sow division instead of progress. Want to be successful? Ignore everything these people tell you.
It's all about Green when you run a business, you can't see any other colour. If you do, you ruin it all and I'm not talking about greed, money makes the world go round, if you ain't making money, you ain't moving.
It’s actually so impressive how he created his brand. His personality and humbleness makes him even more likable
Its funny how a restaurant owners wife called him autistic because he criticized the food. Talk about sensitive lol
Too bad is brother didn’t get the memo.
He's not a good person
@@nobodyjustacreephe said he don’t like white ppl and I never heard of until Sean Strickland and this Patrick cc is a goof too booty sucker who leeches off other social media personalities lol
@@nobodyjustacreepwhat makes you say that
I think people resonate with his “reviews” so much because it’s coming from the perspective of a regular dude not a food critic. The thoughts he expresses in his videos reflect the thoughts of the average customer at a restaurant.
duh. that's already said in the beginning of the video.
@@SassiFrassGirl08smartass
@@SassiFrassGirl08 shut up nga like damn
its not that deep go outside @@SassiFrassGirl08
too bad they all are sell outs. too bad oppinios and perspectives are like buttholes, everyone has one but no one what to hear you talk about yours for 10 minutes so presumptuous of that guy to think that he has anything meaningful to say about fast food.
as an atl girl, I loved the chaos he brought to the city. A lot of these restaurants are ridiculous and it was time we spoke about it
damn, they really made jess mad
Can you tell me more? I’m from Germany and I didn’t see anything about that on TikTok or sth
@@andrealein157It mostly on America. A restaurant with stupid rules that focused on exclusivity and didn't bother with normal customers. Many Europeans restaurants that I knew of want none of that.
Someone posted a bill for 1 drink in ATL. $30! Hell nah.
@@unknownguyindo4356like Cardi B said it looks like those people specially in Atlanta don‘t want or don‘t like to make money🤣
The last statement hit like a truck, "Finally, the internet made the right person famous.". Love it or hate it, his honesty and refusal to sell out for money is MUCH needed on today's internet!
he did sponsored food reviews that is the definiton of a sell out
@@stupidsloth8386sponsorship doesn’t mean you have to give a positive opinion. Plenty of creators communicate that with a brand but they will still move forward with the sponsorship if they’re confident in their product. So you made no point with that comment
if you get money to "review" then you are a sell out by definition money can make anyone say anything and i do not care about "points" i just tell people how it is and if i got money for saying this then i would be a sell out
@stupidsloth8386 your name checks out.
@@stupidsloth8386 Your logic still isnt adding up. Selling out is when you exchange your integrity for monetary gains. If Keith Lee gave a straight up 10.0 on his reviews for a sponsorship like WingStop then that'd be selling out, but Keith didn't even give a rating for his WingStop reviews; he just ranked them in 1st 2nd and 3rd and talked about his experience like every other video.
It’s pretty sad to hear how certain restaurants only cater to celebrities but treat normal every day ppl like their business is an inconvenience! Such crap
Uppity "black owned businesses" making being black their only personality trait. Annoying af
Yeah that’s why he always orders without releasing who he is until after he pays for the food
fr like those people are who are actually keeping you afloat. the nerve to treat them like second class citizens just because somebody with more clout walks in
Keith isn’t tearing apart black owned business, the poor service they provide is just coming to light. I don’t agree with Ochocinco for defending these businesses just because they’re black owned. It’s enabling poor service. This is why I stopped supporting businesses just because it’s black owned, and more for the service I receive.
Exactly
it seems like he's not only reviewing black owned businesses. it's not like he's trying to be negative
@@hyukleberry5567 exactly, and he’s being respectful. He’s fair with his reviews; which is all subjective.
This idea that race is a factor in who can criticize or who can be criticized needs to stop If youre on bullshit skin color doesnt matter the bullshit needs to be pointed out
@@hyukleberry5567Right bc why wouldn’t a Black person review Black owned businesses? That idea is somehow outrageous for most ppl
Keith is doing good work. Helping out your fellow neighbors by simply being an honest person. He keeps himself humble, never strays from his morals, and lays it out as it is. I respect that, especially since he doesn’t want to be treated any different. That’s real integrity.
