This is my first time being critical of Dave. I know his comedy is full of risks. And While I agree with his sentiment, “ When a hero stumbles, the cowards rejoice” but Dave’s example of himself, does not apply and is actually ridiculous.. Doing comedy shows and creating a place of live gatherings during a world wide pandemic is not a hero. Staying home to stop the spread is not cowardice. It is a sacrifice . Working on the front lines is a hero. I’m not blaming Dave for doing his shows. I don’t know his reasoning, but Dave, don’t call people that are trying to do the Right thing cowards and don’t build yourself up to be some kind of enlightened hero . Remember Dave Pride comes before the Fall.
Brilliantly put? Please. He casts himself as a hero then paints any criticism of his behavior as "rejoicing" in his "stumble". I am not rejoicing one bit when I say that partying in close quarters with someone who JUST HAD COVID is irresponsible and puts other people at risk.
@ThinkBefore YouType the difference is, he actually told jokes back then. He no longer tells jokes. I have no problem with the message, just the delivery. If you are gonna charge $360 a person for a table of 4 for a "comedy show" I at least expect some comedy.
@ If you take another look at the video, no one in the audience is wearing masks 😕. Not really sure what type of precautions they're taking with the audience members (maybe rapid tests?) but the optics don't look too good.
@@xThePsychoNautx this is the real problem right here. People thinking there opinion is factual and that it matters. Don’t like him or the fact that he charges to much or whatever it maybe? Then kick rocks and roll the fuck on to what you do like and leave your opinion in your journal for you. It’s like everyone forgot if you don’t have nothing nice to say then don’t say nothing at all and opinions are like assholes everyone has one and yours isn’t any better that the next
This man is a genius. Made himself into an icon and a legend forever because of his courage in refusing to 'kiss the ring' and his ability to walk away from $50 million dollars, returned and made all that money back and then some with Netflix, and now he wrapped it up by getting paid millions from Comedy Central for his work after simply asking that they do the right thing and pay him when they had no legal obligation to. This is what happens when you don't sell your soul for money.
Dave Chapelle will always stay relevant because he'll always tell it like it is and because of that, his fans will always support and appreciate him, including myself.
I'm at that point where i don't really care about Dave's stand up, I just want to hear the man talk! Talking knowledge with a touch of humour during these times is very uplifting! Keep it up Dave!
@@onurbsenutna1261 not trolling at all, actually being very serious. just saying that we as Americans have allowed others to think for us for so long, that generations have forgotten this gift. If that doesn't fit your bill, then why be upset? Meaning one person shouldn't be the only one speaking, helping to change consciousness for the betterment of all.

