This.

Even if Dave's not a great as his peak standups or his mid-2010's ones, he's still at the very least solid when it comes to standup. He's just past his prime which happens to many comedians.

Hell, I was watching Katt's special last year and that shyt was completely sterile and almost borderline boring compared to Katt's earlier specials which had more clever jokes and a more electrifying delivery that he's known for.

So, Katt Williams stans calling out Dave Chappelle's latest work is the pot calling the kettle black afaik.

I mean....just look at this shyt.



Is this supposed to be prime Katt material?

That said, both Katt and Dave deserve respect for their craft regardless of where they're currently at.

Katt's last special was very disappointing, but like you said it happens to everyone.

cats like you and Corey are about as deep as a mud puddle....

of course if you still think dikk jokes are funny and saying nikka and bytch every 30 seconds is the heights of comedy you WON'T get Dave's comedy

his brand of comedy is for people that actually think from time to time....
Smoking a cigarette while you ramble about trannys and soft shoeing for MAGA/racist doesn’t make you deep. Sit your dumb ass down :camby:

Hey ladies and germs, wanted to offer a different take on what comedy can be, especially in the context of Dave Chappelle. He once shared some really insightful advice that he got:

"And the best advice I got ever doing comedy was from a comedian that was not particularly good but the advice was very important to me. He said, 'You are one of these comedians that think you have to be funny all the time, and you don’t. But you do have to be interesting all the time. So, you just gotta look at it like you’re conducting a conversation with no rebuttal. They’re talking back with their laughter or, in many cases, in my case, their disapproval which is deafening.'"

This really highlights how Chappelle's not just about the laughs. He aims to be interesting and engaging, even if it means facing some heat. His style is edgy and sure, it divides opinion, but isn't that part of what makes art, art? I get that it's not for everyone. 🤷

I used to like them both, but I’ve lost interest in both Corey and Dave’s comedy in the last few years.

Dave Chappelle has basically turned into a “devil’s advocate” for the far right/MAGA and anyone who was willing to be honest with themselves saw this coming years ago after certain statements he was making after Trump’s election.

People just overlooked it because he’s Dave Chappelle. :manny:

I used to watch the 5150 Show pretty regularly when I was in college and I saw Corey live a few times and he was funny as fukk.

But these days he just comes off as an immature “second childhood” ass nikka.

Going on and on about the same tired shyt and claiming to “keep it real” but then backing down when it’s time to stand on his words.

You just hate to see it.

And this is coming from someone that hasn’t been following this Katt Williams debacle like that, I don’t even know what he said.

Am I supposed to know who this is?

I'm not a huge fan of Dave's culture war comedy pandering to right-wing cacs, but if you come at the king you best not miss.

:what:


The culture vultures and white boys used to hide now they out n about proud. First it was Deray, now people openly saying they don’t know who Corey Holcomb is.

This shyt is Reddit atp

Corey says everybody either isnt funny or is gay so this is really a compliment to Dave :heh:

That said, I have noticed a shift with Dave. Dude is a straight up orator who sprinkles in some funny shyt on a occasion now. His acceptance speech for that one award was funnier than his last couple specials.

Corey is both keeping it a buck and bitter because Dave keeps getting props and bags. I say this as a fan of both.
The cycle Dave is in is common for comedians. George Carlin was similar. Compare his stage work from the 70s to his later years.

I don’t Stan shyt out here, you the one calling somebody you don’t know bitter and a hater over shyt talking/jokes

Sounds like you taking the jokes way too personal
This is some fraud ass shyt right here. The fact that you are even attempting to tell people Corey isn't bitter even tho you are a regular listener is craaazy. Here's a search of the word 'bitter' in the 5150 thread and it comes up OVER 100 TIMES

I was a big fan during Foxxhole days but haven't listened in years because Corey either surrounds himself w/ yes-men like Bobby or people he eventually butts heads with and talks about even tho they were kekeing two episodes earlier. Don't even get us started about SAS, Zo or the other people that Corey looked like a bitter nikka about. He called Obama gay, Foxx gay, etc and still hasn't come to turns w/ being molested as a kid and how it affected his view on the world or how he's a deadbeat dad who has another nikka raising his kids, or how he talks all this shyt about women but can't keep them and his wife left his ass. He's a bitter ass nikka that needs help

You not even gonna touch on why there are +50 comments in the 5150 show calling him bitter huh :russ:


You not even gonna touch on how you watch the show weekly and still don't have an opinion on whether Corey moves funnystyle huh :lolbron:


You not even gonna touch on how you were talking about knowing someone, yet when I tell you I used to listen for 1-2 hours a week since the Joe Clair days, you start juelzing :mjlit:
