Dave Chappelle: Equanimity

For all the people criticising him for being too political or too straightforward: At one point in the show he precisely addresses these people for being sensible and sulky. Great comedy is supposed to offend everyone and anyone. And Chappelle is a grandiose comedian of our time.

This is a masterclass. Look, the jokes arent quick and quirky , but the stories that lead up to the hilarity takes time to build, to appreciate. I enjoyed the stories and I enjoyed the eventual funny twist. Dave's back and he's different, people change, he's not a cooked up pothead anymore, the man is a poet and he's brilliant.

If you want quick crappy jokes then listen to Katt Williams or Corey Holcomb, this is philosophy with a funny bone.

I did wish he didn't bash Trump but thats the season nowadays it seems.

I'm not a fan of Dave Chapelle, but I am a fan of excellence. The way he masterfully crafts his jokes and is so raw and honest, I love it. He made me cringe as he spoke but that's what truth does. Just wow.

Dave Chapelle is the goat and this is one of his finest works. Its current rating is ridiculously low for the quality of this masterpiece.

Sure he skates on the edge, but he's funny and has something to say. Great special!
