So you're saying he's such a great comedian that he doesn't even have to tell jokes anymore? 😂 Believe me...some of us have noticed. His specials are definitely not half as funny as the Chapelle Show, and that's being generous.
True the best comedians can talk about something serious or intellectual and it’s just funny because they’re funny. Patrice O’Neal is a great example too. He could be breaking down male and female psychology and have everyone in stitches
This man had the audience in the palm of his hand for almost 18 minutes. Masterful storytelling. Doesn't matter if they're jokes or he's relating a life lesson learned the hard way. Chapelle is a legend.
they're kinda the same thing except for comedy is a subset of storytelling. I say it's a subset because not every story is comedy, but every comedian who isn't a good storyteller isn't a good comedian.
They were laughing from anxiety because it's real, and ancient: innocent, decent person gets screwed. That explains their laughter and their silence. Laughing because it exposes a truth that causes anxiety; silence in the face of a shame that transcends a name.
A lot of people were just clapping where they're not supposed to, it's so cringeworthy. I guess it's because they were probably drunk and wanted entertainment, like poking a monkey and saying do something.
This isn't the real Chappelle and anybody who thinks it is isn't a lifetime Chappelle fan. This imposter isn't funny at all. The real Dave was 1000x funnier then this cløne.
Dave isnt just a master comedian, hes a masterful rhetorician. He tells stories at such a high level, with perfect timing, pauses, inflection... I mean, its incredible. The audience was captivated for nearly 20 minutes. If the story had lasted an hour, they would have likely have been just as invested, too
How he had every single person in that room hanging onto his every word without telling a single joke the whole time is beyond me. Dave Chapelle is truly the greatest story teller to ever do it.
I think those ppl there were brain dead honestly. They would start clapping and cheering when Dave was being serious talking about how he got fucked over bc it was in the contract. Even before that you had a handful of ppl slow clapping confused if they should clap or not
My sister met Dave in a Walmart parking lot. He was smoking a cigarette outside of a tour bus and my sister pulled up and said "Hey has anyone told you that you look like dave chapelle?" Dave said, "millions of people tell me I look like Dave Chapelle." My sister said omg dave you are a legend. My sister is a nurse and Dave told my nephews that their mom is a legend. Gotta love Dave even in real life
I met Dave outside of his hotel in Indianapolis right after he started performing again I was like 15 maybe 16 and I loved His work lol first thing he told me when he walked up was don’t do drugs kid. 😂because I was freaking out that I was meeting dave Chappelle and it was just gold he gave me and a bunch of other people autographs and I got a picture with him too
It’s a good feeling to hear Dave Chappelle express his feelings because you can hear the hurt in his voice, if anyone deserves to be free from the greed of Hollywood it’s Dave chappelle, he does nothing but produce the funniest content in the history of comedy
The way he told this story with an introduction, an example, a rise a climax and an end. It was very impressive. If you listened to this story, you will never forget it because it was told perfectly.
That was raw and intense but, more than that, it was absolutely genius. Chappelle's emotions were conveyed straight to me and he made me feel the way he felt. Genius. Absolute genius.
There have been a few. Bette Davis is one, maybe the first. The giant she went against was Warner Brothers, during the era when the studios ruled the lives of their contracted actors.
There is no person on the planet that can tell a story like Dave can. Man, when he gets into it, you cant help but be glued to your monitor. Fixed on him. Hes a marvelous story teller.
And Charlie Murphy...omg..those two stories he tells about chillen wit Rick James...i cried for about an hour STRAIGHT. Hands down most captivating story teller.
That "all of them being friends" is a real thing. I just finished a divorce hearing against my ex wife and after the hearing i went to the bathroom. I came back out into the lobby and heard both lawyers and the judge all laughing and joking. It was then I realized that the show they put on in the courtroom was all a show. I thought it was odd that my attorney didn't put up a fight the way I wanted him to but I figured he knew what was best....for himself. Lesson learned.
More often than not comedians are more like philosophers nowadays. They’re only funny cause reality today is stranger than fiction. No better funny material than the truth
@matt mcdermitt I have a great appreciation for comedians who use their talent to expose bullshit. George Carlin died more of a philosopher than a comedian in my mind. As I grew up, everything George said became less of a joke to me and more of a realization of how right he was about society. Dave doesn't hold a torch to Carlin, but I appreciate that he's using his platform to voice serious societal issues.
Read the Quran. The truth is in the book; if you are truly wise, you can understand. how we have all these different sects of people but who decided not religion but the liars between us that you never know where you stand with.
I wouldn't see it as "killing" him. Keeping a person alive and forcing them into a new line of work could be a net gain for that person, especially when "the man's livelihood" is simply scamming people. That being said, I think that "scam" can be applied much more broadly than it currently is.

I’m just learning about Dave Chapelle. Never really paid much attention to him or his comedy; I am blown away by his openness, his honesty and incredible talent as a story teller. I cannot compare him to any past nor present comedian, he is unique, and so is his VOICE. The man has no malice, he pokes fun at the singularities of the races, cultures and choices we make.
Dave was saying something without having to spell it out. The monster is the industry which is the global elite or “Illuminati” who control all celebrities. They do anything to keep their “artists” in check and that’s evident with what happened to Chappelle. The minute he had enough and took a stand, they started their typical smear campaign and made up stuff to try to put their puppet back on the string. Chappelle should be applauded for taking a stand against this evil system although him continuing to speak on it makes me worry for his safety. Any past people who have spoken out so openly were either jailed or killed.
Your career as a comedian will live on forever. You've done so much to bring people together in common laughter. The insanity of the times we live will pass, and you'll always be remembered as a legend that upheld the best virtues of humanity.
Dave knows what’s really going on. He knows how the people at the top of the pyramid control us the peasants. He is telling us to wake up and take charge of our lives.... Dave is beyond genius 🙏🙏💪💪
Chappelle is amusing but he just isn't that funny. Louis CK is funnier and Carlin was better at lecturing. Chapelle is a good mix of the two (because, by God, Carlin just was not funny at all, and Louis CK doesn't preach), which makes him amusing.
His delivery is remarkable. Even if someone doesn't like him or his comedy, I would recommend this clip as an example of how to tell a story, speak to an audience, make a speech. He is such a great storyteller.
Dave educates through comedic storytelling, his intellect is on another level. He is, to me, the greatest comedian I’ve ever seen. That includes Pryor and Carlin. His ability to relate to every person is so amazing that he puts himself on another echelon.
John Harris, you are absolutely correct about Dave's life adventures and how he reaches people through telling his stories and jokes through comedy. He's literally in the top 3 who's comedy and jokes actually makes me laugh HILARIOUSLY.
Totally agree. Carlin was always a hero to me, still is, and so is Dave Chappelle. Chappelle's magic is that he can make you feel sad, introspective, provoke your thoughts and be incredibly funny all in one act.
To go see Dave Chappelle, expecting to laugh your ass off, and instead watch him monologue about all of his life experiences, must have been a terrific time. The dude can tell a story, goddamn.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that the crowd isn’t breaking out in applause after everything he says. It’s real, it’s nice ..no show biz claps . Dave keeps silencing them lol
dave is a smart guy . he must know that without comedy central he would not have what he has today and not be what he is today which is a very rich and famous guy . to me he is coming off like a complainer and whiner .
Except when they were awkwardly clapping for HBO when he was clearly telling a story about how they were stealing his content and not paying him for it
Every person should granted that type of understanding. His strength can be seen as an inspiration and so can others still under the same situation and have a smaller Mic to air their story.
What a human being Dave is, he's remarkable and these streaming monsters, company that owned his show really didnt deserve Dave for what they did. Incredible storyetelling, lore about Dave Chappelle people need to listen.
@@niks660097 well, there also was the daily show with John Stewart, also South Park and a few other big names with incredible talent. Just saying... Love Dave though and how they treated him was utterly wrong.
Truth matters -- even if it takes decades to reveal. Dave has been through hell and back, but he is stronger for it. A good lesson for all of us. Thanks Dave.
He speaks to so many, yet still finds a way of making you feel like he’s only talking to you. He knows his worth, he knows his craft better than almost anybody ever has. Kind people get their reward in the end, and I hope we bring to him even a fraction of the joy that he has given us over the last 20+ years.
He has a way of making you forget that it’s a comedy show so that when a joke lands the value is increased by the sincerity. George Carlin was also able to pull that off. Not many can.
I enjoyed that little story rant more than any comedic skit. Need more people standing up for themselves nowadays. With social media, all you have to do is get society on your side and the corporations will tremble!

