  • He new the money wasn't worth his soul!

  • I agree with Dave Chappelle. Comedians are born, not made. ( : I am not a funny person. I can't be a comedian. But some people are just funny. They have it.

  • It's strange to listening to talking him in this video because you can't hear laughing people.

  • Dave is Naturally hilarious!!!

  • Show-Pelle. those kind of people bless us even without jokes...

  • Eddie used to be funny.

  • DAVE. YOU ROCK .

    YOU ARE A TRUE GENUINE ARTIST. LOVE YOU MAN.

  • Check this out!!! just came across this new R&B singer thats sick!!

    Precyse-When I See You

  • absolutely memorizing...im idolizing this guy just because of this

  • reggie here charli rose smootchin buddy loves hiney

  • dave is funnier than chris rock and eddie murphy

  • Miss you Dave....Come back soon!

  • Dave Chapelle dont sound to smart, as a black man my self i fell that he feeds to the stereotype.

  • @panamanubian you fell???

    

  • @panamanubian Not to be insulting, but you don't seem too bright either judging by your spelling and grammar errors. Speaking as a black guy myself, I see Chapelle as one of the most intelligent celebrities today, regardless of race. He doesn't have to talk "job interview" all the time to see that. The best medium for communication is one which is entertaining and relevant. A true genius can talk both "street vernacular" and "job interview," effectively communicating with different audiences.

  • @thphaca English is my second language and I think I do a very good job communicating in both languages English and Spanish; however intelligence is measure by someone’s emotional intelligence and also by their maturity, in this case I believe that Dave Chapelle did a poor job displaying bout, he came across a little bit to immature for someone his age and also showed very poor emotional intelligence base on the gestures he displayed during this interview…thanks.

  • @panamanubian he's replying in a simple and understandable matter, that's what good about him, he don't need overcomplicate everything to make his point, you listen to what he says and you understand what's his point is, sadly this meaning that there's some stupider people that would like him, that's one of the reasons why he decided to leave at some point

  • the facts about Dave is that he wasn't bought by the group of elitist. They tried to make him wear a dress in a movie (with Martin Lawrence) as part of the ritual of including him into the famous world. The Wayans Brothers did it in white girls, (dressed as chicks), Martin Lawrence did it in Big Mommas( dressed like a woman) and after you do those thing the elite except you as a puppet and use you to make more movies for them and the make you famous. Dave rejected that scene, never been the same

  • @mrstr1ckyfox gtfo of here with that illuminati bull haha "tried to make him 0wear a dress" come on now don't let those stupid conspiracy theories run your life bro. unless dave himself told you the "elite" tried to make him wear dress don't believe it,!! and come on a dress? i dont think he would mind doing it for comedy, i mean the mans dressed i like prince before haha.

    but any way this man is my favorite comedian.

  • @mrstr1ckyfox And what exactly are the elite supposed to gain by making people dress up as women in films to make people laugh? Lol.

  • Dave's incredibly funny. He's also incredibly smart....

  • Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, Bill Cosby, Dave Chapelle, Chris Rock, Paul Mooney...these are our best black comedians...leave them alone!! put yourself in their shoes...they are human!! grow up!...oh yeah, Dre Parker is next! :D

  • I respect this guy so much...love you dave

  • i want him back too ... where is he???

  • Bill Burr is another one of these people who can just "talk funny". He worked with dave on chappelle show. But he is one of my absolute favorite stand up comedians. And his podcast is just him rambling about whatever he happens to be thinking about and its hilarious.

  • Dave you are the king of reality based comedy. I think you are the funniest dudes I've ever known. We need to see more of your awesome awesomeness in a show or something. Quite frankly, you should take over a show for 16 or let's say 18 years daily none-stop so we could restore our faith in what reality based humor is made of. You're the man I say it and never look back. All the best

  • he refused the dream because he knew that the dream was going to turn into a nightmare

  • @JURYJOHMZOMBIE

    cliche but true

  • I Was Born With That Ability

  • If a white dude turned down $50 million for good and valid reasons,he would be applauded.A Black guy does it,he must be crazy,on crack,mental.He committed the worst sin imaginable.He was offered the American dream,and he turned it down.

  • Charlie rose has to update that intro, what was it designed in fuckin 1992?

