Right! After his Netflix specials where he made joke about everything from Cosby, R. Kelly, Michael Jackson, LGBTQ jokes ppl tried & failed. It took him telling his fans to not watch the Chappelle Show on Netflix to get it taken down lmfoa

He made 500 million with Chapelle Show and was supposed to get 250 million. But they said it surpassed what the contract said and they offered 10%. Thats why he left.

I can appreciate what folks are saying. It’s like who’s the GOAT in the NBA (MJ of course 😊). Or football (Walter) Or baseball. I loved Pryor in his day. It was also very sad when he got sick. Maybe it’s the “moment” and chappelle speaks to it so well that him in my esteem.
I've seen Dave a few times. His ability to captivate your attention is something that can not be transferred through a screen. He is hypnotizing, you hang on every word he says and you never know where he is going but when he arrives there is brilliance but through a punch of hilarity. I agree with Kevin Hart in this video, he is the GOAT. if you ever get a chance in the future when things start to open back up go see him!
Hi! I came to this video because I wanted to know what was the exact reason why people wanted to cancel him. Can someone please tell me? What was the exact joke?
I think what separates Chappelle from Carlin is that with Carlin, you always got the sense that the things he said, while hilarious and enlightening, were rehearsed. His delivery was a bit forced and he rarely gave the audience a second to absorb it. Chappelle lets the audience absorb. His delivery is better. The man said "Juicy Smool-yay" and let the audience figure it out, and it was absolutely masterful. Carlin could never do that. He would have kept going like nothing just happened.
Eclipse is a strong word! lol I fw Chris, but I have to agree Dave's the fucking goat with this stand-up shyt. Chris is a beast with race and male/female stuff 🥈
I'm actually getting emotional, hearing all of my favorite comedians speaking so highly of Dave. We owe him so fucking much, what he's done for society, no only for comedy. He breaks the mold every time.
The fact he’s been doing comedy since he was fourteen…fourteen- a child working in a wise man’s world and holding his own, remaining relevant, building a life of substance, respect, purpose and ethical conviction is what makes him the GOAT….not one scandal, not one overdose, no divorce, a father, a man’s man and unapologetically genuine in presenting himself to the world. Yes, Dave Chappell is one of a kind 💚
While my personal favorite is still Carlin, chapelle is probably the best storyteller and has the best charisma of any comedian and he does it so effortlessly
Kevin Hart got stuck in outta realm, he couldn't express his words clearly cus Dave is just a wonder. Dave's gifted, talented and focused, period. You can tell he doesn't have to deal with rehearsals from the beginning to the ending of his shows
Man I was born in 1998 but I grew up watching Chapelle show because we stole cable from the neighbors and that's all i watched he is the goat I still watch him now 10 years later