I had a father who was very wise, and told me many lessons in life. Dave's children are very lucky that they have a wise father who will educate them with ever valuable life lessons. Despite the fame, his modesty and grounded character are something to behold and admire! Thank you for all your education, Mr Chappelle.
I, my sisters and I had that same blessing! My Poppy always talked about principles! It irked me until I started applying those principles. What a gift that man was in my life! He wasn't perfect but he always apologized for his errors. He taught me how to be a bigger person. Yes, that's what I believe Dave teaches his children, how to move through this world with principles even when they don't see others reflect any! Thanks for your post! And, yes, thanks to Mr. Chappelle!
I don’t think I laughed a single time in this video, and yet I still watched and was captivated by it. Dave Chapelle is truly one of, if not the best speaker of the current age.
His material is relatable and well thought out. It's not comedy anymore - it's storytelling at a doctorate level. That's what makes it so hard to replicate.
Man I agree, it kinda makes me sad how dumb the people are in this video, it's like they didn't even realize that he's putting his heart out there,especially when they were cheering at the part when he expressed that he couldn't even use his name, because it is the contract. People are so dumb.... Dave's an absolute legend
@@velzun8075 No I just don’t find someone’s serious story about having their livelihood stolen and being taken advantage of to be very funny, especially when the person telling it doesn’t find it funny either.
He just said do not rewatch his stolen work you . H. J. !! Is this his channel?? Thought not , you worth less P. O. S. Think about that, really ruminate on it ! During your next marathon S. E. X. sesh with your birth mother!
@@cocksure8430 if you think everything said at a comedy show is going to be funny, it sounds to me like you haven't been to many comedy shows. I'm sure Dave had plenty of haha along with these more serious words in this set. When you see a dramatic performance do you expect nothing funny to be said, as well? (rhetorical question, btw)
I sincerely find Dave to be one of the best speakers - not just comedians - in the world. The tone, pacing, patience, body language, everything is just so sublime. THE storyteller.
I remember when he walked away from Comedy Central and The Chapelle Show.. They put it out there that he had lost his mind, that he was crazy, schizophrenic and had retired and moved away to Africa. I even remember hearing that he was a crack addict. None of that sat right with me. But people believed it. Glad to see him back, despite people still trying to tear him down.
Then they got their guard dog Oprah to interview him and she asked him loaded questions that she knew he couldn't answer out of contractual obligations.
@HolyHammerOfByzantium Id like to normally think I wouldnt fall for this shit but it was hard not too at the time when he just vanished and they were allowed to set the narrative. It's fucked up, if Dave ever comes out, ill stump up for a show to see the dude.
I’ve always like his comedy. But the profound intelligence and sincerity this man possesses just leaves me speechless. I will boycott Chapelle show for Dave.
This is old, you can watch the show now, he got paid: “When you stopped watching it, they called me,” Chappelle, 47, said in the clip. “And I got my name back, and I got my license back, and I got my show back, and they paid me millions of dollars. Thank you very much.”
He worked out a deal with ViacomCBS they paid him and he gave Netflix his blessing to bring Chappelle's show back. Congrats Dave and you're welcome for doing what you asked us as fans to do 💪
Dave learned in a very short time what it took me 30 years to finally accept. People it happens in real life. Everyday jobs. Especially medicine careers.
Every young artist needs to watch this the moment they decide to go pro. Thank you for sharing your horrible experience for the sake of our future, Dave Chapel.
So horrible. It’s a crying shame a comic dreaming of making it big, was afforded the opportunity every other comic will only ever dream of, became rich wind famous and never has to work another day in his life. I’m so sad for him. Hopefully this awful outcome doesn’t happen to anyone else.
And then finally he got his rights back for the show by people doing nothing . By not watching his show. That is powerful. It shows you how much power we have if we all band together and not participate in something to make a change. Brilliant. Well done Dave . I love you so much as a human being. The Goat of comedy.
With that....... I can tell you that I have imagined what we can do banded together like a tight knit FAMILY of people against corrupt government, against Evil Career Politicians I have seen us, as a people, strike and take back OUR country from the greedy bastards what are keeping us divided. Well I imagined it, I won't be around to witness it but. I know the day is coming
This is all the evidence I need. Dave Chappelle’s primary avenue is comedy but he’s not a comedian he’s a rhetorician…a master or the spoken word. He definitely operates at a high level. A very unrecognized gift within our age, that of the storyteller. A master at work.
I've never seen his show on comedy central but have seen the Netflix specials. Have come to really like and appreciate his message. To me his comedy is a message with deep meaning to the world we live in today.
u know ur good at what u do when u can just go off on a tangent and still have the crowd glued to what ur saying dave is just different man no matter if hes tellin jokes or ranting about shit that rubbed him the wrong way during his come up he will always be entertaining
I gotta say. Not only is this guy funny and ahead of his time, he has the ability to bring people together. This divided country needs more laughter and then the love will follow.
I could listen to Dave all day, everyday. His philosophical outlook and stories of life are truly amazing. He just tells it how it is in the business that he has chosen. And what gets me is that they kicked him in the guts so many times, and ate him up and spat him out so many times, and he still is one of the biggest names in the game. Respect to the man and his struggles. He will always be a favourite of mine and my husband's.

