Dave Chappelle New Special "The Closer" Drops Today on Netflix

[Hey_zeus]

It's jokes through out this. nikkas want him on stage acting like Reggie from Nutty Professor. This is stand-up... it's not a one style fits all

 

[Absolut da poet ®]

Loved it !!!

Dave the King

Yea he prob focused too much on the trans shyt but given the whole story with his friend is that any surprise

If he thinks the people harrassing her on Twitter were partly responsible for when she chose to go that means he had a role in it too.

shyt a heavy subject

But I'll be glad if he never touches on it again, that's what he said after all

I'll always love listening to Dave. He ain't even have to do a set or have a routine , bro is the goat story teller

Music doesn't have to sound good. Art doesn't have to be beautiful. Drama doesn't have to be moving.

My bowel movements don't have to stink like this comedy special.

Trying to have a cordial discussion with the poster above breh, if you can't then don't quote me breh.

You and your shyt literally can be kept to yourself.

Man… here’s my honest review.

Dave has become everything I feared he would become: a lecturer without the comedy.

I smiled and chuckled at some parts but I had no real laugh out loud moments. It felt like a TeD Talk with anecdotal stories. He spent the last 30 mins on trans. I mean God damn, let it go already. Talk about overkill. It would’ve been fine if this was his first time addressing them but this is like the third special in a row.

Chappelle has become a real life Coli poster. The only time I hear about these trehs are on here. Outside of that, I rarely hear about them. Now Chappelle seems to have a weird fetish over them.

I really tried to enjoy this. If this was anyone but Chappelle, I would’ve switched off after 30 minutes. Please stop with this “he’s transcended comedy.” Wtf? Last time I checked a comedian is meant to be funny. Whether it’s one liners or story telling, the goal is to be funny.

You can be political, socially conscious, philosophical etc and still be funny. This special wasn’t it. Just ranting and ranting about gays and trans… AGAIN!

Sorry, Dave needs to go back to the drawing board. Too many specials in such a short amount of time has made him stale and predictable.

At least he said this will be his last special for a while and he’ll stop beating a dead horse. Hopefully he comes back inspired and back to funny Dave.

DL Nikkas exposing themselves right nowwwwww WATTBA

 

[RedCloakBlackWraithe]

This the one that went over my head. WTF was he talking about with this ?



Explained


He held back here and it wasn't funny.

it was if you understood their history.

balfor declaration, fact!

alleged stolen heritage of the jewish transplants etc etc. unsure about truth of..

You sound like a dumb nikka. Being funny lol is young nikka shyt. Once you reach a certain age you start talking about life..

This is one of the GOATS... Use your platform to expose shyt with a little humor. I'm tired of LGBTQ having more rights than black people. How a rapper can kill someone, doesn't get canceled then he says something about gays and he's canceled. I would have been happy if he went harder on them fags.

This man is a legend. And you're spot on about comedy - the origins of it was used to expose social dynamics and poke fun at the way people behaved.

Mature discussion about current events sprinkled with humour. Everything we all always wanted to say in public but do it on here on this message board.

8/10

 

[Morethan1]

All of these Netflix specials have been masterful.

Dude is completely comfortable in his craft. He reminds me of the year after Jordan came back. He's knows how to get the job done and makes a overall bigger point.

He's simply mastered the craft

 

[MischievousMonkey]

By far is best Nextflix special. Way more packed with jokes, while still having a lot of messages in there.

It was great.

 

[MischievousMonkey]

People are saying “he’s in his Carlin/Hicks phase where he’s being philosophical”… that’s fine but even then, those guys were STILL funny and told jokes. Being philosophical and being funny aren’t mutually exclusive. Chris Rock does it, Patrice did it and Dave has done it in the past.

Im going to reluctantly watch this but my expectation level has been lowered by this thread. I’m seeing less posts about actual jokes he did and more posts about him “going in.” That’s usually a bad sign if it’s comedy one is seeking.

I thought there were way more jokes in there than in the other ones. People just want to conjure up controversy imo.

Was Hella weak to me. 6/10

Peachy Dave is back.

Rip to the GOAT early to mid 2000s Killin Them Softly Chappelle.

Imagine being so rich and famous/out of touch that your most edgy material is dissing LGBTQ community.

There's always ALWAYS shades of genius even in this raspy voiced, terrible dressing older Chappelle

... But its never gonna be that 1 hour of bliss like 20 years ago.

 

[chineebai]

There should be a trans comedian that does cisgender jokes just for the hell for it

I didn't get the feeling he was really dissing "the community". More so pointing out the power one group has while choosing what counts as offensive - something black people do not have the luxury of doing. Also pointing out how the feminist movement is completely backwards.