@@lv41anothr60 Where did you get that from my comment?? And since when appreciating hearing intelligent people talk, is having others "thinking for us"? That is the dumbest conclusion i've heard in a while. Seems like you are saying stuff to sound "enlighten", but not making any sense. Also what makes you think that i'm American? Are you aware that there are millions of people in the world with access to the internet and youtube, that speak English, as well as being fans of Dave Chappelle, besides "Americans"(what ever you mean by that)?
@@onurbsenutna1261 you seem to be blowing this all out of proportion. I'm talking coming together by thinking for ourselves, and helping those who have that platform like a DC. if it doesn't pertain to you, then maybe ask yourself why are you so upset? let it go!
He's a hugely important social figure. Just look at what Comedy Central ended up doing because of the respect this man wields. It's not power, because he doesn't tell you or else, there's no ultimatum, he just asks you to do what is right. People listen, because they want to, because they love and respect this man. Dave Chapelle is a genius. He is honest. He is brave. Much love and respect to this man.
Dave Chappelle is the only comedian that can be mentioned in the same sentence as Richard Pryor and George Carlin. These 3 are my personal absolute favorites because of their styles. They put their heart & soul on stage with real life experience that make you feel and think.
I've said something similar. I think Carlin and Chappelle are the two greatest of all time (for whatever reason, Richard Pryor never clicked with me. I'm in the minority I know). I think their blend of humor and story telling that makes you think is well beyond being a stand-up comedian.
This man is turning into Maya Angelou. Straight up poet. You can’t classify him as a comedian anymore. He’s more than that. The evolution is incredible. We’re all lucky to be witnesses.....
Because people don't understand that on a visceral level. If they did we wouldn't be in the situation we're in, sitting in our houses watching the biggest power and money transfer in history while we ....sit there and wait....
How? Dave just spit pessimism this whole video, and some of you decide to look at it optimistically. Bold... but not logical. How does our power lie in each other? What power? Smh
@@blacknap0le0n56 you're joking right? cancel culture that everyone hates about happens through people, with their ability to target powerful untouchable people. The Gamestop short squeeze that cost insanely rich people billions on Wallstreet. Bitcoin's decentralized currency, the only reason it's been working is that people have. Entire industries have changed their business model because they are scared, and can see the shift of power changing, Which is why you have tons of companies like apple, walmart, start investing in stakeholder capitalism. The uberfication of entire industries. The entire message rebranding of companies to now pretending to be more socially conscious. That's entirely because they have seen the writing on the wall, and know what the power is shifting, and there is little use fighting it. Where have you been the last 7 - 8 years? people are kept down because they are convinced they don't have power. not because they actually don't.
I can very literally listen to Dave talk for days on end, just constantly on the edge of my seat waiting for his next opinion. Dude is seriously smart af
I totally agree with your reply if I get down in the dumps start feeling depressed I got to find something with Dave Chappelle just him walking onstage makes me laugh he just got that enthusiasm and laughter just coming out his pores love the man
I think people love him because he's honest and we all know it and what he does is speak the truth and we all know that and it feels good to be around to listen to him and his wisdom and people like him you can only wish the best and I wish everybody the best no matter what cuz I don't need to be ignorant
I never cease to be amazed by Dave Chappelle. His ability to express himself clearly and concisely without sacrificing the comedic art he's always shared with us. Simply BRILLIANT!
Chappelle is great for his way of expressing himself clearly , his way with words , for same reason masses likes listen to Jordan Peterson, they both can present issues and their ideas as clearly as possibly they can. Both of these man mastered their ability to speak clearly .
I love how much Netflix is appreciating Chappelle. He asked them to remove Chappelle Show and they respected his wishes then they went on to pay him for his work and put the show back on Netflix. They've treated this man so much better in just the last few years than Comedy Central did the entire time he was there
@Pete Alexandrou just like Dave, they signed a contract and at the time he didn't have the celebrity to keep his creation. The man walked away from 54 million dollars and went home to Ohio, he practically disappeared and ever since he came back he's been trying to get people to see whts right. It took 12yrs for him to get his name and show back. He literally said the fans are his boss, thts why he had Chappelle show removed from Netflix. They were still using his work without paying him but he put his own show on strike twice because morally it wasn't right. I can't speak for those other people and it's sad they're stuck in a shitty contract but this world isn't fair
@Pete Alexandrou its not pander, its a simple fact of right and wrong. Im under shitty contracts with a lot of basic shit in life lol. Im happy for ANYONE that get what their worth and owe. Stop being a hater and kissing ass of these companies. He happy for people and move on, sad ass people
Just had a flash tangent connection to the moment in "Spirited Away" when Chihiro reveals Haku's true name... I wish I could find a clip for you.. but same vibe.
