Chris Rock > Dave Chappelle at standup

DAVE CHAPPELLE IS A STAND UP GUY!

 

[Slaimon Khan Shah]

May Allaah bless my dear brother in al Islaam Dave Chappelle with the best in this life and the next!

 

[Ziggiy]

Chappelle is the GOAT.


But Chris Rock is top 5. One of the most influential comedians of all time WITH the continued relevance to boast

but did dave chappelle have writers?

Chris Rock kept his cacs in line

Unlike Neil Brennan

But Louie used the n word in front of him so I can't even say that

 

[Slaimon Khan Shah]

May Allaah bless my beloved brother in al Islaam Dave Chappelle with the very best happiness!

Love both of them but Chapelle is definitely better. Chris relies too much on repetition and yelling to build up to a punchline. He will literally repeat a word or line 3-4 times before getting to the joke. When you add in his frenetic pacing, he can come across as preachy and heavy handed. His delivery lacks finesse.Chappelle's delivery is so smooth and natural. You never feel like you're being schooled even when you are. His comedy is masterful.

I feel like Chris rock had so much help writing it doesn't feel like stuff he went thru. Like if you listen to Dave, Katt or early Kevin Hart it feels like they're putting you in the room when their jokes happen. Plus I feel like Chris rock crossed over bc he was shytting on "ghetto" black people. Cacs love that. Most black people don't fukk with Chris rock stand up like that.

Chappelle’s old stand ups had some of the greatest jokes ever. Killing them softly and For what its worth are classic and some of the funniest shyt ever. I can go back and watch those shyts right now and laugh like its the first time I ever seen it. He’s the GOAT. The King of Comedy.

His first shyt is hilarious too..

 

[BelowTheMasonDixon]

Never has been, never will be
Bigger and Blacker and Never Scared GOATED him alone

And he admitted Patrice O'Neil was funnier than him

So to me Dave Chappelle can never be the GOAT

Him even being in the convo was a recent thing because his past stand up never got accolades during its run

I think he gets tacked on points for Chappelle show and the thing where he gives a monologs on racism in America

Conversely, I think Chris Rock gets points taken off for some c00n shyt, being an unfunny nerd in real life(he's much more of a performer, isn't natural with it or ooze cool like Eddie) and wack movies

However at the pure stand up level, Chris wins
Dave hasn't and will not match his highs

Nah, Not even close either.

His first shyt is hilarious too..

Yea that one too. That shyt is pure classic.

 

[Peter Popoff]

Dave chappelle is a living legend. The modern day dikk Gregory. Don't do this.

 

[Da Bull Ace]

Chris himself knows Dave is funnier stop the shenanigans

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

Chris himself knows Dave is funnier stop the shenanigans

I addressed that
And agreed
Standup ain't better tho

 

[SunZoo]

Nah, not at all, and I love Rock lol

Once upon a time he was a better 'comic' in the sense that he had much more experience at formatting jokes but Dave has found a real sweet spot. Like the perfect blend between Pryor and Carlin.