In fact, look up when scientists were surprised at how few coding genes we have...they were first assuming a number around 100,000; turns out we have under 20,000 (the same as a mouse).
This was a sick video and a lesson ! Glad you took back what's yours DC and thank for the people that stop watching the show in order for him to gain that power back ! I want more stories from DC more entertaiment that the stand up that he does even though his stand up material is just on another level !
I'm so obsessed with this video. I watched it on Instagram several times. I kept replaying the last part where he got mad, dropped the mic, and walked out.
Learned a lot about the way he was treated and the fact he has been so open about it all to educate people is real cool. Got a whole new respect for mr. chappelle!
DC is helping mankind save itself from itself. Hes a genius, comedic yes (a legend and probably the GOAT in that sense), but a genius above all else, hes trying to teach us by putting a mirror up to us and saying see,,,see! I love the guy and appreciate him so much, hes a treasure.
Dave is a philosopher. The most captivating speaker alive. Every time he speaks it is so powerful. Whether its funny or not you know you are watching a legend and he always blows the doors down.
I literally was just thinking the exact same thing!! Kind of like Bruce Lee…only black lol (I’m black before anybody go there, and absolutely love them BOTH❤️❤️)
I took a legal education seminar once in copyright law. It was terrifying. The guy pointed out that when the Beatles released their last album, they had pre sold 100% of it. They received nothing from sales. The most important tip he gave for young musicians and entertainers was “Never give percentages in exchange for services. If you need management or lawyers or technicians, find a way to pay them cash.”
The coolest thing about Dave’s comedy is that he’s at such a high level of super stardom that people pay to go to his shows and here jokes but your really getting his life’s lessons plus jokes❤️❤️❤️😎🤙
in case anyone didn't know, after this boycott Comedy Central gave Dave back the license to his show and name and paid him. Legend absolute legend

