at three o'clock in the morning I don't
know he was second at first the setup
for this is that is that his limo driver
says he's got to stop somewhere so he
stops in the ghetto and it's David
together with a limo that's it but the
thing is that you you do exactly what a
donkey would do in the ghetto you put
the joke starts out at minute limousine
I knew he was time to get over cuz I'm
looking out the window my gun store gun
stores so okay there's a little
statement but it's not preachy it's not
but I'm just painting the picture
I'm paint a picture right then we get to
the ghetto that was in Washington I saw
some kids run around playing and I was
like who has their kids just running out
on the streets like this this baby could
be in trouble he might need my help I
got to do something but I wasn't gonna
get out the car okay true story now did
the baby talk to me no was he selling
weed no what I was making a point and
Here I am a black man in a limousine
now we're getting to the class issues
right and together so it's it's truth
ingest I pride myself on saying real
that people don't even notice I'm saying
but they feel it because when people
come up to me they they say that I love
I love that up they can feel it but I
don't think they really know so when you
pointed that out I was very impressed me
was your early comedy autobiographical
and if yes but never directly I don't
want to give away my secret recipe wanna
know what happened to me
[Music]
he's breaking it in on the new season of
the Chappelle show the Dave Chappelle
show
reports say Chappelle receive fifty five
million dollars
[Applause]
man like [ __ ] on TV know if Chapelle
supposedly had it all a fifty million
dollar contract from Comedy Central a
hit TV show
best-selling DVDs in on April 28th of
last year Dave abruptly walked away not
only from the set of the show but from
fifty million dollars which he left his
fans shocked and most everyone
completely puzzled how could one of the
most promising comedians of recent
history have left a successful
television series
how could he have walked away from a 50
million dollar contract start theme the
story on when I'm walking up straight a
bit like Dave that's right you tell it
how it is not really what it feels like
I'll tell you what happened but I can't
say it directly
there's a book to me that encapsulates
my entire experience before I left the
show and the book is called pimp written
by a black American who was a pimp in
the 40s he describes in detail how these
men break women so that they will give
them the money that they make with their
own bodies because when you're a guy
that generates money yeah people have a
vested interest in controlling there's a
story in here so cold it makes me
shudder to think about it well Iceberg
Slim is trying to control the woman that
he finds uncontrollable I will go to
work on the show and I felt awful every
day I felt like some kind of prostitute
or someone I feel so bad why I keep
showing up to this place so he asked
older pimp how he can rein her in and
the older pimp says oh that's easy
iceberg all you have to do is beat that
[ __ ] with a coat hanger I feel like you
know in a lot of instances I was
deliberately being put through stress
and then run or ban and give us some
pills they were trying to get me to take
psychotic medication she'll be so
grateful that you fixed her that she'll
forget you were the [ __ ] that
beat her in the first place
I forgot the hostility of the
environment of show
maybe there's something else going on
maybe these rapes aren't even the worst
of it wouldn't that be something
wouldn't it be something now the end of
this book iceberg slim tells the story
it's kind of the crescendo of the book
iceberg Slim's bottom [ __ ] is at the
end of a mileage
she was bubbling you could see it she
was going crazy he had to let it go it's
hard to let it go a bottom [ __ ] go and
he wasn't ready to let it go because his
organization couldn't handle losing her
the DVDs released and it sets all these
incredible records you know one like
Comedy Central was a hot place to be
when I showed up he said okay there's a
guy in a hotel across the street it's
waiting for you in room number seven we
should go over then I want you [ __ ] him
but before you do I need you to put some
of his stuff in his drink I slipped a
small vial of mineral oil into her palm
I told her it was chlorohydrate only two
drops were not to suck out I did
everything but they made him look right
some wrong daddy leave me something
wrong [ __ ] did you put that stuff in
his drink she said I did everything you
said daddy I put all of it in his drink
he's a wait a minute [ __ ] wait a minute
you put all of it in his drink I knelt
beside him blocking her view with my
back
I wiped my brow and turn to my faced
water my eyes were wide and alarm I said
baby he's dead I think alright [ __ ] let
me think I can fix this for you she
squeezed tightly against me I kept
telling her she had nothing to worry
about after all we were together for
life and her secret would always be safe
with me
she found out about the hoax years later
that's how the whole [ __ ] works ladies
you understand this [ __ ] was at the end
of the mileage she was at 498 she ended
up tricking for iceberg for another six
months
she must earn another 200 tricks for him
do you understand the [ __ ] that they
turn this into I've jumped on that plane
and left my father's bedside which I
regret to this day and I went out and I
sat with these people in this room you
gotta make them up hard and fast to
stick them for the long scratch quit so
slim be as sweet as the scratch no
sweeter and always stick a hole for a
bundle before you sex ax a hole ain't
nothing but a trick to a pimp
this whole dave chappelle thing is gonna
end but i feel like i'm gonna be some
kind of terrible by either what you're
supposed to do with what you're not
suppose so I'm gonna be something I'm
either gonna be a legend or just that
tragic story but I'm going full-throttle
going all the way I want I'm eager to
find out hi this is will resolve itself
the idea of being courageous is that
even though you're scared you just do
the right thing anyway so in 2004 I
walked away from fifty million dollars
and in November I made a deal for 60
million dollars are you having fun this
time around I am making a point to have
fun too you are yes
