At least he's got some personality, unlike most men in porn. I actually even thought he was kind of funny in a scene I just saw where he was paired with some sweet white girl that he really seemed to appreciate. He commented that he had just come down from Hollywood where he had scene another white girl and he was like "Damn, why I gotta be black?" At first I thought "What a self-loathing thing to say" but then he illucidated that he knew that he was kind of scary looking and knew that he couldn't pull most white girls because of his thug-like nature. As another Big Black Guy (tm) I totally empathized with him. He said some other funny things and then fucked the hell out of his partner. I realized that while some people don't like him running his mouth, he at least brings some genuine passion and personality to scenes that is otherwise lacking in the vast majority of porn, and for that, he deserves some recognition. There is no doubt at all that he liked plowing white girls pussies and asses and it comes through. I would *almost* say the same thing about Rico Strong, but he lacks the likeable charisma that Wesley has. Anyone agree/disagree? Topic Moved by - killbillvol69 on Jun 4 2013
A9NOSTIC - Pipes IS a unique talent, and a one of kind in porn. He does have personality and I will admit that he has said some pretty funny things during his porn scenes. Plus, if you grew up in the 'hood you probably know someone like him, so his deal is familiar. But he does have negatives that sometimes inhibit my porn enjoyment. First, I don't think he's all that great a woodsman. Then, in multiple people scenes, (he seems to be in a lot of them that I watch), I can't stand his propensity to direct during the scene: "You go here, now you go there, now you do this, put her leg over here, hold her head down, I'll do this, no you do that,...", on and on. Finally, in his one on one scenes, there is the constant narration that is his signature, and that everybody complains about. I like verbalizing and vocalization in my porn. From the girl and the guy. People are supposed to be enjoying themselves. Sex is not supposed to be silent. But Pipes is too much. At some point it becomes an annoyance and a distraction. He's funny to listen to when you're watching porn while clownin' with your boys. But when you are watching alone, concentrating on your favorite porn girl, tryin' to get your jack on, and your find yourself constantly saying,: "SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY!!!", while you're tryin' to bust a nutt, that's too much. That's when you wish he had a governor on that mouth. BSD P.S. - I agree. Pipes has more personality than Mandingo and is nowhere near as annoying as Rico Strong.
Watching a scene with him makes me wanna take a cheese grater to my face then douse it in salt.So i guess i'm in the disagree camp. Edited by - simpsona on 6/5/2013 12:00:18 PM
I'm in the "disagree camp". He trash talks way too much for me to enjoy a scene. James Deen and Johnny Sins bring passion to their scenes but they won't jibber jabber throughout their scenes.

I find him funny at times, but at the same time when I watched his scene with an girl it can be annoyance. The same thing with Manuel Ferrara, I don't like when he put his nasty feet on a girls butt or boobs, and ever sticking his toes in her mouth which killed it for me. BTW I never seen Wesley done scenes with the A-List girls who do IR like Kagney Linn Karter, Jayden Jaymes, Lisa Ann, Tori Black (when she did B/G) or Alexis Ford. He always worked with B List girls.
I'll take Wesley's jabber anytime over some of the quiet automaton robotic pumping machines. There is nearly zero dialog in porn. Probably not enough profit left in the industry to include the preparation and acting skill necessary.
I think for certain types of scenes Wesley can be entertaining. I think he does the agressive black man/thug/gangster/scary black guy thing well and in those types of scenes the chatter works and enhances things. If he isn't doing that type of scene it doesn't work...or it awardly becomes that type of scene. I'd be willing to bet that the directors that use Wesley actually like what he does. If they didn't they'd tell him to stop and be quiet. I wouldn't want all male performers to be as vocal as Wesley but at this point it's his "gimmick/hook" at you know what to expect so I don't mind it. I actually wish more guys would talk more if they have something entertaining to say but perhaps not as much as Wesley.
^ Funny.... and nice to know some male pornstars still can get all worked up over some female pornstars. You'd think with all the sex and different girls they get on a regular basis they'd be jaded about all the girls.
The only way I can enjoy a scene featuring Wesley Pipes is if I turn the sound off. His constant talking gets tiresome and annoying really fast. So I guess I'm disagreeing with the starter of this thread.
Just had to comment that Wesley is is one of my favourate black performers. Adds humor to the scene unlike lex and mandingo who need to retire. If there is one complaint i have about jules jordans work, it is that he sticks with these two performers rather than working with guys like Wesley, Boz and Richard mann.
Wesley has had some really hilarious moments in front of the camera and he seems to be another guy who wanted a legit acting career and ended up in porn. He's no Don Cheadle but he has a raunchy lightness that offsets his tough guy looks. He has worked with Julia Ann and Aurora Snow so he can work with big marquee ladies.