Dave is so far above and beyond anyone in the Comedy game. He can tell stories that lock you in
I could listen to his stories for hours. The wisdom this guy has is applicable to anyone's walk of life
Wow you're beautiful
He is LITERALLY TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT HOLLYWOOD!!!!!
No lie John
I got stories to tell you till forever. How are you doing Nicky?
I like your comment
The only dude who can give a lecture and make everyone not even realize it
Amen hahahaha
The best comedians are the greatest storytellers
How bout it. The people clapping were not understanding the story. Made him shake his head.
I don’t want to toot my own horn; but I recognized the lecture.
@@robsimpson6537 exactly!!!
I love his comedy, but his serious "sit downs" are always gold.
His covid special 8:46 is one of the most thought provoking segments I've ever seen
His delivery is remarkable. Even if someone doesn't like him or his comedy, I would recommend this clip as an example of how to tell a story, speak to an audience, make a speech. He is such a great storyteller.
Dave educates through comedic storytelling, his intellect is on another level. He is, to me, the greatest comedian I’ve ever seen. That includes Pryor and Carlin. His ability to relate to every person is so amazing that he puts himself on another echelon.
That's why he's the goat! The goaaaat!!!!!
John Harris, you are absolutely correct about Dave's life adventures and how he reaches people through telling his stories and jokes through comedy. He's literally in the top 3 who's comedy and jokes actually makes me laugh HILARIOUSLY.
Totally agree. Carlin was always a hero to me, still is, and so is Dave Chappelle. Chappelle's magic is that he can make you feel sad, introspective, provoke your thoughts and be incredibly funny all in one act.
I for one find him very intelligent And funny.
The man is very intelligent. No wonder he’s so successful in his career. He was born to do this ❤❤❤
Dave is a storytelling master. A complete genius. The funniest most profound man I am lucky to live parallel to.
I totally agree with you, you cannot help but be amazed by how he tells his stories, he never disappoints, ever! Genius this man
To me he drags it too much, but the stories themselves are good.

You can't even tell whether Dave is a comedian or a storyteller or a motivational speaker. but whatever he is... He is Dave Chapelle. #Legend
This man is seriously the best story-teller out there ✨
To go see Dave Chappelle, expecting to laugh your ass off, and instead watch him monologue about all of his life experiences, must have been a terrific time. The dude can tell a story, goddamn.

"A comedian will never be taken seriously"
Let me introduce you to Mr. Chappelle.
The greatest story-teller of our time. My Homer, my Aristotle, my Socrates.
I grew up watching Dave and he's as clever and groundbreaking as ever, I respect his wish.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that the crowd isn’t breaking out in applause after everything he says. It’s real, it’s nice ..no show biz claps . Dave keeps silencing them lol
He want to talk real not get a big applause every min
They’re bored lol. They came for comedy
dave is a smart guy . he must know that without comedy central he would not have what he has today and not be what he is today which is a very rich and famous guy . to me he is coming off like a complainer and whiner .
Except when they were awkwardly clapping for HBO when he was clearly telling a story about how they were stealing his content and not paying him for it
@@superidol238 I promise you nobody gets bored listening to Dave Chappelle.
There’s nothing worse than feeling trapped and powerless.
Kudos to you, Dave.
Your strength is an inspiration.🥰
Every person should granted that type of understanding. His strength can be seen as an inspiration and so can others still under the same situation and have a smaller Mic to air their story.

What a human being Dave is, he's remarkable and these streaming monsters, company that owned his show really didnt deserve Dave for what they did. Incredible storyetelling, lore about Dave Chappelle people need to listen.
The multiple attempted slow claps that failed and Dave telling them "no" made me laugh so hard.
He didn’t just stand up for his jokes, but stood up for his rights. Real stand-up guy!
Mmmmmmmm spittin

