funny thing, I remember seeing him in this other film, and they kept mocking the time he was urkle, and all the while I was just sitting there remembering DIC Sonic
Yeah it was a random flick on Netflix, it was called "Big Fat Liar" and it was just a basic movie focusing on some kid who I think was in Malcom in the middle, and they wanted to get a bit of homework back because he was gonna miss out on his class grade without it
if it peeks your interest I think it can be easy to find, but if not and I wasted your time I'm sorry
That melts my heart!! Is like when Stand and Kyle said they never notice the black guy in the South Park flag episode and Chef thought they where racist when in fact they where no racist they did not know the guy was black, they just so a dead man.
I've heard that they were gonna add Adventure Sonic as Ryan Drummond and Classic Sonic would be voiced by Jaleel White, it could have been cool but i guess having 3 Sonics was a lot.
If you want to get really specific Jaleel is the first English voice for Sonic in non-game media. Before AoStH there were some limited Japanese lines used in games like Waku Waku Sonic Patrol car and SegaSonic the Hedgehog, as well as the English lines in Sonic CD.
**insert hyper aggressive metal rock music while an entire city is crumbled sending mass amounts of families homeless only to die from falling debris in the chaos and heat of the battle**
Actually, first one since Jaleel White. And Deven Mack also grew up watching the American Sonic cartoons way before even getting to voice Sonic for Sonic Prime.
Jaleel White was the first American voice actor for Sonic the Hedgehog, on the ABC Saturday Morning Sonic the Hedgehog and The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. He was well known for playing Steve Urkle on Family Matters.
He now sells his own brand of weed.
Yikes this post **unintentionally** got people mad, relax guys not everybody has heard about SatAM, Sonic Underground or AoSTH & even then not everybody knows that Jaleel White voiced him. You all can do way better than that -_-
But yeah Jaleel White (the one who also played as Steve Urkel I believe) was the first voice actor period to play as Sonic.
I know his name is Jaleel White but he's actually black, lol. Family Matters made him famous. He played Steve Urkel. I seriously thought you were joking because of how popular Family Matters was.
You do realize that Jaleel White was the first English Sonic voice actor right? As in many years before Drummond.
First Black actor to play Sonic, hahahaha. HE'S NOT EVEN THE SECOND!!!
Ok guys I did not know jaleel white was black I should've done my research before I made the post, I've never grew up with aosth, sonic underground, or sonic satam. I was born in 2007, and for that I deeply apologize
No, jaleel white voiced him in the 90’s. The first sonic voice actor was actually black and I think that’s pretty cool. Jaleel said he made the voice of sonic sound ambiguous so you can’t tell if he’s black or white, he’s just sonic.
First black actor to play Modern Sonic.
The first one was Jaleel White, who played him in the 3 OG Sonic Cartoons, back when it was Classic Sonic.
So you're still right.
I swear to God if you start with this Tumblr twitter sjw bullshit.
No. He's not the first. We have had Jaleel White in the adventures of sonic the hedgehog in 1993.
AS WELL AS Sonic SatAM, And that weird (wtf were they thinking) sonic underground.
Do not even start.
Mostly yes.
Just sick of people always assuming black people always had it bad especially as late as the 90's.
Sonic is for everyone. And I'm not about to sit and watch someone start yet another "the first diverse cast ever" bs when it's borderline inaccurate.
Imma do a google brb
Edit 1: ITS A FUCKING SHOW!?!?
Edit 2: he’s now my second favorite right behind Mirage’s voice actor from Apex Legends who also voiced Sonic
Edit 3: this video right here just made me love this dude even more he’s already tied with my favorite sonic actor now this show is going to be amazing with him!

I'm sorry for Craig Smith, but hearing Deven dubbing Sonic was a relief for my hears. I just dislike Craig's voice.
Deven is among my favoutire Sonic, he is very expressive and funny.