When Kevin Hart started talking about "Dave standing up for comedy" I bet Joe was thinking about when he stood up to Carlos Mencia in the name of comedy.
@@gregorywright9971 Robin Williams made a career off his roles in film. How about you don't speak ill of the deceased? How about you recognize him for Ms doubtfire and flubber, dead poet society. Like IMAGINE.
@@MuffinMan2860 ya no he didn’t he stole shit it’s well known guy. Go actually do some searching. During his rise African American were not allowed on tv so Robin Williams would go to events and take others acts and go live on TV and play them out. Which is what landed him his roles in the first place. He was the Carlos before Carlos.
Kevin Hart is absolutely correct on two points. First, Dave has surpassed Richard Pryor in my opinion. The thought process that develops Dave's material comes from a deeper place, maybe more intellectual and probably more weed. Second, Dave was probably never afraid of being canceled because he had already canceled himself once before. He has already experienced what life is like post stardom so at this point in his career, what is there to be afraid of? The healing power of laughter is underrated. In my opinion, comedians of all levels, are some of the true heroes of the 2020 epidemic. being able to pull up a video, laugh out loud, while facing social, financial, and health challenges for some people, a good laugh is priceless. But most people will rarely experience the true gift of laughter because they are too busy focusing on what might be offensive instead of the gift that's being delivered to their doorstep in the form of standup comedy. In my opinion, your sole purpose for viewing/listening to a standup comedian is to find something that makes you laugh. Not to determine whether or not he/she is a good person, who cares! It's just a profession called comedy.
I love Chappelle and i think he's the best when it comes to stand up, but as an African what I truly love is seeing a fellow South African being featured in a video that has all the comic giants. Very inspiring
Dave is the real deal for all comedians , funny , compassionate and stating the truth through the medium of comedy and satire. God bless you for the laughter and thought invoking messages you have delivered 🤟🏿
I’ve had the pleasure of speaking with Dave, he is a great human being with a big heart ♥️ He’s a “MC”! Master of Ceremony - for anyone that doesn’t know. His calling is unique and his mother is a huge part of his inspiration! Also, his Father’s words contributed to him becoming the man he is and still becoming! ♥️🌹 God Bless Dave and his family,!🙏🏽👱🏻♀️ DC you got some unfinished work that’s calling your name and only someone like you has the ability to pull it off... You are a voice to be reckoned with! Luv U brother. Jakes mom. You make me laugh in the hardest of times. Ty. DC
Love Dave and he's definitely on a level by himself, and it's a level only a few comedians have reached. I'll put him right there with Richard Pryor but not ahead of him yet. Richard was also on a level by himself with albums and movies, etc, just because he was popular in the 70s and 80s doesn't diminish what he meant to comedy. Richard blazed a trail for not only Dave, but Eddie and many others and if Dave is a GOAT so is Richard.
He's one of the dudes that can take the piss out of any people and make them laugh about it. He's an equal opportunity offender. Much like Chris Rock. He hits everyone just as hard. Love it
@John Anderson truth is, I'm right there with you... stand up comedy needs about 3 or 4 Mt Rushmore's... it was tough not to find a spot for Lenny Bruce, Redd Foxx, Chris Rock, Sam Kinison, Robin Williams, Eddie Izzard, Jerry Seinfeld, and I'm sure more than a few etceteras
I agree, both of them don’t give a fuck about public opinion and have no problem walking away from the money. Dave walked away from the spotlight for a few years and turned down his 50 million dollar deal, Eminem turned down a music tour with Dr dre 50 cent and snoop dogg because he wanted to spend more time with his kids. They both took a hiatus and came back and continued to be successful, and both of them disappear from the public eye until they’re ready to release something.
Been watching Dave ever since I could understand hw to use a TV remote (with cable) as a child growing in Jamaica.. he is and forever will be the greatest comedian for me and 99% of jamaicans.. he should visit here more often he wouldn't believe his fan base...
The level of respect comedians have for DC is something I have never seen b4, they look at him almost like a mythical man, even Eddie Murphy who's basically a legend acknowledges Chapelle's greatness; no one has this kind of strength now a days, the courage/resource/talent to survive for 10 years without a strong $ flow is unheard of but the most amazing thing is when he comes back! he just picks where he left off!
I agree with Kevin hard! Dave is now the goat because this risk he took. I like what he said when the fire is hottest is stood up when others wouldn’t.
It's unbelievable that when I was in high school and Chappelle's Show was the ultimate thing on TV, this was when Chris Rock and Eddie Murphy were considered the best. Then this guy that people might have recognized from Half-Baked or Robin Hood: Men in Tights suddenly finds his footing. Now, almost 20 years later, I'm watching clips of those other two comedians paying homage to someone that is their junior. It's mind-boggling to see just how quickly and indisputably someone can jump to the next level and leapfrog the next and then reach all the way to the top.
Dave is not Hollywood! That’s why everybody loves him! You can trust him cus his integrity is still intact, his genuine personality and self awareness is what people respect. He’s just Dave kind , funny, and down to earth.
It's like witnessing a real life time traveler philosopher shapeshifter of Comedy, because he can tell jokes through different times him self have a different appearance every time & he always is ahead of his time and this video aged like fine wine!🔥🐐
Dave chapelle's comedy style always a breath of fresh air.. No matter topic is discuss.. He seems to hold on to his morals in the most crucial time in His career till now.
George Carlin was also a very intellectual comedian, but his weakness was sometimes his routines came across as a rant or a lecture (even though still very funny), but with Dave it never feels like a lecture and I feel he has more subtlety/nuance than George, even though in some ways I prefer Carlin’s material.
All of these gentlemen have been the comedy lifeline for me and I respect their input on Chappelle. If there would be a some sort of a dedicated comedy think tank, then these men would be major players in it. Love!
Yea, well they are all great, but two stand out beyond, Dave and Bill. These two individuals are outstanding in their ability to get their overall insight across. Always to the point and funny as hell. Their ability to stand there and be and say what should be said. Not many comedians hold my attention, but I never get sick of hearing these two greats.
In my opinion Mr. Dave Chappelle is right up there with Mr. Lenny Bruce. Absolute ground breaking geniuses, respectfully of course! For those of you who don't know Lenny Bruce, do yourself a favor and check him out. The goat before the goat. Both leave me awestruck!!
I love Dave Chappelle,because he is intelligent articulate and kind as a man and funny l always laugh because he makes sense and is a product of his beautiful Mom.
My take on Dave Chappelle is what puts him heads and shoulders above ANY comedian alive today is that he can criticize, tell a story, make a comment about the state of society and make a point but not be mean-spirited about it, AND STILL BE FUNNY. It seems simple but it's actually very hard; to be sensitive and kind but still be edgy and ruthless. No one I've seen does it better.
I love how comedians give him his flowers while he’s still here
Which was Richard Pryor he was so substantial when he needed people to unite. He talked about race relations when he didn't know if the network or Hollywood would censor him. I am so happy he and Redd Fox and Richard Pryor paved the way for these genius comedians.
Well said….
And thank God he is. 🙏🏾
Big Facts
PERIOD!!!!THAT FKN PART!!!!!
His ability to tell stories is beyond this world. He tells a story and gets you instantly hooked
Kind of like the instant hypnotic effect of Ucbiha Shisui’s sharingan
That is the Genius of Dave Chapelle. Like Bill Cosby.
Its like how neil tyson makes learning fun
Its because it isnt a story, its more like a comentary on society
honestly in my opinion it ain’t his story telling but his ability to bring up harsh truths about society and make you laugh in the process.
You can’t cancel somebody who never cared about public opinion
Dave already cancelled them
Only dave chappelle can cancel dave chappelle.