"Let your light shine before others so they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in Heaven." -Matthew 5:16. Mr Lee is living that life 💯 what an inspiration 🤍🤗
Hope the business are sharing profits
I loved his ATL series, set the whole city ablaze 😂😂😂 How they running restaurants like they nightclubs with VIP out there? Ridiculous. Ochosinco has no idea what he talking about. He’s not tearing down black businesses, he’s holding businesses accountable, not only that, he always gives back
Exactly Chad just sounds dumb ash talkin about Keith’s tearing down black owned businesses. I lived in ATL when I was younger, the restaurants are annoying to eat most of the time. Has nothing to do with the color of the owners skin and everything to do with how they run their business
Chads daughter got him all the way together and he made a second video apologizing. She told him that we are Team Keith 😂😂😂😂
Chad was such a clown. Trying to tell us to excuse poor service and bad food just bc it’s a black owned business. Girl bye you lost me!
To Chad's credit, he actually came back and apologize after his daughter's got on him about kieth Lee. So he did his home work and saw Keith is a good man
@@mrphenom1643 I saw that, it didn’t really seem like he ever took any responsibility or actually apologized directly to Keith. More like “my daughter set me on the right path… might daughter set me straight…” stuff like that. I’m still glad his daughter was there to be the sensible one
I’m so glad these restaurants are finally being held accountable. I’m tired of them getting away with terrible customer service and sometimes even bad food. It’s crazy how they resorted to threatening Keith Lee instead of holding themselves accountable and working on treating their customers right. Praying for Keith and his family. 🙏🏿
Honestly this is a shitty time to be a consumer - we are in a transition where the unnecessary jobs are showing face. It's embarrassing to see how many restaurants and their employees behave nowdays - zero customer service yet they hold their hands out like they are owed everything. Fuck the way things are right now
@@rickeykoga2312nahhhh acting like customers don't treat employees like shit more is wack. 9 times out of 10 any fued that happens within the restaurant is because of customers like you being pieces of shit
TRUE! it's not like he's petty or anything nah he's straight up calling out bad behavior restaurants have
@@rickeykoga2312as a former retail employer, I try my best to sympathize with people who are working retail and food jobs, because I understand how it could be, however it's also not fair to take your frustrations out on people who have nothing to do with it, and I'm glad people like Keith are starting to call out businesses and people
I dont know why but the last sentence made me tear up. Finally we made the right person famous. Hes helping so many businesses and raising his babies with his wife. Hes a good man and im glad he got to this point.
Imagine your bar being set so low you tear up because someone take minimalist parental responsibility
@@ghostoflazlo that's the point smartass. If more dads actually took responsibility for their children, this wouldn't need to be said.
@@ghostoflazlo Most people today just aren't like that especially with money.
@@ghostoflazloI’ll pray that one day you can be emotionally moved by a young man who changed his life, supports his family, community & is going up for it? You must be very pent up emotionally like a lot of other people on this app.
@tylerclapp4349 again, your bar is set under sea level. Or you surprised a black man taking responsibility?
As an ATL native this whole situation was cathartic because ATL restaurants are so stuck up. I remember my mom getting into it with a waitress at STEAK N SHAKE because she didn't bring my mom food just me and my brother, and instead of fixing the issue she immediately started arguing back and forth with my mom. ATL needs to do better and it been needed to happen
Haven’t seen a man with this much power in the food community since Gordon Ramsay.
seriously insane how much his word means
It's plain and simple. He shows love and respect to every culture.
It is actually scary how powerful he is, Im happy for him tho
For real. I ain't know how deep it went.
theres a food community?
Keith Lee is genius
YOOOOOO WSP MY MAN BEST SMILE
.... WHO?!
you are a legend
😁
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I nearly skipped this video bc I'd never heard of Keith Lee, but I am sooo happy my bf put it on. Having a rough day, and the absolute WHOLESOMENESS of his story inspires me to be a better version of myself than I was yesterday (gratitude to Patrick for sharing it!). Stay humble, honest, generous, and loyal...and God will make a way out of whatever darkness we find ourselves in.
That’s interesting you would have skipped the video just because you didn’t know him.
ppl usually watch "the story of" videos about people they know js@@beatbuildersstudio
@@beatbuildersstudioI mean that’s natural for many people
It’s mad impressive how humble He is.
His videos are chill and he comes across as very genuine without having that, over the top yell in your face style a lot of TikTokers have. Really refreshing
It’s patterrz, time to pet a subnoodle.