  • Eddie and Dave are awesome. Eddie please make a movie where you can say a swear word LOL:)

  • "I' am not the racist. Your the one defending the racist, which makes you a racist. 80% of all crimes are black on white crimes!"

    No they're not.

  • Dave Chapelle is sooooo sexy. I love a nerd. :)

  • If Charlie Murphy don't steal the adult comedy spotlight from Eddie, he forgot to add

  • CHARLEY MURPHYYYYY!!! WAZ UP POTNA!!!

  • "Even comedians can be funny for about 8 minutes a day" --- Groucho Marx

  • If he's drunk you're delusional. Quit trashing Dave.

  • DAVE CHAPPELLE LOOKS DRUNK IN THIS VID OK OK OK I KNOW IM SHOUTING MY CAPS ARE STUCK THIS KEYBOARD SUCKS OK BYE

  • @MrHarry46

    MY CAPS ARE NOT STUCK, I AM JUST AN ASSHOLE

  • yeah some people are just naturally funny have you ever met one of those people that everything they say makes you laugh

  • This guy is by far the greatest comedians ever.

  • Dave Chappelle isn't being cocky when he says comedy comes natural to him. Not only is it natural to him but he is a comedic genius.

  • @jpete3027666 it's not arrogance if it's true.

  • his jokes are the funniest on earth!

  • Dave Chapelle is a rasist, but he is a funny racist.

  • @hungryhobo82

    No he isn't. And being a funny racist isn't cool either.

  • @sleepingiantmedia If you knew anything about Dave Chapelle you would know hes a extreme racist and hates all white people. I guess its ok to a racist as long as your black!

  • @hungryhobo82 You're stupid

  • @hungryhobo82 How does he hate white people when he lives in a predominantly white neighborhood and has stated that his neighbors are some of the best people he's known

  • @hungryhobo82 riiiiiight because white people just NEVER make black people want to be racist towards you with your OWN fucking racist behavior!! And I'm marrying prince Andrew on sunday look out Kate I'm taking your place in the tabloids!!

  • @bitchyb73 I' am not the racist. Your the one defending the racist, which makes you a racist. 80% of all crimes are black on white crimes! I guess its ok to be black and a racist! No human should ever hate another based on the color of there skin.

  • huwhat?! yeaaaaaah

  • Yeah, some ppl are Hyped to be funny and only funny due to scripts like the guy in 'Even Almighty' (there's many others, hes just the first to pop into my mind)...He was not born with the skill to be funny. Typically a comedian starts out by doing stand up comedy.

  • Dave LOOKS funny, he talks funny, he is funny.

  • white people do this black people do that mexicans!

  • where is COSMIO PROPELLOR?

  • ;;;;;;;

  • I dunno....when he says "Eddie Murphy: one of the biggest grossing comedy stars of all time" All I can think about is Dr Doolittle. I love Eddie Murphy, but I had to leave the theatre once I realized that he was now making children's movies.

  • @mrmres Yeah, and laughing to the bank while he does it.

  • its all genetics...

  • Dave not fakin' the funk

  • that person is probably asian... jk!!!

  • NIGARS FAMILY IS BEST

  • Yeah, that one was funny...you fucking NUMB SKULL!!!!

  • thats what i have :D

  • I think the difference is in the back ground. while you are studying hard at the last moment/ hours of your exams, the other fellow is just practicing information he has absorbed before that time, hence it looks like he his cruising by. He only needs to build on the info you are still trying to understand. I strongly believe every human has the capability to learn and excel.

  • WELL SAID

  • Dave is absolutely right. Now there are some successful comedians (e.g., Jay Leno) who are not naturally funny, but truly great comedians (e.g., Dave) are born with their talent.

  • Jay Leno = writers.

  • jay leno sucks ma balls!!!

  • woot!

  • shit ill fucks witcha

  • i USED to cruise by... once you get to college, there is so much crap work, that its impossible just to wing it

  • Dave speaks true here

  • lol nobodys stopping you from killing youself...

  • dave the longer your gone the more your fucking up... and its sad... do chappelle show season 3... and come out the shadows... dude the earth needs you... isnt a dude out there who doesnt love your comedy...

