In the Actor Guild interview, When Chappelle about to enter the industry, his father ask him _"Name your price, when the price goes higher than that. Leave!"_
So,i guess the title of the GOAT is wrong then if it's really a generational thing,Dave ,in your opinion ,is the greatest of this generation of comics,you can't have a greatest of all time for every generation,their can be only one for all time,so that would make Dave Chappell the G.O.H.T (greatest of his time)
@meygag he quoted the Bible but paraphrased. After the flood God made a pact with Noah to never destroy the world by means of water, next time it’s fire
@@airjoca yeah honestly. Before Chappelle it was Carlin. And in my opinion, no one else is a close 3rd. There are many gifted stand ups out there, but Chappelle and Carlin hold the #1 and #2 spots side by side.
HAHA! Yup! Just watched it a week ago. When he ended his speech, ooh, I don't think those SJW idiots at Harvard realize the shit would stir up! Haha! Glorious!
@@kakageldicharyjumayev4772 God put the rainbow in the sky as a promise to Noah that he would never again destroy the earth by water. It'll be by fire next time. Dave's just saying he (Dave) is coming harder in the next special. He's bringing the fire.
@@kakageldicharyjumayev4772 It means that we were given one chance at forgiveness. The next time is punishment. But in scripture, the rainbow means that God will never flood the Earth again. James Baldwin just wanted to use that symbolism to mean that worse is yet to come and everyone had it good the last time.
*@isthis myrealname*- yes... THANKS for saying this! Have your own brain! ... meaning read news from multiple sources that are funded by individuals and not corporations. And look into who is funding the news source that you get your news from and where there might be conflicts of interest that affect what they tell you!! So many people just blindly trust CNN, FOXnews,MSNBC or they trust celebrities or Facebook! You need to have your OWN brain!! Formulate your opinion on research not just what you heard someone else say. Thanks, man.
I legit cried when he said “Professor” Dave Chappelle! I know he is an honorary professor, but as the introduction said, he is a true professor because he actually gets us thinking about issues we already know exist, and motivates our minds to collectively work on changing these things!
I love how Dave Chappelle took off his metal. His honor is being at the microphone & the sound of laughter he pulls out of thin air. In the Age of Spin, we need the laughs. #DaveChappelle #WEBDuBoisHonor
I can't understand why people compare him with Kevin Hart. I watched Kevin's 'Laugh at pain' and then Dave's 'killin them softly' 'for what it's worth'... It was no contest.
2:08 - 2:12 reminds me of that Key & Peele sketch where “obama” is shaking all the white peoples hands but giving hugs to the black guys😂😂 Life imitated art
Dave would be an amazing university lecturer. The way he can articulate ideas and concepts in a quick-witted and understandable way would serve him well in academia. Hopefully he’ll consider it at some point in life.
You have to look for the good comedy bro, I'm from England and have been a fan of dave since Robin hood men in tights, I'm happy that you've found him now you can search his back catalogue of comedy on you tube, enjoy there's a lot
because most of his content wouldnt suit the main stream media narrative... dave talks about the real problems unlike others comedians who make jokes about their personal life..
I was blessed enough to watch his stand up last year live. Listening this man speak and also looking around me to all the people faces when he would say something regular minded people couldn’t handle was priceless.
@litevi prople rebeled against god. noah warned them for 100 years that God will flood the earth if they dont stop there wicked ways. He told them there was a flood comming they didnot believe. The bible says as in the days of noah so shall it be at he second comming of the LORD Jesus Christ. Christians are telling people Jesus is comming. noone wants to believe. Th bible talks about fire falling from the sky at the end times. People are disobidient to God. Lgbt are taking the rainbow outa context. It never rained before in the days of noah until that flood started to hapen. The rainbow was a promise that the earth wont be flooded nomore... its the fire next time. Bible prophesies are being fulfilled
Love maker- You're right. He delves more deeply in this speech he gave to Allen University, in which his grandfather was once the President of. He calls it "a crisis of conscience." It starts at 2:30... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--NN-KWdZBI4.html
Mike Smith he’s saying that Hollywood kills people, Mentally and physically. He “left” because he was having a breakdown just like Mariah Carey and Martin Lawrence. And he, as he stated “lived to fight another day”. Also he said one of the black people were accused of rape that he probably didn’t commit. And the other committed suicide. Sounds like Hollywood to me
Nice pull! I wouldn’t have noticed that. That 2007 tour was real tight when he did his encore he did some sort of similar metaphorical explanation, too. It was a treat into his mind. Very cool.
STILLthePILLAR ][+ foh with this BS... Free thinking should still imply ‘thinking’, you know. Unless you qualify Ye’s incoherent verbal diarrhea as structured thought, in which case there’s really nothing I can do for you. I’m a fan of his music myself, but that does not mean that I condone speaking without knowing anything about what you’re saying. And no he does not owe me anything, but if I’m gonna be judged by people on the basis of my skin color (which is wrong), I’d rather it be Chappelle or Kaep, and not Kanye. That’s my point, you do you.
I had the opportunity to be in attendance for this event. It was truly inspirational to hear all of the great achievements each of the honorees had contributed. I highly recommend you all watch the full event.
@junekid629 so many Crabs ding ding you sir are a crab ,haters never prosper ...but continue on ,I'm sure your going to give me some of your banter for pointing this out !
Referencing the reason why or rather...when he left his show? You know how Dave tells as story that is references something he has already said or that we know. He has lived to fight another day.
Dave Chappelle is such a swell person. He is humbled and admires all the other honorees and recognizes their greatness even though he is so well recognized. A great man who was raised right
Glad for the opportunity to see this video. The brilliance that brings the humor that forces you to pause and ponder. What kind of asshole he, she, or it must be to be so aligned. PUNCH LINE!
"We know when to quit!' - The voice and tone he said here reminded me of old school Dave Chappelle and dismissed all my doubts about the "Dave Chappelle replacement" shit.
Anyone make the connection between Muhammad Ali throwing his olympic gold medal into the Ohio river and Chappelle taking off his gold medal at the end of the speech? Man is a genius.
extremely gifted. He has the spark of genius. Someone who comes up with ideas natutally most have never thought of. He has the ability to express the intangible.

Dave Chapelle is the greatest comedian of all time. Will be seeing him live soon and I hope to see more of him than just one final special. Hope he keeps going!
Greatest of all time? People forget that Eddie and Richard didn't have the internet and social media. In Richard Pryor's day TV actually stopped broadcasting at Midnight. There was 24 hour comedy channel and definitely no RU-vid. A freaking cat video can get One million views in today's world.
"James Baldwin managed to tell white people what they feel like to be around." He saying this around white people at Harvard while receiving an award. Dave Chappelle is the most fearless comedian living today.
1969Vanessa G what do you mean ? If anyone talks about black people in today’s society, they would literally be labeled a racist nazi and attacked for the rest of their life but if you talk about white people you get a Medal of Honor... which is pretty messed up
KNOCK KNOCK who's here This is a complete misunderstanding of what Dave was saying. Also it is far from the meaning of Baldwin’s own work and experience. Both men appear to be saying instead that white people are capable of much good, but it hurts all of us when they cannot seemingly confront their capacity for evil. This is also not unique to white folks. Don’t forget that Dave has interacted with and worked with more white people than the average black person.
