Last week comedy fan fave Anthony 'AJ' Johnson died broke forcing his wife to plead with the public for help with his burial costs [click here if you missed that].
Comedian Rel Howery steps up to lead the charge...
As of this morning Rel Howery's $4,000.00 was the largest donation to the GoFundMe set up for AJ's funeral expenses. The GoFundMe has more than doubled it's initial $20,000.00 fundraising goal.

$43,000+. That is more than enough to bury him.
That was nice of him and that is a good pic of AJ.
OMG, everybody knows that he has been strung out for the past decade. I'm sure people are giving more than asked for to help AJ's widow with other expenses.
This is starting to look like a cash grab for the ex-wife. They can take it down now. They have enough money for burial.
Where are the donations from the
other, Wealthy Black Comedians that know & have worked with him??? The general public should not have to foot these expenses if they would step-up. RIP AJ...
Even if a family doesn't have insurance, a little savings can go a long ways.
That was generous. If they raise more than asked, I'm sure that can go to help with his child and other expenses. Perhaps a college fund or something of that nature. Let's hope GoFundMe gives it up. I see a lot of claims that they find inventive ways not to pay recipients.
Cube's Silence Is VERY LOUD-
He Robbed Him In Death. Why NOT Right His Transition.
Hope AJ Is At Peace.
Stay Woke~

Cube has always been an asshole. I never liked him. From the way he treated Michel'e about the movie to the way he behaved recently with the so called "Black agenda" meetings he wanted with the Trump administration. Ive never liked him so Im not surprised he has not spoken out publicly or helped..
It always tickled me also that out of NWA he was the one with the 2 parent household and decent upbringing but wrote and rapped all of that degenerate bullshit..These are the people the Black community celebrates as icons...
Go figure..
Perhaps the extra funds can help the family with bills and other things. I appreciate Rev and everyone that contributed to send AJ Johnson.
AJ had a wife, children and grandchildren and while this money won't bring him back, the money will help to give him a nice burial celebration and help with some bills.

How do you know $43,00.00+ is enough to bury him??? Who are you his family's accountant?? When your ass dies I hope your one family member buries you in a cardboard box in the city dump next to the other dead rats.
Cube ain't shit. So much for that black platinum plan to help black Americans smh. That only conveniently appeared a month before the 2020 election. But, he's super quiet on AJ and the very public GoFundMe account that his wife had to establish.
Meanwhile, Friday is showing on BET every weekend. I swear, some niggas ain't shit smdh.
Also, M. Black said he donated $10k, where's that at?
Cube was the FIRST one to come out withn kind words and condolences to the family. We should not be so quick to judge. Truth is we have no Idea what Cube has or has not done. Just because we dont see it on go fundme DOES NOT mean he hasnt helped.