  • what a load of celebrity worshipping shit, just the sort of shit chappelle joked against in his art - live your own life motherfucker - and i suppose i should too instead of commenting on this comment, oh fuck it, im gonna kill myself

  • go ahead kill ur self no1 gives a shit..

  • why would u want him to do something he hates?

    i agree he needs to come out, but not with those motherfuckers who made him hate wat he was doing

  • @CENTURYJOSE never too much weed

  • i dont think youve ever smoked weed

    c'mon man don't post stupid comments

  • You're incredibly funny, Dave. I miss you. Hey, on another note: Have you ever heard of "David A. Arnold?" "Elon James White?" or "James Hannah presents TruthPaste?" See 'em on here, youtube. Funny as Hell! You'll love them...they could be coming for ur spot... And no, I don't work for any of 'em or know 'em..just a true fan.

  • I WANT DAVE CHAPPELLE BACK!!!!

  • im MAYBE a born comedian ^^ but i dont think im gonna do something with it :D

  • It must be hard to be naturally funny. What if you want people to take you seriously and they laugh at you? xD

    Ha, tribulations of a comedian. Sounds like a Dave Chapelle Show sketch.

  • everyone loves eddie

  • Where is the rest of the interview?!!

  • It's on his main website:

    Charlierose(dot)com

    It's from 2004...type his name in "Search"

  • Comment removed

  • so what's dna?

  • Dont Group people for what one person says that is how death starts.

  • I group people based on what an entire "country" is doing.

  • That's not very accurate at all.

  • chapelle has it right comedians are born

  • "Never give up on the ganja."

  • Eddie murphy sells out atleast three times a year doing gay ass movies. Sorry to all of you fans out there, its the truth. It is his own fault for tarnishing his name.

  • Its true, he was soooo funny doing stand up comedy! Then his recent films were just too poo.

  • you gor from stand up to his recent work like it was a natural transition, it wasnt even in the same decade...shit happens, after you fifty millionth dollar u give a shit a little bit less - but eddie's still the man! (even if he did get caught with a transexual in the back of his car :-S...that story still confuses the hell out of me)

  • It's all about money though. If you could make a movie for 3 months and 10 million dollars or tour for 12 months and only bring in 1 million, what would you do? If you notice Eddie Murphy doesn't even make rated R movies any longer. PG movies open his audience to more viewers ultimately increasing his payday.

  • @foolio550 thats for his kids. hard to judge that.

  • @foolio550 He's not selling out, he's selling up. If you don't like his movies, then don't watch them.

  • @foolio550

    Meet Dave and Pluto Nash Forever!

  • @foolio550 ...Ok. Delerious: End of Story

  • @foolio550

    Selling out is when you are face with the choice of staying broke or taking the cash and running with it. Eddie is a grown man who chose to do a different type of comedy these days. How does a man who has already made his place in comedy history sell out. He has already won. These days he is doing what he wants to do. People change in life so why not in there career. 

  • @sleepingiantmedia I agree with you about Eddie not selling out but I see that you might be unaware to the fact that Eddie took a f'ed up contract where he had to do all of those stupid movies hes been doing recently. Everyone..... artists and performers have quotas that they HAVE to meet in their contract or it will be big trouble for them. So eddie isn't really doing what he WANTS to do. Hes stuck in a bad contract that he HAS to finish.

  • @sleepingiantmedia Thanks for the heads up. Yeah man even with that being said a man honors his responsibilities. He has definitely paid his dues while at the same time helped launch countless other black comedians careers. No sell out as far as I can see. He is just a man who has blessed us with countless brilliant comedies and to date 1 of the most perfectly performed and landmark stand up performances. And I bet at the end of this contractual agreement we will see his return to standup:)

  • @foolio550 ehh... he's a comedian first and foremost. This is all speculation, but I'll bet he just sees it as a paycheck now. Basically retired. Do your "sell out" no-brainer brand of comedy and enjoy the fruits of your more important past works. Or just do as much as you can while you can... then do a big comeback stand-up event that is your grand finale (as Robin Williams has recently done).

  • @foolio550 yea have you seen charlie's stand up?...awful.

  • @foolio550----Eddie is super smart he gets paid and stays low key. Cats like him have been in the game for a long time so he knows the ends and out and what it takes to keep from having to take a trip to south africa to get away from the hot press. I dont think he sold out he just been doing what Dave Chapelle has just learned to do in order stay out of media hollywoods evil claw that seems to build and then deconstruct black guys.

