So we running with the “DaveChapelle is for white ppl” narrative now?

[Robbie3000]

DL definitely had a show in 97. Bernie was in Friday, playas club, etc in addition to comic view and other comedic shows. That HBO special wasn’t until like 2000 and the KOC tour was going on like a year before. And I’m not talking small theaters and clubs im talking 20k+ stadiums which is what that tour was doing nightly. IDK why y’all are trying to act like Dave was some huge deal pre Chappelle show or he was known in the black community. He just wasn’t and there is nothing wrong with that

nikka, I just gave you a link with an interview where they ask Dave why he turned down Kings of Comedy.

I’m not making shyt up you weirdo.

Kings of Comedy was in 2000. I should know, I was at the taping in Charlotte. I actually lived shyt you are googling.

BET and TV One do not simply have "more black people" as workers.

They were both founded by black business people (Robert Johnson and Cathy Hughes, respectively),
and their programming has been historically targeted towards black people specifically.

Comedy Central was founded by white programming execs, and has been demographically targeted towards white male viewers since its inception.

Btw, Kevin Hart turned down a Comedy Central offer to produce Real Husbands of Hollywood for BET. So for some black people, actual black ownership/control matters over lip service militancy.

Nah.

By the time Kevin Heart made such a bold and pro black decision to be on BET it was fully owned and run by Viacom… who also owns Comedy Central.

Lmao.

Is Dave married to a black woman ?

Does Dave have black kids ?

Where does Dave live at ? What are the demographics ?

Dave spends a lot of time talking about the struggles of poor people. Where did he grow up ? What did his parents do for a living ?

He counts Kanye West as one of his close friends ? What do you think about Kanye ?

He counts Joe Rogan as one of his close friends ? What do you think about Joe Rogan ?

Didn't Neal Brennan use to work with Dave ? What do you think about Neal Brennan ?

He also counts Talib and Mos Def as part of his close friends. What do you think about Talib and Mos Def?

Def Comedy Jam, Nutty Professor, just because his comedy blew up in white spaces, doesn’t mean black ppl didn’t fukk with him. Ppl are taking his meteoric rise to fame outside of black spaces, and using it against him, because white ppl are riding with him in the Netflix scandal. Just read through this thread, and you can already tell what they’re upset about when they say Dave’s comedy is safer for white spaces.

He came up under Mooney, and Pryor. All comics who’s comedy gave them rooms in white areas and before white crowds.

Basically

Dumbed down as fukk. Binary ass thinking is killing a lot of these nikkas

Nikkas would say the sky is green if a white conservative said it was blue because "If ____ is agreeing with you"

Don't even realize they're letting the things they hate control them

Think for your own fukking selves

And if you were there you would know that it was a successful tour years prior to the movie. So I’m supposed to believe that in 97-98 Dave Chappelle was big enough and well known in the black community that he could share an arena tour slot with Steve Harvey and Cedric?

look at this photo.

I’m suppose to believe Dave is gonna be here in a 3pc? I don’t believe Dave was telling the full context of this scenario. Sorry

Whats funny is that Aaron McGruder and Dave grew up almost exactly the same. Black and middle class in the DC suburbs in the 80's.

 

[O.Red]

Nah boondocks was definitely worse

If that's how you feel I won't argue it

But that tweet holding Boondocks to some moral high ground over Chappelle show is the stupidest shyt I've seen today

Real shyt, some of the "satire" from Boondocks came off almost malicious

Yep

Although Boondocks is hilarious I've always gotten the vibe that Aaron McGruder don't like black people and Boondocks was his vehicle to finger wag

Added with his blatant worship of Asian culture in the show he's looks funny in the light

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

Yep

The comic wasn't like that at all
More intelligent and less cism

Who said this shyt?

If youre gonna make such claims, at least post shyt to back it.

The imagery of Dave in that pic

In a baggy ass 3 piece

He also counts Talib and Mos Def as part of his close friends. What do you think about Talib and Mos Def?

I think that since He is close friends with Kanye, the c00n of c00ns, and Joe Rogan, a white supremist sympathizer, I don't care that he is friends with Talib and Mos Def.

Talib got an interview where you already know what time it is with him talking about how he wasn't much of a fan of Joe Rogan but then they drank and smoked weed at a party and I guess they cool now. So yeah, not biting.

For the record I don't fukk with Dave cause virtually every white person I know that scores higher than a 4 on the racist scale LOVES dave chappelle.

Same white dudes who argue they should be able to proudly wave the confederate flag if they want are the same white dudes asking me if I watched his last stand up special on netflix and then proceed to tell me about all the tranny jokes like i give a fukk.