^ I think he is the black male version of Nick Manning.
I like Wesley Pipes. His humorous comments reminds me of the early Ron Jeremy. And he seems to be genuinely into the women he fucks. All shapes, all sizes, all ages, all colors. Also he seems to be aware of the viewer and the camera and how things are gonna look onscreen. Probably this explains the "propensity to direct" comment from BSD. I think he might make a good director; most pornguys (seemingly) don't have that awareness of the camera/viewer or of the finished product, and get in the way of the camera or move the wrong way or position their body wrongly, or otherwise unknowingly trash the scenes. Also Wesley is in tune with his female partner, and does not automatically try to destroy them. He can dish it out if the girl can handle it. But if she cannot handle it he can tone down the intensity while still delivering a good scene. The jibber-jabber can be annoying at times, but the positives make up for that one negative.
I just watched Wesley in I Like Black Boys 10 , in his two scenes with Lilith Lust and Penny Pax , he's wearing a cock ring . I also noticed that in Lisa Ann's Black out , any other scenes where he does that ? Edited by - jakejd4949 on 11/10/2013 8:02:43 AM
He and Rico Strong were good and added to the dp of Veronica Avluv in Freaky Milfs. Too many times guys distract from the scene instead of making it more intense. He usually adds to scenes. I'd like to see her with them again.
Whats this im hearing that Wesley has been diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer..? some other sites are saying theres a gofundme page set up to donate for his medical bills.. if this is true,then what a shame..
Its a very sad news for pipes . This means that his career is over . I hope everything will be fine for him . He has done some great scenes all these years .
I found the gofundme page, but interestingly the two comments at the bottom claim it is fake and Wesley doesn't really have cancer: http://www.gofundme.com/j4m51g
He's probably the only Black actor I like who is ghetto. Probably, because he's not trying tough act, or be cool. That's just the way he is. He's doing less scenes now, because, he's trying to get into the rap artist game.
Yikes. I hope Wesley is ok. I like hearing him talk as a gag, but to be honest, as a black dude myself, I find him too ugly for porn. I just can't get in to the scene when I see this junk yard dog looking fool banging these girls. I'm clean cult dude, and I want to picture myself as the actor.
Hey guys... It is terrible hearing about this...but I think it is true. I was read Mimefreak's thread yesterday. He was also commenting on it. Very sad. If the career is over, that's one thing...the word inopperable is what's fucked up...I wish Wesley all the best.

thats hard stuff for any person ,wish him all the best.
I generally find him intolerable in a scene due to his almost constant trash talking but inoperable lung cancer is a really shitty deal. I genuinely do wish the best for him.
Wesley Pipes is one of the greatest male porn stars ever. He bought charisma, personality, humor, and straight up fucking to the scenes. No wood problems like these floppy dudes today. Wesley is a legend and I would like to wish him godspeed in this challenge he currently going through. Wesley: You are GREATLY missed my Brother. Get well soon. And it's just too dam bad that I won't get to see you brake off some Black dick to a chick like Cassidy Banks. :) Edited by - Escaped Slave on 2/3/2016 7:42:11 AM