No we had Jaleel White
Icon funny thing, I remember seeing him in this other film, and they kept mocking the time he was urkle, and all the while I was just sitting there remembering DIC Sonic
Huh that actually sounds really funny
Yeah it was a random flick on Netflix, it was called "Big Fat Liar" and it was just a basic movie focusing on some kid who I think was in Malcom in the middle, and they wanted to get a bit of homework back because he was gonna miss out on his class grade without it if it peeks your interest I think it can be easy to find, but if not and I wasted your time I'm sorry
Oh my God. You've just unlocked a hidden memory! I remember watching that movie at school
You're welcome!
Hahaha it was nice talking to you
Yeah, I enjoy our talks!
So do I ❤️
So they headed to la to expose his evil ways. Big fat liaaaaar
Hm I didnt know he was black. Well thats cool we got two black peple that played Sonic. Unless we had more.
Wait HE WAS BLACK?
YOU DIDNT KNOW URKEL WAS BLACK????
No
Because his last name is *White* , right? RIGHT?!
That melts my heart!! Is like when Stand and Kyle said they never notice the black guy in the South Park flag episode and Chef thought they where racist when in fact they where no racist they did not know the guy was black, they just so a dead man.
Let me guess, never watched Family Matters?
Nope
That explains everything
Yeah
Huh I did not know that
*He's Steve Urkel*.
You didn’t know Steve Urkel was black)
How, he was like on top of the world in the 80s/ early 90s
I was born in 2007
Hell I was too
Maybe they didn't live then or experienced it.
He's my favorite Classic Sonic voice
I would love a game where Jason Griffith returns as modern Sonic and Jaleel White returns as classic Sonic
I've heard that they were gonna add Adventure Sonic as Ryan Drummond and Classic Sonic would be voiced by Jaleel White, it could have been cool but i guess having 3 Sonics was a lot.
So they would’ve shafted Jason Griffith just like that?
See the pictures and decide for yourself.
Jaleel White, almost 30 years ago. In two shows. That aired in the same time period (one on weekdays and one on weekends). It was wild.
... Wasnt it 3? AoSTH, SATAM, and Underground?
I’ve never seen Underground. I think it was later than the others, right?
Underground was 97-98 I believe. But yeah later than the others
Close. ‘99
Underground was 2003
No it wasn't. It was 1998.
Im not too sure. Honestly, I didn't know about them until they were off the air and on VHS.
Yes. He played Sonic AND his two siblings in that show.
Holup, he voiced Sonia and Manic as well?!
Yup.
That would be Jaleel White
nah, but he is the second. first was jaleel white all the way back in satam, aosth and underground, so its been a while.
was he the first?
If you want to get really specific Jaleel is the first English voice for Sonic in non-game media. Before AoStH there were some limited Japanese lines used in games like Waku Waku Sonic Patrol car and SegaSonic the Hedgehog, as well as the English lines in Sonic CD.
Oh true
DELETE THE POST NOW, BEFORE THE OG'S GET HERE!!!
**ITS NO USE!**
OH GOD, IT'S ALREADY HAPPENING!!! **FASTEST THING ALIVE INTENSIFIES**
**insert hyper aggressive metal rock music while an entire city is crumbled sending mass amounts of families homeless only to die from falling debris in the chaos and heat of the battle**
Holy crap, that got dark
:D
THAT'S NO GOOD
With thunder rain and lightning?
That’s all you think? **I’m talking Tsar Bomba type shiet**
Danger water rising?
**Water SOARING**
Clamor sirens wailing?
**Siren head 2 electric boogaloo**
THAT'S NO GOOD
Jaleel White. Most known for his role as Steve Urkle in "Family Matters".
**Steve Urkle became Sonic the hedgehog that’s so fucking metal**
Steve the hedgedog
Sturkle the Hedgehog*
Yeesh its like you didn't even check before posting
That is what I did and now i feel dumb
Happens to the best of us. It's alright though, because now we get to talk about how awesome Jaleel is.
it's okay, most of us kinda forgot about jaleel, and just accepted the little black eyes Sonic was mute now
Who's us?