"My father told me 'Name your price in the beginning. If it ever gets more expensive than the price your name, get out of there.' Thus, Africa." - Dave Chappelle
I appreciate Dave thanking his boss - us. So many artists, celebrities forget we are the buyer. And for him to show appreciation to us rather than the corporate America is nice.
@Tony Rubens hell is were really talking all 12 months are "white history months" because the white people white washed all of the history books. If were being honest
Comedians have been the voice of society for ages. I say this not to berate, for I just learned something about comedians myself a little while ago. Take a look at some videos that detail the true roll of a court jester. Very interesting stuff. Happy searching!
@@davek2548 you’re missing the distinction between artists and products. That’s the problem with this conservative logic. It’s money, product, money, product, money, product, and they make people feel like their lack of money, is a product of something, someone, somewhere else. The legacy of America isn’t freedom or democracy, its exploitation. Think about it, when has America EVER done ANYTHING, without exploiting someone. Their problem, is the traditionally exploited keep fighting back, they keep winning, and they’ve very very cleverly shifted exploitation to the last group that will ever notice, conservative poor. Cause the product of America (not what America produces, but what America is “sold” as) is marketed vigorously to them. Where are the poorest states? Where are the lowest wages? Where’s the highest teen pregnancy? And they’re starting to know, they didn’t storm the Capitol for Trump, they stormed the Capitol cause they’re angry. The systems of exploitation have mastered directing that anger, directing it right back into their own pens. Trump wasn’t a leader, he was a best selling product. Listen to him, he never had a single original idea. He was a mouthpiece, a parrot, of conservative media, oligarchs, and power.
@Tommaso Urbisci That's subjective. You might not like him but no one gives af what u think not even ur own mama. So keep your subjective opinion to yourself cause no one here cares either.
Growing up watching Dave was a privilege. Hearing the pain in his voice the past several years, the media scrutiny... The heroes story is never over and this is yet another triumph! Long Live The King!
The thing I respect is that he came back and thanked CC after everything. He didn't want bad blood anymore with CBS/Viacom or CC. The chapter is closed. Can't wait to see Chappelle Show on Netflix.
He knew he had a fanbase large and loyal enough to use as leverage to get what he wanted. Good for him. Those slick haired execs at Comedy Central will be just fine without Dave's money. Now let's see some more Chappelle's Show!
@@LittleDeer-LD When Dave said he couldn’t wait that long (2022), it’s not about the money, it’s about his passion for stand up and connecting with his fans. How did you miss that?
How he tied Edward Snowden, Michael Brown, Coronavirus, Storming of the US Capitol, Black American oppression and the Chappelle's show together is nothing short of genius.
He’s merely stating what Black Americans have been saying for decades. He’s the prism through which we can get these things out. But, like Election Night 2016 when he and Chris Rock did the SNL skit about white folk being surprised about Trump’s win: black people knew that Trump was going to win. I will never forget my white friends laughing in my face when I warned them that Trump would win. They were calling me crying on election night-how could they have known? How could they? Really? I TOLD YOU HE WOULD WIN!
"Nothing feels better to a coward than to watch a brave guy fall." I watched Unforgiven. I took it in. I have never seen someone flog a network despite the fact that plenty of networks have it coming. The outcome is righteous - Dave is righteous - this moment feels divine. #Chappelle
I got a little teary eyed when they played those clips at the end. So much work and dedication went into that show and he finally got it back. I'm sure Charlie and Prince are smiling down.
It was smart move by Dave to take the risk of asking his fans for boycotting "himself", not many people have the balls to make the same move. Well done by Netflix for showing respect to the biggest comedian on their platform.
Not brave,SMART! Dave wasn't seeing a cent of the multiple millions Comedy Central was making off of him and his work! He basically asked his fans to boycott them,not him.. Thankfully everyone listened including myself..
When Chappelle stops saying the N-word that's when white stop coming. FYI.. I had a harmless video that the Kracka word was used. You Tube deleted. Point again whites love it when modern day minstrel men use the N-word.
I’ve been watching Dave since I was a kid. My first stand up I ever watched was Killing Them Softly. From being the funniest man I know, to being the bravest man I know, and now the wisest man I know. From all of us without fathers, you stepped in and showed us what a man should be, just by virtue of you being you. God bless you.
Dave may never understand but we appreciate him coming back more than ever. He's earned his creative freedom because he's given us so much more than we've given.
God really doesn't have anything to do with it. Thank the doctors and the front line workers that are literally putting their lives on the line every day to save people..many of whom don't even bother to put on a mask or wash their hands.
I immediately sent this to an American acquaintance - very powerful a treasure like you said. Individuals like Dave are the ones we should be trying to persuade into become the rulers so we get inside and deploy DES teama we do not need politicians to have our selves a government
