Why Is Dave Chappelle the Best?
Why Is Dave Chappelle the Best?
A comedian was telling a story about Dave Chappelle. It was her birthday and she and Chappelle and two other comedians were performing two sets that night, finishing around midnight.
This was just in the past year. Chappelle has been doing standup comedy for 30 years.
After their sets were over, they went out for dinner and drinks. Celebrating her birthday.
It was 1:30 a.m. and one of the comedians suggested they go to another party.
Dave Chappelle said, “Nah, let’s go back to the comedy club and do another set.”.
The comedian who suggested they go to a party said, “Dave! It’s 1:30 in the morning. We each just did two sets tonight. There’s, at best, five people left at the comedy club. Let’s just go out!”.
Dave Chappelle said, “Man, you can’t get better while you’re partying.”
So they went back to the comedy club at 1:30 in the morning. Dave Chappelle went up on stage and did a half hour of stand up in front of five people.
A few months later I watched him do an hour at Radio City Music Hall (Where he sold out every night for ten nights!).
And at the end of 2017 he put out 4 specials that Netflix paid him $60 million for!
When everyone else is partying, practice your craft.
That’s why Dave Chappelle is the G.O.A.T (Greatest of all time) - James Altucher