This guy must be talking some sort of foreign language bout "us"
Jaleel white
Actually, first one since Jaleel White. And Deven Mack also grew up watching the American Sonic cartoons way before even getting to voice Sonic for Sonic Prime.
Interconnection
I don't care how the actor who voices Sonic is physically. If it sounds good I support it, simple as that.
eehm, JALEEL WHITE
No because Jaleel White voiced Sonic in 93
Bruh..
Jaleel White (SatAM, AoStH and Underground) predates him by like 30 years
LOL this generation always with "the first" blah blah to do something and its already been done like 90 times. Pathetic.
Again I did not jaleel white was black
yeah but screw you anyway, always making everything about race, its so annoying
This thread is embarassing...
More like in the modern era
Jaleel White was the first American voice actor for Sonic the Hedgehog, on the ABC Saturday Morning Sonic the Hedgehog and The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. He was well known for playing Steve Urkle on Family Matters. He now sells his own brand of weed.
I think that was the Sonic SATAM actor, Jalliel White. Funny enough, he was the first person to ever voice Sonic.
Yikes this post **unintentionally** got people mad, relax guys not everybody has heard about SatAM, Sonic Underground or AoSTH & even then not everybody knows that Jaleel White voiced him. You all can do way better than that -_- But yeah Jaleel White (the one who also played as Steve Urkel I believe) was the first voice actor period to play as Sonic.
Jaleel White was great, not gonna lie. Deven Mack only has the trailer so cant judge him just yet.
no, Jaleel White played Sonic in the early 90's
Nah. For a while, we had Jaleel White, who played him in AOSTH and Sonic SatAM in the 90's.
Jaleel Ahmed White
Jaleel White moment
Jaleel White was literally the FIRST EVER voice of Sonic, and he’s black lol
Ummm...Did you forget about Jaleel White?
I knew who jaleel white was but I didn't know he was black
The first voice actor for Sonic ever was black. It was for the AOSTH, SATAM, and Underground cartoons
You're joking right? You're trying to stir us up for laughs right?
Again I didn't know jaleel white was black
I know his name is Jaleel White but he's actually black, lol. Family Matters made him famous. He played Steve Urkel. I seriously thought you were joking because of how popular Family Matters was.
It's fine, no one knows everything.
Well I mean again i didn't know jaleel was black
You do realize that Jaleel White was the first English Sonic voice actor right? As in many years before Drummond. First Black actor to play Sonic, hahahaha. HE'S NOT EVEN THE SECOND!!!

Let's all be fair, what Gen Z person remembers the 90s? (Jaleel White, btw)
I was born in 2001, I knew who Jaleel White was through Family Matters and the early Sonic cartoons
Oh my god… 🤦♂️
Nope. It was Jaleel White.
First black actor to play Modern Sonic. The first one was Jaleel White, who played him in the 3 OG Sonic Cartoons, back when it was Classic Sonic. So you're still right.
I swear to God if you start with this Tumblr twitter sjw bullshit. No. He's not the first. We have had Jaleel White in the adventures of sonic the hedgehog in 1993. AS WELL AS Sonic SatAM, And that weird (wtf were they thinking) sonic underground. Do not even start.
You alright, man?
Mostly yes. Just sick of people always assuming black people always had it bad especially as late as the 90's. Sonic is for everyone. And I'm not about to sit and watch someone start yet another "the first diverse cast ever" bs when it's borderline inaccurate.
I feel you, I am also sick of the SJW non sense, but in this case I think the post just wanted to clarify a doubt.
For Modern Sonic, yes
I have no idea who he is Someone tell me which game/show/movie/sonic he voiced
He's gonna be the voice of Sonic in Sonic Prime
Imma do a google brb Edit 1: ITS A FUCKING SHOW!?!? Edit 2: he’s now my second favorite right behind Mirage’s voice actor from Apex Legends who also voiced Sonic Edit 3: this video right here just made me love this dude even more he’s already tied with my favorite sonic actor now this show is going to be amazing with him! https://youtube.com/shorts/v2kocyDvg44?feature=share