I dont think he seems geniuine
@@nobodyjustacreep he says he slows his speech down because his normal voice/accent can be hard to understand & he doesn't want to leave room for misinterpretation. I reckon that's what seems a bit off about him but yeah its so we can understand him. I'm from Australia for example and if he spoke with his normal accent I probs would miss a lot
@@nobodyjustacreepdo you know him?
And he’s handsome
If your restaurant isn’t providing good customer service on a blind review and someone is honest about that, it has nothing to do with tearing down black owned businesses. I feel like Keith especially would never act like that. Nothing he said was rude or egregious or out of pocket. He was just honest
Yeah I never bought that tearing down black businesses stuff. If you open at 8 don’t open at 9 don’t give your customers attitude then complain about support black businesses.
he's uplifted many black owned businesses as well which throws the argument completely out the window.
@@trestiles1914 Keith has been just as honest about other businesses it doesn’t matter who is running them. It if isn’t run properly it isn’t run properly, you’re absolutely right.
@@everyday-pierce4040 he’s been an unbiased and fair judge across the board since he started even after working with huge names he’s never lost his integrity
This use of the race card is EXACTLY why those types of black businesses don't succeed. They don't want to improve. They want everything for nothing. Good food doesn't automatically = good place to eat
To the ex football player, if you think Kieth was trying to "tear down black owned businesses", maybe tell those black business owners to do a better job at running them.
the thought of Keith lee brings tears to my eyes a lot, such a genuine person. I’ve never been so proud of somebody I don’t know at all.
His brother fought in the UFC for the longest time, and Keith himself fought in Bellator. I never would have imagined he would end up becoming one of these food influencer type guys.
Yep, I met Kevin back at 217. Super cool guy. I was shocked when Keith made it so big on Tik Tok lol.
idk Keith existed until my brother showed me a tiktok and I was like wait a minute he looks like Kevin Lee & they're both Lee too. The world is crazy
Not one of, that's THE food review guy right there!
@@poopyfartboiI thought Keith Lee was only the legendary limitless wrestler future heavyweight champion
Wait Kevin Lee is his brother ? Why didn’t it ever dawn on me
I love when good people become famous. Good people don’t usually get to the top bc it requires back stabbing, lying, hatred, or luck. When owners cry how much he helped their business I definitely cried too. Great video.
Agreed! He's so likeable, you just want to keep rooting for him which feels so rare these days.
For real it’s so rare to see genuine people go viral these days. Everybody’s so desperate to get famous they will throw all their morals out the window and go around acting a fool just to make shock-content that has no real value. We need to stop making irresponsible people famous and start supporting people like this man
How is he considered a “good” person when bro had his family struggling cause he couldn’t financially afford to have children?
@@Wokstarkilo everyone has periods of struggle but he pulled himself out of it through sheer will and dedication. It's not like he remained in that position without doing everything he could to fix it. You seem to have a very skewed view of things.
@@Wokstarkiloand where is he now?
He’s a shining example that you can be famous and still be down to earth
I live in ATL and the black owned restaurants out here notorious for bad costumer service this was a wake up call for them because it is truly annoying
I didn’t know him before, but the fact that he turned his life around is an inspiration for those who haven’t had the will to pull themselves out of a bad situation. Never too late!
Right his story shows how much your environment affects you
Yeah you just gotta have a promising boxing career with a 6 figure contract and go from there such a humble story
@@andrew_lop3z534he is talking about before that happened
@@wayside5182for me it's crazy how hos brother literally went to uni but no one told him he needs to go through the applications process and shit. they HATED him or something in that household
did you watch from the beginning?@@andrew_lop3z534
Seen him once while at UPS, the way he treated the employees was and gifted them candies he was sent, was crazy because his energy was so down to earth and humble while receiving TONS of packages.
We need more people like Keith Lee. Thank you for introducing this man on your channel.
He is highly favored and blessed. He is a regular guy who eats and he is super honest. I'm glad he has way to help mom and pop restaurants who are great.
I literally teared up a little when the segment about how he helped some of these restaurants get business. Shouts out to Keith Lee that’s fucken amazing. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I did too at the end.
Same I was just about to comment this. Yahweh bless him ❤
I tear up whenever I watch any of his food reviews... we need more people like him in this world ❤
It's always the ppl who ain't come from nothing man, people with humble beginnings are more generous because they know what it's like to stress about having a roof over their head or live paycheck to paycheck. People born into wealth simply do not have that level of empathy "Finally the internet made the right person famous."