@@HighPlainsDrifter53 writing into a book doesn't make the content better than visual media, just more outdated and less likely to reach people than Chapelle.
@@aakashbansal1588 lol. I'm probably a little outdated for this convo. I assume u know how to read because u responded to my comment. I wonder what Chapelle would think of these comments. Tom sawyer huckleberry finn, compared to killing em softly and netflix special. Ok guys. No disrespect tho, just having a laugh. Peace
The world has had great Philosophers for thousands of years. Seems like DC is on the way to becoming a great philosopher. Whether you agree or disagree, his train of thought is refreshing.
He’s such an intelligent mind of our generation.. he’s going to be in the books but he’s something that lacks in society today braveness and BALLS thank you Dave from the bottom of my heart
There is not, and for a long while, WILL NOT, be a better story teller than Chappelle. He is truly what MJ is to ball. He makes us laugh, cry, feel... but most importantly- he makes us think and take stock in who we are as people, as humans. Thanks Dave.
once again, the goat has spoken. this dude is not just trying to change comedy, he's trying to change this country as much as he possibly can by simply making the truth sound a little more humorous than usual. and for that rare and incredible gift, thank you senor dave!
I cried, here is a man who has done everything right, who has mamaged to break every rule and who has redefined what it means to be a comedian. Never stop inspiring us
@@MrGuystar101 No, he is the greates comedian, period. White comedians work in the same industry. And I feel like part of what Dave does is bringing to light what black people have been through. It's not intended to educate just black people, it's meant to educate all of us so that we know who we are standing next to and why we should stand closer together.
He’s telling us something very important. He’s telling us the power we hold by what we consume and what we don’t consume? We need to take that knowledge and determine what we will and won’t tolerate. We have power we just don’t know it.
I think he’s also telling us we’re in the same damn boat going nowhere unless we row the thing together. And the waves crash over black people first and hits white people next. Recognize there’s a wave when we say “oh, shit the wave just hit us”. Instead of the usual “black people are always complaining, or lying, or they just want a handout, or he/she should’ve complied, or my personal favorite “slavery ended in the 1800’s so get over it” (completely neglecting to mention the next hundred years of Jim Crow which kinda ended in the 70s but not really because you know, Mass Incarceration) I could go on but I won’t.
OUR GREAT MARTIN WAS ASASINATED FOR USING THIS POWER . THE BLACK NATION NEEDS TO BE ON CODE JUST LIKE THE WHITES. THEY ARE ON CODE NO MATTER WHAT AND BY ANY MEANS NECCESARY.
I wish all black people would learn this lesson. Take yourselves back. All of it back. YOUR MUSIC making Sony records etc so rich all the while making black culture demean themselves. NBA almost 90% black, Start a NEW NBA, but fairly distributed so you get true recognition not just the players but owners. NFL, 100% stop slaving for them. Take everything back. Start a new black Wall Street, one that is not dependent on a real place but through all America, one they can't burn to the ground and blame it on you. All Blacks need to learn from Dave Chappelle. Hit them where it hurts. The pocket. Nothing else matters. Black community has too much talent to be letting whites use it to get them rich. All black stars have said it. MJ, Prince, Chappelle, TLC. It is a time for Black people to act.
yes dave i stayed inside with my cancer and i only came out for treatment! good luck smoking! you are more a preacher these days then a comedian! still like listening to you!
Dave has become the highest level an artist can reach. He is the Oracle. He's beyond humor. He is the lone voice in the wilderness just like Black John the Baptist.
Say fam, this is a man, and he tell jokes, you gotta hop off the dick g that is wildly embarrasing to speak about someone like that, you and him and me and anyone who likes or dislikes your comment are all people. This may be the damn funniest one ever I love dave but gah damn!!!! think about the person who created the internet, or cured polio, people who have turned into nations around and brought them to prosperity. You think that....David Khari Webber Chappelle.....is the ORACLE, that hes BEYOND HUMOR??? and Comparing him to the person that spoke and preached the stories of JESES CHRIST? You're wild dude, take a chill pill, lotta funny guys
Is nice to see, a man with honor, dignity, and truly honest , everything he said is the truth plus expressing gratitude to his fans, I'm one of them. You are welcome, my friend. God bless you.
I've watched this so many times since it aired. Every time I hear Dave say "I can finally say that Comedy Central, it's been a pleasure doing business with you!", I cry. This is the epitomy of wholesome. He's a father to comedians and every kid feels weird realizing that their father is human too, he can be broken. But it's amazing seeing your father rising from the ashes like the superhero you always knew he was. Long live Chappelle!
Norm Macdonald (who himself is razor sharp) said it best: “I thought Dave Chappelle was the Richard Pryor of our generation. I was mistaken. He is the Martin Luther King Jr of our generation, and I am in awe and humbled to call him my friend.”
I love Chappelle, but you need better role models. He's gotten very preachy lately and feeling himself way too much, calling himself a hero. Doctors and nurses are heroes, not Chappelle. Still love his comedy though.

