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

[ThrobbingHood]

The fukked up part is that HBO is now streaming Chappelles show when they bluntly told Dave to go fukk himself when he was pitching it to them before Comedy Central picked it up.

So y’all gonna wait all these years after I’m hot again to try to capitalize off my blood, sweat and tears?

I understand he signed the contract but it’s still foul how the suits are desperately still trying to eat off that man’s plate when they already made over 100 million off the show. Greedy ass fukks

And HBO gave him his first half hour special and then “Killing Them Softly” special. And even after that they told him to go fukk himself. GABOS.

There is a "right thing" in business...not everyone abides by the greedy backstabbing "Y/Y growth no matter what" Anglo-Saxon culture. You need to be cognizant of it because they will get you when your back is turned but that doesn't mean you have to do bad business yourself. Comedy Central did bad business and messed up their cash cow no matter how you slice it.

100%
People will say “he signed the contract” or “it’s just business” but these same companies don’t give these types of deals to white “artists” Jerry Seinfeld, Elton Jon, Bon Jovi, jay leno, ray Romano, etc etc all of these white entertainers get business done “in good faith” and retire massively wealthy from their hard work.
Meanwhile when they do business with us we always get a raw deal. When most of the white artists get their inspiration and material from the black community. They been coming to black communities just to look for raw talent exploit since the early 20th century.

AND he didn't have to put on a dress. I know the Hollywood jews are FURIOUS.

He did in the Robin Hood movie.

After finishing this special I once again for the 1000th time will say Master P is the last black hero we had

Amazing how he hasn’t had a biopic yet. A true pioneer.

I’m starting to smell rotting mayonnaise in this thread.

his business deal was what it was, but since i mess with Dave i'll oblige him.



p had a distribution deal for his independently ran label
it has been duplicated lol. cash money, tde for example

i know people like to shyt on artists as being dumb in the business but a lot of em actually do ok. that's why i don't feel sorry for everybody that cries about bad contracts.

This isn’t true. Priority records (whose parent company is universal) gave master p something like 85% of all sales and he got to keep 100% of his company. When he became massively successful universal wanted to renegotiate and he wouldn’t so they went directly to his rivals cash money out of spite and gave them a similar deal but they took 50% of cash money on top of a large percentage of their sales.

fukk you dirty crackaz in this thread

 

[that guy]

I agree but the one thing i would say is get your own lawyer regardless if your agency has one for you or not. Once i hear anything about not being able to use my name for anything, that is getting taken out of the contract or i am walking, regardless of my financial situation.

You can say that now because with the internet we don’t need these companies anymore but when Dave was coming on the scene these people were the gate keepers. You can sign the deal he took or work the chitlin circuit for the rest of your life doing hole in the wall comedy spots. If you were a comedian in Dave’s shows you would have took the deal. Fortunately we don’t need these predatory Jews and their ilk anymore but back then if you wanted to go to the next level that’s what you had to do.

 

[Absolut]

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

Plenty. Look at how much money the marvel movies made Disney and take a gander at the contacts of the non Downey Jr stars. Chris evans made 300k to be captain America. Thor made 200k his first Thor movie. Gal Gadot made 300k for Wonder Woman That’s how contracts work. You are bound by what you agreed to. Whether it’s student loans you owe back and now want handouts to cover, or you don’t like the earnings and stipulations about your likeness after you signed it away in writing.

nah the no limit deal was 80/20.... they tried 85/15 but quickly realized that they couldn't hack it because they had to pay more out of pocket under that deal. they went back to priority for more advance money in exchange for 80/20. video interview of Ps manager at the time. he says that five percent was worth it because they needed that extra cash to do it big


cash money signed the same deal, but may have got a bigger advance.

Estimated at the time to be worth $30 million (“It ended up being worth more,” insists Baby), the unprecedented three-year deal allowed the entrepreneurs to retain full ownership of their masters and publishing. “I refused to give them anything,” says Baby, who was 27 at the time. “I can’t let nobody take nothing we work for. If they get something, it’s gonna have to be something we accomplish together.” Under the deal, Universal would give Baby and Slim a $2 million advance every year, plus a credit of $1.5 million for each of the up to six artists they’d be able to put out annually. After the sales came in, they would divide the profits: Universal would get 20% for their services, and Cash Money would bring a whopping 80% back home.

Again, you do not have to take these deals at face value nor take them at all. Negotiate for a better position before you sign and if that fails, then do not sign. I would say the same thing for someone breaking in to the business but Dave came in with a successful comedy special and movie appearances. If networks did not want to give him what he felt he deserved then he should not of taken the deal, grind even more, and come back. Most likely you will not be pitching your idea to the same people anyways and if you are, then you will have more leverage to get a better deal.

This should be a cautionary tale to those who want money and fame and feel they need to fukk themselves to get ahead. Is it better to be potentially famous and own nothing, or to own everything and run the risk of not being a big star?

It's not back stabbing...it's an agreed upon contract...

If I sign a contract that says a company can use my name and likeness forever...I expect them to use my name or likeness... forever...

Company Central is still rolling in money over the chapelle show...so no...they actually didn't do bad business...

I swear Dave Chapelle is turning into for black people what Donald Trump turned into for white people...

Eternal negs for you, young c00n, going forward..outrageous comparison, you dumb fakkit.

Did you actually read what I wrote? I said he got to keep 100% of his company and something like 85% of sales (it was 80%). I don’t think you understand that the 80/20 is only for album sales. Not ownership of their masters. Cash money is 50% owned by universal with 85% of their royalties/album sales. Cash money only got the deal because master p wouldn’t renegotiate. It’s simple math. One company owns 100% the other owns 50% got it?