Same here; a real emotional rollercoaster of a video! Man's out here doing God's work in the most wholesome way: through his deeds may others recognize (& try to emulate) the divine light he shines so brightly...and may the shadows scurry in his presence. The *_humble_* inherit the Kingdom. 🙏🕊️
I had never heard of this guy, but I have mad respect for him now.
@@Jesus_Loves_you2499 I hate when I think I'm gonna see a funny or interesting comment and instead it's just some annoying proselytising
@@SuperNuclearUnicorn stay strong, brother 😅
@@Jesus_Loves_you2499 what video do you mean?
Are you imply Keith is Jesus??
Fr history and context is everything - Keith went from random influencer to dope human being thanks to Pats vid
I’m a vegas native and the Keith lee effect is true. My brother and his friend group all went to Frankensons pizza. Waited in line for 2 hours. The owner was actually extremely nice and talked to my little brother. Gave him free garlic nots and a shirt
I am from Atlanta…and EVERYTHING he said about the spots in Atlanta is on point! 🙌🏾 I stopped dining out in Atlanta decades ago! 🤷🏾♂️ Only the real ones know to just stay at home and cook your own food!
You can’t hate on a man who is a family man/ a man who seems and appears to be a good husband and a good father.
and when he and his wife inevitably divorce I am sure the stories about how he was abusive, did drugs, slept with hookers, or something will come out. It always does.

"unfortunatelty, the *entire city of Atlanta*--" had me DYINGGGGGG he didn't even have to finish the sentence LMAOOOAOAO

I’m from and live in Atlanta and I approve what Keith Lee did!!!
SAME
What a down to earth and genuine guy, I hope he stays that way
I have so much respect for this man. His journey is AMAZING!
I genuinely adore Keith Lee. He just likes good food, his family, and God. Even when he tears restaurants down, he's very nice and asks his following to form their own opinions and not blast the restaurants he didn't like with negative comments.
Because his reviews are more like a friend recommending a food spot that’s what makes him extremely likeable, what he stands for is extremely respectable as well
im not saying this guy isn't a good humble dude. but I wish everyone who watches this video somehow is lucky enough to find a support system like him and glow up. Wife, family, management. job ect. Tbh he just seems like a good guy who got lucky enough to do what he loves. Unfortunately most of us are not going to have it so easy. Our bad habits and poor decision making may not be bailed out by a good support system. Stay strong kings.
Honestly, yea. A lot of it is luck, but some of it is also the internal work. Knowing what you value and stand for and seeing everyday as an opportunity to grow. If you do the latter, sometimes you may find your luck increasing.
One of the few comments on here that only show true peace and love man. Thanks!
Up until a month ago, I'd never heard of Keith Lee. Then the Atlanta drama. Since I've been looking into him & his life, I amazed not only how awesome he is, but also those around him. He is the definition of being genuine & positive, and by surrounding yourself with genuine & positive people will yield genuine & sustainable positive results. You summed it up at the end: the internet made the right person famous (for once).
That football player must have had a few too many hits to the head because saying keith lee is destroying black owned businesses whenever the businesses themselves are the ones serving bad food, customer service, or whatever keith lee complained about is insane
And it also equates black businesses to bad business lol there are plenty of black owned businesses that ACTUALLY do good business that Keith uplifted. Focusing on his negative reviews of bad businesses and trying to say he isn’t supporting his people because of that is insane
Bruh I thought you were gonna talk about Keith Lee, The WWE/AEW Wrestler 😭
Same here 😂
Same LOL
Same lol
Same here😂
nah it's just Kevin Lee little bro
There’s so much space in my heart for him and his story.
I only found out about him about a month ago, when he went to Atlanta. He always seemed humble. I had no idea he did MMA. And Atlanta's restaurant scene is exactly how he described. I visited in 2019, and they nickle and dime for everything.
I've never heard of this man and he's already quite inspirational to me. I've made the same mistakes. Bad kid, got expelled from several schools and in a country as small as where I'm from that meant I had to leave it and my family, I got addicted heavy to weed, it felt like my only source of peace. But that was just short term happiness, that shit makes you worse off. I made bad decisions and the ones that were seemingly good, I did for the wrong reasons. As if proving something I don't care about to someone because they questioned my ability will make my life better. I was fucking stupid, I made ignorance look like a lifelong skill Ive been working on. Be honest with yourself. And yes sometimes a good woman can make the change feel like a blessing rather than a trial to go through. I hope people see him as that, an inspiration. More power to him.