  • @foolio550 "its the truth" youre totally right....w/e

  • @foolio550 Yeah, I don't think anyone can deny he's sold out but you occasionally see glimmers of the old funny Murphy (even if it's mostly in his voiceover jobs). But if they rolled the kind of money he's made selling out to our houses, we probably would have made the same choice too.

  • ha maan what happened to the rest?

  • eddie muurphy is that funny on stand up at least.

  • thumbs down for dumb racist ignorant spastic cocksmokers

  • Dave's gotta be high.

    Cool though. So was I watching it

  • Man Chappelle looks stoned

  • lol chapelle always looks stoned

  • no shit! it fucks up the jokes. listen to it in original form not in german lol

  • Eddie's talent gets lost in translation... so scorpok is true on that. Germany has great speakers for foreign movies, but it can't be perfect. Chris Rock, Jim Carrey, Will Smith (and Robin Williams which i'd like to mention) have the best speakers, they are really close to the originals. Robin Williams german speaker is like Williams himself speaking perfect german and i'm absolutely not kidding.

    btw Chappelle's the man!!!

  • eddie murphy isnt funny to me...at all. however dave chapelle is hilarious! in my opinion. I love his material and his personality. I bet he was the type of guy who was considered to be a "lame" in his highskool days but now he's cool as hell and folks actually like him.

  • did you not watch delieous? omg... fuckin awesome!

  • actually, i havent seen delieous.

    maybe i'll check it out sometime.

  • what's delieous? If it has to do with Dave then I am all in.

  • watch?v=o2EIra4SYoE

    is called Delirious not delieous

    eddi is funny in his own way more hyper.

  • it's eddy murhies stand up. Raw. Funny as hell. You need to see Delirious if you like a good laugh.

  • eddy murhies in delieous? i gotta see it

  • watch it there is delerius and raw they are both extreamly funny and verry mature haha dont let younglings watch it

  • Eddie Murphy isn't funny???

    Fuck off.

  • he used to be

  • hope you not dissin Eddie?. there is no dave or ne body and dont forget richard pryor and redd foxx..i respect eddie not funny to you..but eddie is hella funny. his stage act and in person act is different. he might be more funnier than on stage. you just never know unitl u get to know people...irie

  • eddie murphy isn't funny to you?  that means your sense of humor is poor. you have no taste for any comedians.

  • Eddie Murphy is very funny, But I believe that lately (Last 10 years or so), the movies he has been in haven't been the best for his career... But hey, who am I to criticize?

    He's still great, very funny, very smart.

  • yeah i feel that he is going more towards the family comedy lot more view more money haha but he is still a legend !! raw/delerius lol

  • nah

  • has he been smokinnnng? Hmmmm? :P

  • charlie urphey and dave chappelle for me

  • Eddie Murphy and Dave Chapelle my 2 favourite comedians

  • I just watched 48 hours, eddie murphy makes that movie, he is what makes it the best buddy-cop movie ever.

  • to the guy that said white comedians suck, check out bill burr, he is the funniest guy i've ever listened to.

  • I LOVE Bill Burr!

  • I prefer Mitch Hedburg and Louis C.K.

  • jim gaffigan pwns

  • yeah he is awesome one of the best

  • one minute and 68 seconds.

  • hey man it stops at 1:43

  • that wud be 2 mins and 8 secs

  • WTF IS 1:68?

  • nah its better at 1:79

  • Are you retarted or just racist?

  • Hey dude I just wanted to ask you if you knew the definition of irony.I seem to have lost my dictionary hmm...

  • WOW!!!!! Really?!!!!So Ignorant!!

  • lol @ 0:58

  • "was that another language or are you just black?"

    I am African American and I attend medical school at the University of Washington. I will complete my residency in Cardiothoracic Surgery. What do you do for a living? (since talking stupid and sounding ignorant must mean that individual is "black")..

  • For such a smart man, you can't spot a simple troll. Plus nothing worse than some wanker telling you about some degree he's getting at some university. Doesn't mean you're not an asshole.

  • Wanker? I apoligize but I have no idea what that's suppose to mean. Why don't you focus all that negative energy into something positive? Have a coke and a smile..on me.