And, he did it all while sitting down

It's not just athletes that get trapped but all performers. Artists, especially.
Dave has paid a huge price and yet still brings knowledge to the masses.
he was the only good thing about comedy central, they owe their existence to him, but sadly corporates can't look beyond their own ego..
@@niks660097 well, there also was the daily show with John Stewart, also South Park and a few other big names with incredible talent. Just saying...
Love Dave though and how they treated him was utterly wrong.
Knowledge on how to stay a victim. Dumbfuck could have started his own channel with him as the boss if he stuck it out a few more years.
@@kalebs.2409 they wouldn't have had the money for those without Chappelle. He put them on the map
Not laughing once.. isn’t he supposed to tell jokes?? People only laughed when he said « a bad bitch »
Dave is so profoundly wise and is such a great storyteller.
Truth matters -- even if it takes decades to reveal. Dave has been through hell and back, but he is stronger for it. A good lesson for all of us. Thanks Dave.
Thanks for that beautiful comment
He speaks to so many, yet still finds a way of making you feel like he’s only talking to you. He knows his worth, he knows his craft better than almost anybody ever has. Kind people get their reward in the end, and I hope we bring to him even a fraction of the joy that he has given us over the last 20+ years.
I agree 100%. It's fortunate that he signed with Netflix, but he was going to succeed no matter what.
@@LastBruhStanding that was a good ass play by netflix tbh
"Yo if we take this down im pretty sure we get dave chappelle
He has a way of making you forget that it’s a comedy show so that when a joke lands the value is increased by the sincerity. George Carlin was also able to pull that off. Not many can.
word!

He is wise beyond his years. Listening to him talk is mesmerizing. He always has this sense of knowing everything around him.

I had a father who was very wise, and told me many lessons in life. Dave's children are very lucky that they have a wise father who will educate them with ever valuable life lessons. Despite the fame, his modesty and grounded character are something to behold and admire! Thank you for all your education, Mr Chappelle.
I, my sisters and I had that same blessing! My Poppy always talked about principles! It irked me until I started applying those principles. What a gift that man was in my life! He wasn't perfect but he always apologized for his errors. He taught me how to be a bigger person. Yes, that's what I believe Dave teaches his children, how to move through this world with principles even when they don't see others reflect any! Thanks for your post! And, yes, thanks to Mr. Chappelle!
He comes from great enlightened people.

A true story teller. Chappelle is a genius
I don’t think I laughed a single time in this video, and yet I still watched and was captivated by it. Dave Chapelle is truly one of, if not the best speaker of the current age.
He's just mesmerizing
His material is relatable and well thought out. It's not comedy anymore - it's storytelling at a doctorate level. That's what makes it so hard to replicate.
Man I agree, it kinda makes me sad how dumb the people are in this video, it's like they didn't even realize that he's putting his heart out there,especially when they were cheering at the part when he expressed that he couldn't even use his name, because it is the contract. People are so dumb.... Dave's an absolute legend
If you didn't laugh at all you have a terrible sense of humor.
@@velzun8075 No I just don’t find someone’s serious story about having their livelihood stolen and being taken advantage of to be very funny, especially when the person telling it doesn’t find it funny either.
As a retired comic, this should be watched by every comedian starting in the business. Wise words.
Should it be watched by an audience expecting a comedy show?
He just said do not rewatch his stolen work you . H. J. !! Is this his channel?? Thought not , you worth less P. O. S. Think about that, really ruminate on it ! During your next marathon S. E. X. sesh with your birth mother!

@@cocksure8430 if you think everything said at a comedy show is going to be funny, it sounds to me like you haven't been to many comedy shows.