Just wanted to say that I’m rooting for you! No one knows your journey except for you- I know breaking patterns and destructive mindsets is SO hard to do and no one rewards you for the times you’ve dragged yourself out of holes you’ve dug, but the more you’re able to pull yourself out of that darkness and create good (and then in turn help others, the best part) the stronger your spirit will be. I’m proud of your growth, that self awareness means you have emotional intelligence ❤️
A blessing fr accept Jesus Christ into ur life and watch u reach heights u nvr imagined
@@codyfloyd3620 Amen🙏
He is a real inspiration to many people!
Your first im second 😢
Who?? I don’t know tf this is
@@happicheshirecat i shouldnt have checked your channel 😭😭😭😭
Hahahaha what a loser.
@@happicheshirecatcap. People know who is. Even though he’s a loser, people know him.. Unlike you.
I never knew his backstory but I see him all over tik tok. I’m glad he was able to help so many businesses ❤
As a Black person, I have been both annoyed and frustrated with black businesses and I live in the DMV. The food is always scary expensive and some restaurants have incredible rude staff (not all tho). I just wish they'd cater more to the community they serve, meaning.. prices we can actually afford.
As a Hispanic man I don't have this problem at the Mexican restaurants or the plethora of burrito shops where I live. Usually, I pull up to the drive through and it's a 45 year old man with a couple kids who is as high as I am so always chill and the food is almost always good.
It’s the same if not worse in Atlanta
@@vcalv9354I feel like it depends on the type of Hispanic restaurant. Mexican / Salvadoran restaurant employees are typically down to earth and offer reasonably priced food. I can’t say the same about the Venezuelan/ Dominican restaurants that I’ve been to.
Because the majority don't understand long term business. They see selling it for the most profit, at the least cost to them as how people make it when it's the exact opposite. You need to have fair prices, good food and great hospitality to make it in the service industry. That means losing out on money your first few years, which they don't seem to understand. If you are in for a quick buck you might as well not even setup shop. You'll be pushed out once everyone realizes it.
@vcalv9354 Not trying to be rude or anything but im not sure what this had to add to the original comment,, Or I guess you're just sharing your experiences nvm have a nice day
First time hearing of him but happy that he’s able to support his family doing this, on top of bringing in customers to these small businesses.
Yeah we're screwed out here in Houston I mainly just eat at subway here😂
Keith Lee is proving that people are sick of corporations & businesses lying to us in general. we rally around genuineness in real people
I never knew he was into martial arts. The way he acts and his demeanor is the total opposite of someone who likes to fight for a living
His brother is Kevin Lee they both are/were MMA fighters. Kevin made it into the UFC
That’s nothing but a stereotype bro, most fighters are chill and humble without a sense of self importance or ego because its a real blue collar sport, most fighters are living paycheck to paycheck usually working another job just to support their careers except for those who make it to the top and earn real money
Plus man marital arts does that to you it helps you stay centered and humble, keeps your ego in check
I love the way he reviews, very honest, and straightforward. He's a great person & doesn't lie to make money like so many others do. I trust his opinions 100% because there's no messing around behind the scenes. Also, how he makes sure it's not known that he's ordering, and goes above and beyond to help restaurants/owners in need is really a beautiful gesture
Never heard of this guy, probably due to distant generation but his story is so much like judge Mathis! Expelled from Detroit high schools, turned himself around to some degree connected to his mom in terrible hardship, and right down to meeting a woman who brought out his absolute best and became his wife, and then against all odds made his way on an unbeaten path to success. I'm only halfway through the vid, but so far he's resembling the king judge Mathis ❤
I absolutely loved this video. I shared it with a few of my friends and family because it's so heartwarming. A good godly family man being blessed and blessing others
I never expected you to make this video I’m a massive fan of Keith I don’t usually like tiktok type videos but what he does for small businesses is amazing this man is god sent
All Keith is doing is telling the truth! Props to him. I actually put my name as Keith lee on uber and my quesadilla had the most protein I've ever gotten from that spot.
😂😂😂😂
I'm out Boston way and I might try that.
I love the fact patrick is getting the recognition he deserves with these very in depth and interesting videos. I always learn something new from him even when i think i know everything
I think it’s just… humorous that a guy could post his objective, honest review and people think any sort of negative review is grounds enough to send actual death threats to some of these restaurants.
