Netflix removes Chappelle Show at his request; Chappelle posts new standup bit about it

[MajesticLion]

Did he have a choice with little income and kids? Imagine if black America had a reparations contract, we at that point where we gotta sign it

You always have a choice. You may not understand it; you may not even recognize that the current one you're faced with exists to be made because of embarrassment or anger or fear. It's always there.

Sometimes you can accept something as a stepping stone to a better choice down the line if you have that vision and faith in yourself, but we're not gods. We can't see every possibility. Still, you can watch the vid again to see the lesson in accepting less than what your value is, or your integrity or self respect. Reparations or otherwise.

Neal Brennan co writer of Chapelle Show and Half Baked and friend of Dave on a interview said HBO said " what do we need you for? We've got Chris Rock."

Smh

I like how he went back and referenced the iceberg story

I feel like folks be missing the jokes he cleverly slides in there. Barely a chuckle when he did that, but I thoroughly enjoy 47 year old Dave’s delivery.

in case yall missed it this is the same shyt with de la soul and tommy boy

do not stream anything before The Grind Date

Man I was wondering why de la souls stuff isn’t on Apple Music or anything I was searching for the stakes is high and couldn’t find it

There are no "i am desperate and will do anything to make it" clauses in contracts that you sign that null and void anything you feel is negative. He did not have to sign it but he chose so knowing the terms so i can get being angry, but CC is not screwing him.

Yeah this is true. But that’s the wild thing about contracts. If he doesn’t sign he likely doesn’t blow up. But now he can use his power to force them to come back to the negotiating table.

He's not even funny anymore, he's beyond that. He's deep. It's like he reached a point where he doesn't need to make jokes to get his point across.

Very interesting.


A lot of you cats always shyt on musicians asking for their money after a bad contract but now you ride fir Chapelle?

how many artist you know bringing in 400 MIL in revenue?

But Comedy Central made a Billion off Chappelle Show and still can't do the right thing which is the whole point.

Dave is the GOAT

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

Wow...I was literally just watching the Chapelle Show on Netflix last night


Dave has just inspired me to add something to my homeschool though; my babies and I are going to learn how to read and interpret different types of contracts together as an ongoing reading comprehension exercise. That whole story about Comedy Central was eye-opening about how we don’t really even understand legalese as laymen. I cannot believe he doesn’t earn money off that show.

Just save the money up for a competent and highly recommended lawyer. It’s nearly impossible to understand that shyt

No such thing as the "right thing" in business breh

Comedy Central would probably tell dave "and when you didn't have any other options on the table we are the ones who signed you to do your show that everyone else turned down. Without us you don't even get your big break".

You can't make a 100 million dollars until you make 1 dollar...

EDIT: A heavy, heavy gem was dropped about Bernie Mac.

Def was taking shots at Steve Harvey when he was talking about Bernie Mac..He hated heavy on Bernie Mac

 

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

but yeah he’s a comedian, his job is to be funny

You must have no idea of the artistry
That is comedy
Go watch George Carlin, Pryor..
Or
Comedians before your time
They were great storytellers first and foremost
Then they would sprinkle truth on your dome piece
I saw Paul Mooney live
In 2007
He was working the room with stories and truth
Made white people so mad because it wasn’t his humor
But the truth he was kicking to their faces..
Goofies just want to keke all the damn time
Or
Well y’all make everything he says deep
No shyt Sherlock
We are living in the world of vanity
No morals
If you say anything going against this idiocy culture
You become a hater/hotep
Dave is telling stories so the youngins don’t go through that
That is what a responsible old head is supposed to do
The stories your aunties, unc, big momma tell you
Aren’t just for laughs and reminiscing
They are trying to put game in your ear
With a spoon full of sugar
I don’t get down with calling people cac on here
Really don’t give a shyt if you are
But responses like this and He Not ThAt DeeP
Tell me all I need to know
A lot of y’all didn't grow up in black households
And the ones that did
Failed the fukk out of you
But continue