And While I agree with his sentiment, “ When a hero stumbles, the cowards rejoice” but Dave’s example of himself, does not apply and is actually ridiculous..

This man is a legend, not just a comedian, but a superb storyteller. Thanks Dave❤
He's a hugely important social figure. Just look at what Comedy Central ended up doing because of the respect this man wields. It's not power, because he doesn't tell you or else, there's no ultimatum, he just asks you to do what is right. People listen, because they want to, because they love and respect this man.

Dave Chappelle is the only comedian that can be mentioned in the same sentence as Richard Pryor and George Carlin. These 3 are my personal absolute favorites because of their styles. They put their heart & soul on stage with real life experience that make you feel and think.
Absolutely. He is The Griot of the Black American society!
Was thinking the exact same thing
I so love them 💗
I agree with you, but I would have to add Robin Williams to the same level of expertise, although all present their art a bit differently.
I've said something similar. I think Carlin and Chappelle are the two greatest of all time (for whatever reason, Richard Pryor never clicked with me. I'm in the minority I know). I think their blend of humor and story telling that makes you think is well beyond being a stand-up comedian.
This man is turning into Maya Angelou. Straight up poet. You can’t classify him as a comedian anymore. He’s more than that. The evolution is incredible. We’re all lucky to be witnesses.....
Wise and strong words ! :D
Beautiful comment. ABSOLUTE TRUTH 💯
One of the best comments on here. Well said.
Realest shit Ive read this year!!
Interesting take on his work. The format changes and evolved. This old lady may prefer the old style but so what? It’s just my opinion.
Shit when he said “you’re Americans so your power lies in each other” I don’t know how the audience gave that weak ass clap. I felt that.
Because people don't understand that on a visceral level. If they did we wouldn't be in the situation we're in, sitting in our houses watching the biggest power and money transfer in history while we ....sit there and wait....
Facts! I was shocked at the response!
I'm not an American and I felt the same things.
They zombies. Been dat 4 a while now. That's how they been getting away with everything. We dont even look up from our phones to notice
@john templeplate The white people who built his career, at that.
“Your power lies in each other.”
How?
Dave just spit pessimism this whole video, and some of you decide to look at it optimistically. Bold... but not logical.
How does our power lie in each other?
What power? Smh
@@blacknap0le0n56 Nothing he said was pessimistic. What you said was.
@@blacknap0le0n56 you're joking right? cancel culture that everyone hates about happens through people, with their ability to target powerful untouchable people. The Gamestop short squeeze that cost insanely rich people billions on Wallstreet. Bitcoin's decentralized currency, the only reason it's been working is that people have. Entire industries have changed their business model because they are scared, and can see the shift of power changing, Which is why you have tons of companies like apple, walmart, start investing in stakeholder capitalism. The uberfication of entire industries. The entire message rebranding of companies to now pretending to be more socially conscious. That's entirely because they have seen the writing on the wall, and know what the power is shifting, and there is little use fighting it. Where have you been the last 7 - 8 years? people are kept down because they are convinced they don't have power. not because they actually don't.