I KNEW I'd seen him somewhere before! MMA! That's so crazy. Definitely respect this dude for not exploiting shit for views or acting like something he isn't. Need more people like him as "influencers"
never knew his upbringing was like that. you couldn’t tell/wouldn’t believe it cause he’s such a great and cool genuine person. i fully support what he does and he gives off inspiration to those who don’t have their shi together that you can always change and become a much better person. love!
The inception of this video is funny to me cause I actually trust your word about people I don't know aswell. I can tell how genuine you are when making videos about people. Stay hydrated my guy 🔥🔥
Bruh, i remember hearing Kevin Lee talk about his little brother blowing up on TikTok. Now Keith Lee bigger than Kevin ever was 😂
I adore him for the sole fact that he actually has hands and he refuses to use them when he's not treated with the same compassion and humbleness he patiently provides those who dont deserve it Like HE HASS HIS HANDS REGISTERED AS LETHAL WEAPONS and it takes a strong ass human to choose to not....
We have been lucky to witness the Keith Lee Effect in person at his recent review of our friends at Joy Burger. It was such an amazing experience to see, the community showed up in droves! Blessings to Keith and his family for the work they do. #lasvegas
....bellator cut him, 4 fights into a 6 fight contract, for winning 2 and losing 2? wtf?
not often we get a good story on the internet and honestly a decent video covering it, well done, mate
"We don't want him critiquing our restaurants" translation: "We don't want to be held accountable for our horrible customer service." Imagine having a big influencer critiquing your restaurant saying they don't like the wait time and you wait for it.... try to do something about it. You can easily use a negative review by Keith lee to gain customers if you show that you are open to criticism and willing to change. People love an underdog esp in America, so you can use his platform to your advantage.
he keeps it real and respectful no matter what. that's why ppl luv him
People love them because you all are blind. Followers. Who love whatever you see other people loving on social media,
Fr
I must've been living under a rock because I legit had no idea who he was but glad I do now.
Not really. There are hundreds of food reviewers on social media that are honest and respectful that will never reach his level. The truth is there's a lot of little things he did along the way that just lined up very well for him that landed him in the position he is in. He was already kind of known from his UFC fighting and was good at it. Then while there he built a wholesome social media reputation of being a family man. Then he slowly built his reputation of being an honest and respectful food reviewer and stayed consistent with it. It takes a lot of small moving pieces to make one machine work.
@fazormcghee7936 true alot of it is luck. But the reason people love him is that he ain't afraid to give a bad and at times a terrible review, which is why alot of spots are wary of him(a bad review from him could ruin them). Which is something other reviewers don't really do it's either positive or average. I don't think I've ever seen another reviewer straight up say the food was bad.
UPVOTE THIS he should create an app for struggling restaurants and people can review them And then other community members can support the restaurant so they can survive
I really like the breakdown of his biography, of sorts, to where he made a great impact as of late. It was a very humble beginning and very endearing to see his progress. He seems to have an optimistic future.
First time I ever saw him on my FYP was him talking about how he didn't get anything to eat at a Gordan Ramsey restaurant because they couldn't guarantee no cross contamination with shellfish, which he's horribly allergic to. He saw health code issues, and spoke bluntly about it, all I thought was "DAMN, never going to that place, that sounds horrific." Next one was the pizza place, and seeing the effect his positive review had just made me want to try it. I notice that even when he gives something a low rating, he will say "but I don't like the texture, you might, and could really like it."
this is the type of story i love. what a great guy. never gave up and did what he had to do and didnt let fame get to his head. also love how chill he is - hes not screaming in your face like lots of other reviewers or being super over the top to the point you know theyre lying. gonna have to check him out!
Being black doesn’t make you immune to criticism. It’s not racist to criticize black people unless you are doing it solely on the basis of them being black. People have the right to their opinions, and when it comes to food, people like different stuff! Food is a very subjective experience. But customer service isn’t. It’s not really hard to be polite when you have minimal interactions with people. I’ve worked in restaurants since I was 13, never got a bad review on my service. Not even when I literally miscarried on shift, a very wanted child. It’s very easy to just be nice to people, even if you’re having a bad day. You probably won’t have to ever see this person again so it helps to just give them a decent dining experience and send them on their way. I’m glad that Keith Lee is honest in his reviews, and I’m equally glad to have been raised in the Motor City, too!
