Who says dreams don’t come true? After witnessing the successful tour that found Kanye and Jay-Z coexisting as The Throne, there are murmurs that Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle may be orchestrating something similar for comedy fans. Read the rest of this entry »
During his show’s two-year run (many of us don’t count the third season), Dave Chappelle used his clout in the entertainment industry to reel in rap’s A-listers for weekly musical segments. While watching Snoop rap “Deep Cover” with Tyrone Biggums was cool to see, the real benefit of bringing such names to the show were often found in skits. Read the rest of this entry »
The Chappelle Show remains a staple of early 2000′s pop culture, a show that conjures both joyous and depressing memories because of its impact and untimely exit. Its ability to combine comedy with social commentary and sheer ignorance was both a beautiful aspect and something that would propel him into the upper echelons of the comedic pantheon.

You can stop worrying what to get your brother for Christmas. Whether he’s young or old, sober or stoned out of this atmosphere, there’s bound to be at least one classic flick he can vibe with in what could be one of the best DVD four-pack of all time.
Say it with me now: CB4, How High, Half Baked and the “dubiostic” dark horse Trippin.’ In one package. That’s right, not one, not two, not seven, but four scores of pure comedic genius for only…bongo drums, please…$15.86!
Shoot, for that price, you can cop enough to include a copy in every one of the Crinxmas cards you sent out of you, your lady and your pitbull. Or, maybe even deliver one to your distributor, just to let him know you appreciate not getting the shake from the bottom of the bag. Now, that’d be classy.
Cop: Comedy Pack Quadruple Feature: Half Baked / How High / Trippin’ / CB4 (Widescreen) – Wal-Mart
Time to renew the call.
Dear Dave,
It’s been two years since last we spoke. Two years of a dream deferred. Nothing has changed. You’re still the greatest, I still want to interview you, it can still be on your terms and my dog’s name is still Dylan.
For propriety’s sake it should be noted that if the New York Times motto is “All the news that’s fit to print,” then The Smoking Section’s is “1) Outkast sh*ts on everybody 2) The Wire sh*ts on everybody 3) Dave Chappelle is master class 4) *Kanye Shrug*”
There really isn’t much to say beyond that.
Shoot, I don’t know… let’s talk about music. Let’s talk about the Midwest. Let’s talk about Tila Tequila’s rap career. Let’s talk about my man in the red in this Whispers video. Let’s talk about Ray J’s dating life. Let’s talk about how Badu does what she does. Then let’s talk about why Jay Electronica hasn’t released an album yet. Let’s talk about how TSS readers thought I was a dude until I wrote you last time, then they just thought I was a ghey skin-flautist.
We could talk about politics for 15 minutes or dingleberries for an hour… makes me no difference. I’m in for what you’re in for.
Sincerely,
LC
For the rest of yous, observe TSS Truth No. 3 in action in this recently unearthed clip from circa 2009 with Chappelle performing at Hollywood’s Laugh Factory.
The weather’s broken and it’s no more appreciated than here at TSS. The boots have been put away and the sneakers are out. Wireless hotspots & internet cards begin to look like sound investments when the sun begins to shine through the windows. Through it all, the content continues to fly fast and furious. Take a look back at some of the highlights of the past week: Read the rest of this entry »
A couple of weeks ago LC recited one of the commandments TSS was founded upon some five years ago: Dave Chappelle is an unquestioned genius. Because of this, Dave is one person I’ve always hoped would reemerge. He won’t, I know, but let’s just say he did decide return. Where would it be? What would he do? And is there anything even worth Dave even taking his time to step back into the lab? You damn right there is. Read the rest of this entry »
There are only four universal truths around the TSS e-office:
1) Aquemini shits on everyone.
2) The Wire shits on everyone.
3) *Kanye shrug* is a great form of communication.
4) Dave Chappelle is master-class comedy.
And we hold these truths to be self-evident. Read the rest of this entry »

Dear Dave,
Here’s a little story that must be told…
In the early months of 2005, I was visiting a friend in Manhattan. First day in town, I met with a college buddy for lunch wherein we discussed celebrities we’d like to meet. I said if I just had the chance to speak with Dave Chappelle… to thank him… that would be IT for me. After lunch, I said my “good to see you too,” put De La on the iPod, and began the easterly trek on 29th Street toward my girl’s apartment.
First time in Manhattan. Stakes Is High in my ears. Round about the time I got to Lexington, I was feeling pretty good about my strut. Then… I see a dude down the block, lighting a cigarette. He looks up, pulls his hoodie low and starts walking my way.
“Is… is that…?? Nah…” I think to myself. “Ho. Lee. Shit. It is. It’s Dave Chappelle.”
Over the next 5-10 seconds, I flipped a quick succession of questions on how to react. I was JUST talking about you. This was the IT for me.
“Should I say something? No, I… no. Should I… whoa. He’s looking at me. He’s looking me dead in my eyeballs. Smile, LC. For the love of the Lord in heaven above, smile.”
I smiled and you smiled back.
And you nodded. And I shat myself.
And we passed. Read the rest of this entry »
