True for the youth psyche :smh: but youtube views is still not Netflix money.

Dave's message needs to spread around slowly, so everyone gets a chance to feel it, 6/9 & nikki got about two weeks before they gotta do another stunt, while Dave's special will still be being talked about for years to come.
:cheers:

Yeah I don't know why people feel the need to do that. I don't like Kevin Hart but he too is doing some good things with his shit. Kevin makes more friendly oriented comedy and there's not nothing wrong with that. Like you said....don't gotta down one to lift another.

Some people like Nas and some people like Gucci Mane.... We have all types of music. Let’s have all types of comedy. I say this because I do standup and there’s so many different types of black male comedians. Just appreciate them if they’re good

If Joe Rogan can sign $100 million dollar podcast deal, Chappelle may be able to print his own money if he chose to.

Yeah its a lot of work though. Dave can just show up and do a Netflix so I can also understand if he didn't want to put that work into a podcast.

Yep. And that's how I am with music. 'I can listen to Nas and Gucci so its like I like that we have different options for comedy. Not a big fan of Kevin's standup but numbers say he has a huge fanbase. Some people like that shit. No need to tear him down.
 
I love the Tribe setup...

"I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
We're gonna make this thing work out eventually..."

"Yo I ain't one to complain but there's things in the game
(What's your name?) Consequence, I'm tight, burnt like flames....
(And why's that?) American dreams, they got this ghetto kid in a fiend..."

Maybe his frequent use of the word is on purpose because he uses it to describe EVERYBODY black white or other..maybe he'll explain it at some point. But I feel you can't fight for liberation or claim liberation from a thing if you're still using the terminology and definitions of the tools of your oppression.

We have embraced the term ****** (nigga, nig, etc) waay to much and too easily while at the same time trying to defeat the shackles of white supremacy. the fact that the actual term is automatically redacted while the slang forms aren't, tells you everything you need to know about how contradictory it is.

again, that's the contradictory notion you're feeling from "one nation, under god."

that word speaks volumes. VOLUMES ( a book that is part of a set, or one into which a very long book is divided ). have you listened/digested those volumes? this is REAL ether, what Nas failed to innumerate in his petty rap beef with jay-z. "the shit that make your soul burn slow."

nigga's power over YOU is the power of white supremacy. we got knuckleheads and we have the enlightened men among us that all use the word. enlightenment transcends words and reveals TRUTH. when you get there you'll realize why he is and should so freely uses the term in this day and time and why and the meaning and impact of a term that racist whites are loathe to use in our company has merit in 2020. Cross over. See the forest for the trees.
 
On another note....with as fast as Dave and Netflix got this out there.....why hasn't another high profile comedian done this on their Youtube channel? Seems like it could be lucrative.

Very true but they’re a clown show and people want to see what they or should I say “He” does.

Dave’s at over 7 million though!

Agreed, every comedian doesn’t have the same material or voice to do all types of comedy. Dave can do everything, most others can’t.

You know they like to say there can only be one at a time. :smh:
And once one is really making money “Kevin Hart”, people and other Black comedians run to tear them down.

Just sit back and enjoy what you like and be cool, everything isn’t funny to every person.

How long have you been doing comedy?

What's impressive is Dave will break 8 million tonight by midnight for a 30 minute special.

Yeah, Nicki and Snitchy9 have 40+ million, but that's on a 3 1/2 minute song.

8 million on a 30 minute special is impressive as fuck.

I don't believe this BS. There are no Close Caption options on the YouTube video.
Click to expand...

Maybe they disabled them?

Overnight, an eagle-eyed Twitter user noticed a discrepancy between the closed captioning and the audio and video of the 8:46 performance, which currently lives on Netflix’s comedy channel on YouTube, specifically in the section on Don Lemon. At the 7:45 mark in the audio and video, Chappelle calls the CNN host’s show a “hotbed of reality” with a laugh, takes a sip of his drink, then the camera cuts to the audience and back to him telling the story about being called out on the air for his presumed silence on Minneapolis. The clip posted to Twitter shows a riff in the closed captioning that isn’t present in the video: “Don Lemon is a funny newscaster because he’s clearly gay, but … he’s the anomaly. He’s black and gay, but unlike my other black and gay friends, he’s got this weird self-righteousness …” Then it shows Chappelle preparing to do an impression of the anchor, which tracks with the silly voice he puts on at the 7:48 mark as he begins to recount what Lemon said on the air, which would suggest that a portion of the joke was cut that stayed in the closed captioning. By morning, as the clip spread on Twitter, captioning on 8:46 was disabled. Later in the day it was restored, but the words jump ahead of Chappelle by one line right at the section in question. (Vulture reached out to Netflix and is still awaiting comment.)​
​
What happened here? What changed in a week? Is Chappelle just incapable of going 30 minutes onstage without proclaiming that he doesn’t get what makes queer folks tick but suddenly net-savvy enough to know to filter himself now? Or did he pull those lines because he’s beginning to see the light, because it undercuts his message about the chilling consistency of black pain and disenfranchisement across centuries to single out one subdivision of black man for ridicule? Whatever the case, Chappelle in middle age still mirrors his audience. We’re coming together, and fast nowadays; we still have a ways to go.​

Dave Chappelle’s 8:46 Is Powerful But Not Quite Perfect

The outrage is pure and unfiltered in the legendary comedian’s new set on George Floyd.

I think it can be based in caring about how black people treat and regard one another.

Meh.. the word doesnt dictate treatment as it pertains to one another. Hell, 80% of the time its used in non malicious intent. And in the context of Dave it was probably used non maliciously 90% during that special.

This bitch is trying to distract and hijack the moment by spewing divisive rhetoric to rile up gays and trans. Notice no blacks ever intruded on gay and trans moments or movements and demanded to be included? Only blacks are forced to wedge others in their fight for equal human rights. An ongoing fight thats in its 400th year now.

I think Don Lemon is catching too much heat for no reason....imo

Just,a few years ago when that Jussie Smollett shit happened feminists and the gay community was calling out the black community, particularly black men out. I mean you had Vibe magazine talking about, why black men isn't supporting that liar yet when a black man does the same thing it's silence from these same people will jump into the defense of gay and Hispanics with the quickness.

You seem to regard these as completely distinct people and fights.

Gay folks like James Baldwin didn't have to intrude into the fight for black rights-- He was always in it and pivotally so.

Plenty of black LGBT people have rightfully demanded to be represented in and incorporated into the fight for gay rights.

I didn't like his "white woman I support you" line!

I've been making the point that white women are just as bad as white men.

Focusing On White Men Rather Than White People

Does anybody buy this? It annoys the hell out of me to constantly hear this because it is so insincere. It's a way of hiding their white privilege, making it about "women" and "white men" rather than what it really is about, white women complaining about not being at the very top of the...