Wow!!! This was very well put together and Keith seems like a great guy. I just came across his TikTok when he reviewed the Mike & honey place. Yeah he had social media on fire that day lol
I'm only half way through, never heard of this man but already a HUGE fan. What an absolute legend. Unbreakable.
wow I didn't know about this guy until this video but this man deserves his success. Worked hard, didn't quit, stayed humble.
I first heard about Keith Lee after the Milk and Honey drama in Atlanta. Then I kinda fell down the Keith Lee rabbit hole.
I believe that the well-deserved recognition and admiration for Keith is due to his palpable commitment to being absolutely genuine and 100% himself at all times. When you have an extraordinary strength of character like Keith, it bleeds through any camera, microphone, recording, or crowded space. He is a truly good man with an unflappability in the face of anything. These are markers of charisma that suck people in like a black hole, they’re powerless to ignore or dismiss him. I love his videos in their simplicity. I respect his honesty, his devotion to God and family, and his genuine kind spirit that bleeds over into everything he does. As long as he is posting, I will be watching. Cheers!!
I've seen this man several times on social media but I never knew his relation with Kevin Lee nor have I heard him mention Kevin or Kevin mentioning Keith. I wonder and hope that these two successful brothers get along, who doesn't love a story like Keith's!
They do. He's cooking with his brother on his Thanksgiving video
Kevin Lee is a legend in his own right.
*Keith
@@MightyBeastYThis brother
@@MightyBeastYT Kevin Lee is the guy Conor Mcgregor stole his whole persona from.
@@MainerMMA haha!!
@@MainerMMAthis whole video i had one thought in my mind, "But where does Kevin Lee fit into all of this?"
Can’t lie didn’t know where you was going with this cause no Keith Lee bad talk is allowed but this is very well played. I’m from ATL and he told not one lie 🤷🏽♂️
I love when your videos are someone I've never even heard of before. Something about this guy seems very wholesome
It’s nice that Keith regularly gives big tips to small businesses, it’s heard warming!!!!!
I think everyone can agree Keith is truly a started from the bottom now we’re here kinda story. This overall outline was perfectly organized. By highlighting his childhood which helped in understanding where he came from. Overall a very dope video
The internet did make the right person famous, just like they have with you Mr. Patrick CC Your Documentaries are at the top of my and many others top list keep doing what you do, much love from Cali
This my friend was a great video, thank you!
I love Keith Lee! He actually helped me (without knowing) out of my funk. He gave me entertainment and a lot of inspiration for life and honestly don't know if I would've made it out of dark times without just general goodness and hope he brings. It wasn't just him it was a lot of people who helped me, but entertainers def helped me escape and inspire me to keep going.
This man has POWER and he got it all from the food industry, him and Ramsey two top tier beasts when it comes to food
I'm so glad someone is posting the Atlanta stuff. That kind of service is typical annoying "just trying to get some bloody food" sort of thing we all experience
Honestly I found the The Real Milk and Honey situation HILARIOUS. Like bruh even before Keith came if you checked their reviews dated before he showed up they were mostly negative. Also as someone who has been to Atlanta I have to say so much of ATLANTA is exactly like that, they basically block you from getting food out the door period, hell one time after I was finished eating but wanted to take some food home I got told that the food I want to take “won’t be as good later” and that I can’t take it to go because I “may leave a bad review” Like bruh wtf kinda bullshit is that.
Great videos. I'm a Keith Lee fan now. Thank you 🙏🏽
I am happy for Keith I remember him back when he first started and it had to suck being in Kevin's shadow. Its inspiring seeing how far he has come and has still stayed humble. I hope Kevin can turn his life around also. Great piece Patrick.
He has. Kevin converted to Islam a couple years ago.
I teared up at the end, Keith really seems like such a humble and nice guy. Great video as always!
great video man, I appreciate the attention to detail.
Love how your videos get me invested into these people I've never heard of before. And even more ironic, I've lived in Vegas for the last 10 years (by the way, I'm from NJ, love watching content from a fellow NYY/NYG/NJD/NYK fan) and I have no clue who Keith Lee is.
He did one review... that got him on National Television... and that is how I got to know of him... that girl that called him to come try the Pizza Place where she worked.... they had no customers but she said that the owner/her boss was a nice man and the food was good.... Keith changed that man's life over night... keith was already established in vegas... he now went national. Frankensons