I love how much Netflix is appreciating Chappelle. He asked them to remove Chappelle Show and they respected his wishes then they went on to pay him for his work and put the show back on Netflix. They've treated this man so much better in just the last few years than Comedy Central did the entire time he was there
@Pete Alexandrou regardless he deserved better and it shouldn't have taken 12yrs for this to happen
@Pete Alexandrou just like Dave, they signed a contract and at the time he didn't have the celebrity to keep his creation. The man walked away from 54 million dollars and went home to Ohio, he practically disappeared and ever since he came back he's been trying to get people to see whts right. It took 12yrs for him to get his name and show back. He literally said the fans are his boss, thts why he had Chappelle show removed from Netflix. They were still using his work without paying him but he put his own show on strike twice because morally it wasn't right. I can't speak for those other people and it's sad they're stuck in a shitty contract but this world isn't fair
@Pete Alexandrou its not pander, its a simple fact of right and wrong. Im under shitty contracts with a lot of basic shit in life lol. Im happy for ANYONE that get what their worth and owe. Stop being a hater and kissing ass of these companies. He happy for people and move on, sad ass people

"My father told me 'Name your price in the beginning. If it ever gets more expensive than the price your name, get out of there.' Thus, Africa." - Dave Chappelle
“Son you got be the lion, to be the lamb you really are “ - Dave Chappelle
Can you explain what he meant pls? I think I understand the theme but not that specifically
Every American should listen to this, big up to Chappelle for saying it.
I appreciate Dave thanking his boss - us. So many artists, celebrities forget we are the buyer. And for him to show appreciation to us rather than the corporate America is nice.
Absolutely!!!

Edward is a hero who warned the world of what was coming and how much power was being abused against humanity without their knowledge.
When a comedian says the most serious things in the world, is when you realise in what times are we living.
What are you talking about? Artists are ALWAYS the ones that speak truth to power. That’s what the 1st amendment protects.
SquirrilahFish not anymore they don’t...now artists cozy up to power.
Comedians have been the voice of society for ages.
I say this not to berate, for I just learned something about comedians myself a little while ago.
Take a look at some videos that detail the true roll of a court jester. Very interesting stuff. Happy searching!
He spoke alot of truth. Even brought up some things I didn't realize.
@@davek2548 you’re missing the distinction between artists and products.
That’s the problem with this conservative logic. It’s money, product, money, product, money, product, and they make people feel like their lack of money, is a product of something, someone, somewhere else. The legacy of America isn’t freedom or democracy, its exploitation.
Think about it, when has America EVER done ANYTHING, without exploiting someone. Their problem, is the traditionally exploited keep fighting back, they keep winning, and they’ve very very cleverly shifted exploitation to the last group that will ever notice, conservative poor. Cause the product of America (not what America produces, but what America is “sold” as) is marketed vigorously to them.
Where are the poorest states? Where are the lowest wages? Where’s the highest teen pregnancy?
And they’re starting to know, they didn’t storm the Capitol for Trump, they stormed the Capitol cause they’re angry. The systems of exploitation have mastered directing that anger, directing it right back into their own pens.
Trump wasn’t a leader, he was a best selling product.
Listen to him, he never had a single original idea. He was a mouthpiece, a parrot, of conservative media, oligarchs, and power.
I saw Chappelle and clicked on immediately
Never met a celeb that was as entertaining a speaker as he is a comedian. This man is our light.
Dave is a philosopher that can express his intellect only via comedy.
@Tommaso Urbisci That's subjective. You might not like him but no one gives af what u think not even ur own mama. So keep your subjective opinion to yourself cause no one here cares either.