Then this guy that people might have recognized from Half-Baked or Robin Hood: Men in Tights suddenly finds his footing. Now, almost 20 years later, I'm watching clips of those other two comedians paying homage to someone that is their junior. It's mind-boggling to see just how quickly and indisputably someone can jump to the next level and leapfrog the next and then reach all the way to the top.
Dave Chappelle is my all time favorite comedian
It’s Eddie Murphy and Dave Chapelle for me
As a comedy lover and being my dream dave is a role model an inspiration, truly the goat
Dave Chappelle is a God given blessed genius on and off the stage.
“Competition keeps you in condition.” I’m gonna remember that.
A legends legend.
Cool video man, enjoyed it.
Dave is not Hollywood! That’s why everybody loves him! You can trust him cus his integrity is still intact, his genuine personality and self awareness is what people respect. He’s just Dave kind , funny, and down to earth.
Cheering and applauding your Bravour! Keep on Brother.

These comedians appreciating Dave Chapelle is a delight to watch.
He is the Goat for real.
It's like witnessing a real life time traveler philosopher shapeshifter of Comedy, because he can tell jokes through different times him self have a different appearance every time & he always is ahead of his time and this video aged like fine wine!🔥🐐
Chappelle for President 2024!!!
Dave chapelle's comedy style always a breath of fresh air.. No matter topic is discuss.. He seems to hold on to his morals in the most crucial time in His career till now.
Dave Chappell is an amazing black man! He is the GOAT of his generation.

My take on Dave, he is a life philosopher who make jokes.
Couldn't agree more 👏🏽

"Dave is the most intellectual comedian, ever" - Eddie Murphy
He is right on the money. Dave is very intellectual in his stand ups.
George Carlin was also a very intellectual comedian, but his weakness was sometimes his routines came across as a rant or a lecture (even though still very funny), but with Dave it never feels like a lecture and I feel he has more subtlety/nuance than George, even though in some ways I prefer Carlin’s material.
Hoping people know what intellectual means
@@burns83 Hoping you do
All of these gentlemen have been the comedy lifeline for me and I respect their input on Chappelle. If there would be a some sort of a dedicated comedy think tank, then these men would be major players in it. Love!
Yea, well they are all great, but two stand out beyond, Dave and Bill. These two individuals are outstanding in their ability to get their overall insight across. Always to the point and funny as hell. Their ability to stand there and be and say what should be said. Not many comedians hold my attention, but I never get sick of hearing these two greats.
The size of cancel culture that exists in the west specially America, exits nowhere else. Although it is called land of the free.
And that is why cancel exist, people are free to be idiots
In my opinion Mr. Dave Chappelle is right up there with Mr. Lenny Bruce. Absolute ground breaking geniuses, respectfully of course! For those of you who don't know Lenny Bruce, do yourself a favor and check him out. The goat before the goat. Both leave me awestruck!!
Dave is more artistic in his comedy than anyone else.
I love Dave Chappelle,because he is intelligent articulate and kind as a man and funny l always laugh because he makes sense and is a product of his beautiful Mom.
Chapelle is the funniest comic ever to grace a stage. The Chapelle Show was one of the best skit comedy shows ever on TV.
The only person I paid money to go see when he came to London pre covid. Glad I got to see him.
My take on Dave Chappelle is what puts him heads and shoulders above ANY comedian alive today is that he can criticize, tell a story, make a comment about the state of society and make a point but not be mean-spirited about it, AND STILL BE FUNNY. It seems simple but it's actually very hard; to be sensitive and kind but still be edgy and ruthless. No one I've seen does it better.
Yes I'm. 70'S kid and Dave C. Rocks this era 💯!