I sincerely find Dave to be one of the best speakers - not just comedians - in the world. The tone, pacing, patience, body language, everything is just so sublime. THE storyteller.
Amazing observation. The best are usually great storytellers.
It takes a lot experience, skill and wisdom to pull that off.
I just love the stand up comedy game and Dave is one of the greats. Such a natural narrator
A PURE WORK OF ART! A MASTERFUL MASTERPIECE OF A COMEDIAN! FELT LIKE I WAS IN THE CROWD!
I will never watch that show again until you get paid brother.
Lucky for me i bought the DVDs lol
@@sebastiencote503 Umm.. you still paid Comedy central for which he didn't his royalty.
Just saw Redemption Song. Happy times are here again, Duke! ;D
I'll watch it
Why would you not watch it? You think Chappelle is going to give you some of that money?!
I remember when he walked away from Comedy Central and The Chapelle Show.. They put it out there that he had lost his mind, that he was crazy, schizophrenic and had retired and moved away to Africa. I even remember hearing that he was a crack addict. None of that sat right with me. But people believed it. Glad to see him back, despite people still trying to tear him down.
Greatest comeback ever! I knew it was a lie when I heard that craziness. Glad to see that Dave is back! 😉🎉🚀🚀🚀
Then they got their guard dog Oprah to interview him and she asked him loaded questions that she knew he couldn't answer out of contractual obligations.
@HolyHammerOfByzantium Id like to normally think I wouldnt fall for this shit but it was hard not too at the time when he just vanished and they were allowed to set the narrative. It's fucked up, if Dave ever comes out, ill stump up for a show to see the dude.
Yeah that was CRAZY
The last laugh was on them.
Very intelligent man. He sees through the BS. Just like George Carlin. Love them both!
This man gets the picture. God bless you, Mr. Chappelle.
I’ve always like his comedy. But the profound intelligence and sincerity this man possesses just leaves me speechless. I will boycott Chapelle show for Dave.
This is old, you can watch the show now, he got paid: “When you stopped watching it, they called me,” Chappelle, 47, said in the clip. “And I got my name back, and I got my license back, and I got my show back, and they paid me millions of dollars. Thank you very much.”
Yup, f the Chapelle Show.
I guess Comedy Central finally paid Dave. Well Great, cause the execs at Comedy Central were going to get %
Yeah, what Nina said. No reason to boycott now that Dave won the battle.
@@kernelxsanders And he did it by using his head, not stooping like them and using lies

When was that?

I am so happy to know he was paid and given what he deserved in the first place!!! Legendary comic!!

So horrible. It’s a crying shame a comic dreaming of making it big, was afforded the opportunity every other comic will only ever dream of, became rich wind famous and never has to work another day in his life. I’m so sad for him. Hopefully this awful outcome doesn’t happen to anyone else.
And then finally he got his rights back for the show by people doing nothing . By not watching his show. That is powerful. It shows you how much power we have if we all band together and not participate in something to make a change. Brilliant. Well done Dave . I love you so much as a human being. The Goat of comedy.
100%
That's why ya government do shit to keep us separated are beefing with each other. Tho I hate Trump he said it best.
Not really, he hates cancel culture,
Amazing. What a guy
With that.......
I can tell you that I have imagined what we can do banded together like a tight knit FAMILY of people against corrupt government, against Evil Career Politicians I have seen us, as a people, strike and take back OUR country from the greedy bastards what are keeping us divided. Well I imagined it, I won't be around to witness it but. I know the day is coming
This is all the evidence I need. Dave Chappelle’s primary avenue is comedy but he’s not a comedian he’s a rhetorician…a master or the spoken word. He definitely operates at a high level. A very unrecognized gift within our age, that of the storyteller. A master at work.
Thanks for the schooling, Dave. You're a wise man.
"Young man, don't ever come between a man and his meal". This is deep
I love his honesty. It’s like when he’s not being funnny, he’s being thought provoking.
So much respect for Dave
I've never seen his show on comedy central but have seen the Netflix specials. Have come to really like and appreciate his message. To me his comedy is a message with deep meaning to the world we live in today.
u know ur good at what u do when u can just go off on a tangent and still have the crowd glued to what ur saying dave is just different man no matter if hes tellin jokes or ranting about shit that rubbed him the wrong way during his come up he will always be entertaining
I gotta say. Not only is this guy funny and ahead of his time, he has the ability to bring people together. This divided country needs more laughter and then the love will follow.
I could listen to Dave all day, everyday. His philosophical outlook and stories of life are truly amazing.
He just tells it how it is in the business that he has chosen. And what gets me is that they kicked him in the guts so many times, and ate him up and spat him out so many times, and he still is one of the biggest names in the game.
Respect to the man and his struggles. He will always be a favourite of mine and my husband's.

I took a legal education seminar once in copyright law. It was terrifying. The guy pointed out that when the Beatles released their last album, they had pre sold 100% of it. They received nothing from sales. The most important tip he gave for young musicians and entertainers was “Never give percentages in exchange for services. If you need management or lawyers or technicians, find a way to pay them cash.”