Growing up watching Dave was a privilege. Hearing the pain in his voice the past several years, the media scrutiny... The heroes story is never over and this is yet another triumph! Long Live The King!
The thing I respect is that he came back and thanked CC after everything. He didn't want bad blood anymore with CBS/Viacom or CC. The chapter is closed. Can't wait to see Chappelle Show on Netflix.
What a fucking saga
“Cheers to you forever, I’m riding with you until the wheels falls off”

When Dave Chappelle gets serious, I get chills and a lump in my throat. He's still too intelligent to handle, and an absolute gift.
Mr. Chapelle deserves every cent of those millions.
He knew he had a fanbase large and loyal enough to use as leverage to get what he wanted. Good for him. Those slick haired execs at Comedy Central will be just fine without Dave's money. Now let's see some more Chappelle's Show!
Ten fold
A millionaire that can't afford to take a year off...wtf is wrong with this guy... That's the biggest joke but it ain't funny
@@LittleDeer-LD When Dave said he couldn’t wait that long (2022), it’s not about the money, it’s about his passion for stand up and connecting with his fans. How did you miss that?
How he tied Edward Snowden, Michael Brown, Coronavirus, Storming of the US Capitol, Black American oppression and the Chappelle's show together is nothing short of genius.
He’s merely stating what Black Americans have been saying for decades. He’s the prism through which we can get these things out. But, like Election Night 2016 when he and Chris Rock did the SNL skit about white folk being surprised about Trump’s win: black people knew that Trump was going to win. I will never forget my white friends laughing in my face when I warned them that Trump would win. They were calling me crying on election night-how could they have known? How could they? Really? I TOLD YOU HE WOULD WIN!

Pretty damn awesome.
Left for 12 years and still came back on it, thank you Dave Chapelle
I got a little teary eyed when they played those clips at the end. So much work and dedication went into that show and he finally got it back. I'm sure Charlie and Prince are smiling down.
It was smart move by Dave to take the risk of asking his fans for boycotting "himself", not many people have the balls to make the same move. Well done by Netflix for showing respect to the biggest comedian on their platform.
Aa@aa10
He be brave.
Not brave,SMART! Dave wasn't seeing a cent of the multiple millions Comedy Central was making off of him and his work! He basically asked his fans to boycott them,not him.. Thankfully everyone listened including myself..
When Chappelle stops saying the N-word that's when white stop coming. FYI.. I had a harmless video that the Kracka word was used. You Tube deleted. Point again whites love it when modern day minstrel men use the N-word.
He wasn't gaining anything by us viewing it. It made him feel bad. So it was probably easy for him.
Every time this man speaks we are witnessing history in the making.
Chapelle has reached that legendary level where he can just be himself on stage. Carlin. Pryor. Chapelle.
I’ve been watching Dave since I was a kid. My first stand up I ever watched was Killing Them Softly. From being the funniest man I know, to being the bravest man I know, and now the wisest man I know.

He’s telling us something very important. He’s telling us the power we hold by what we consume and what we don’t consume? We need to take that knowledge and determine what we will and won’t tolerate. We have power we just don’t know it.
I think he’s also telling us we’re in the same damn boat going nowhere unless we row the thing together. And the waves crash over black people first and hits white people next. Recognize there’s a wave when we say “oh, shit the wave just hit us”. Instead of the usual “black people are always complaining, or lying, or they just want a handout, or he/she should’ve complied, or my personal favorite “slavery ended in the 1800’s so get over it” (completely neglecting to mention the next hundred years of Jim Crow which kinda ended in the 70s but not really because you know, Mass Incarceration) I could go on but I won’t.

Start a new black Wall Street, one that is not dependent on a real place but through all America, one they can't burn to the ground and blame it on you. All Blacks need to learn from Dave Chappelle. Hit them where it hurts. The pocket. Nothing else matters. Black community has too much talent to be letting whites use it to get them rich. All black stars have said it. MJ, Prince, Chappelle, TLC.

I've watched this so many times since it aired. Every time I hear Dave say "I can finally say that Comedy Central, it's been a pleasure doing business with you!", I cry. This is the epitomy of wholesome. He's a father to comedians and every kid feels weird realizing that their father is human too, he can be broken. But it's amazing seeing your father rising from the ashes like the superhero you always knew he was.

"watch that crowd ,that told Colin Kaepernick he can't kneel during a football game try to beat a police officer to death with an American flag" 👈 this part right here
I posted that I don't "eva" want to hear a Trump supporter say a GD thing about some Blue Lives Matter after January 6th. NEVER AGAIN
Straight Facts,Dave always dropping gems!!!!!
I know it wouldn't have been the right thing to do, but I really wanted to see if any cop was going to do a mag dump on that MAGAtard crowd. Then like 3 seconds later I realized a lot of those cops were MAGAtards themselves.
They have always been hypocrites.
Exactly why no one should be proud to be american. We are all huge assholes. I don't wave the american flag in front of my house anymore. This country is a shithole country.
This man is sooo important. He’s more than a comedian. Please listen to what he’s saying.
I like to think that perhaps a hundred years ago the media and similar platforms would use many of his anecdotal references to stoke the National conscience. Like those WW2 posters that read, “We can do it!” Or, “Uncle Sam wants you!” Those sorts of things🧐
“If that would’ve worked, we would’ve tried it.” Exactly.
We actually did get in the Capitol in ‘67💪
@@brandonrussell8306 But did it work then???
@@brandonrussell8306 we didn’t get in the capitol the black panthers stood on the capitol steps with guns and that’s as far as they took it. They knew what would’ve happened 😞
@@brandonrussell8306 No... you did not. The Black Panthers legally entered and occupied the California State Capitol in 1967; not the US Capitol. They are not remotely the same. If you're going spit history, make sure you've actually researched it. They also left peacefully shortly after making their presence known, when asked by police.
Canadians ate leftover food in that shit hole, I bet they even had the decency to shit in the toilet though, plus that was 200+ years ago..
I could watch these two parts.... Unforgiven and redemption song.... 100 million times. He words everything so beautifully.. and the outcome is EPIC. YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR POWER LIES! WE LOVE YOU DAVE!

@BIGbby Huey you don't need to answer that clown
Facts of life you live longer and look younger
This man low key educating the masses with humor.
Where was the humor in this video though?
@@mclovin411 people were laughing so I’m sure someone found humor somewhere to each it’s own🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
Not even low key
He up there with the likes of James Baldwin now
George Carlin did the same thing
When Dave starts getting out a cigarette, you know its going to get DEEP.
You gotta notice how it burns, definitely weed."
its when he lites it the second, or third time that youre in it too
Yeah man, Bird Revelation was some bone chilling shit
Hahaha....so true
Hahaha....so true
Hi Dave from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Watch you on the internet and what I hear is indeed a brave and intelligent person. Best of luck to my favourite comedic commebtator.
Protect this man at all cost. He's long surpassed the simple title of comedian, he's a living library of truth. Knowledge speaks, wisdom listens.
he went out to party and got covid. Pretty sure he doesn't even care about himself.
chappelle is washed up. has one more year left milking his old career. fuck him.
These must be the cowards he was talking about. Gfy doucebags
@@tfox32101 why do i feel like you are projecting your personal life out on this guy.
@@eliggins1 for sure ....lol
Something about these 10 min bits, as the kids say, hits different.
Indeed.
Yeah. I'd much rather sit for a full show. But even a snippet of Dave improves my day.
"Pepsi paid me most recently so, it tastes better" - Dave Chapelle
🤣🤣🤣 Classic
Where’s Ja? I need to hear what he thinks about this 😛😋
He did say they paid him so he's being honest.
@@5050amd Yes. That is the joke. Good job on understanding the joke.
Lol
I love how dave be tacklin real issues and making that shit funy
Much like one of his own heroes, George Carlin..
Chapelle is a story teller. That is why he cannot be plagiarized.
But he stole Owe Benjamin's joke about the LGBTQ people
This man is a the 🐐. He can put together a joke like nobody’s business and make you think all at the same time!
Just like comedians before him like Richard Pryor.
He’s definitely the living goat. Would like to see o’neils response to this.
I wonder if people really know what they're saying when they say somebody is the goat. The goat is Satan. What's wrong with everybody?
