If I knew nothing else from Dave's life except this story, it would be enough to respect him as a celebrity and a man.
Touching...I grew up in the Prince Era ...it was great. I love you forever Prince !!!! You are loved and missed.....
2pac
Amen ❤️
ccniceguy2 as a celebritety?
ccniceguy2 say word.
If you see a guy walk away from a 50m, be with that guy no matter what. People who can't be bought are the best people. They're like honey for your soul.
Well said. 🍯
The Average woman would have cursed and left him. His wife is a one of kind lady.
@Blia Yang Who cares?
And he still rich! So bupkus to all the pimps and players groveling for that money, bending over, saying and doing whatever. Be a Prince. Walk away.
@@Mark-pz3lq - nope. If that is what you attract to you, then change your mindset. Plenty of women cannot be bought. You projected your beliefs on to women. You're admitting to not giving women a chance because you assume they "want money." Because of your beliefs, you won't give a woman who wants you for you a chance. You'll do your best to change her until she reflects your sour belief system.
Dave's wife was with him *before* he made it big so your beliefs are yours alone. Stop spreading hatred for women. No woman wants a man who is as angry and bitter as you come across.
Man walked away from 50m to keep his soul.. smartest choice one can ever make.
Very smart indeed Jesus said “What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul”
Mark 8:36-38
That game was given to him courtesy of Too Short! Fun fact!
Turned around and signed for 60mill.
Absolutely
@willthedon 3 you never sold anything , so there
Dave is a gentleman without doubt. Steered clear of titillating revelations about his friendship with the man and went to a positive lesson that he learnt from him instead. Classy indeed
Nice observation sir
very true
Spot on!
You could clearly see Dave Chappelle holding back the onions
looked over his shoulder a few times...;)
Tears pouring down my face cuz I felt that pain thru the screen 😭😢😢..Good to know someone else felt it too...
Come on man!! Is not that. He smoked a joint before the interview and the smoke went into his eyes. 😎💭
ednis32 And it just so happens i am chopping up onions as i text getting ready to grill burgers excuse me i need a tissue!!! Give me a minute please!!!
Indeed
I'm a simple man, I see Dave Chappelle, I click.
marco39120 wow so sad his ratings won't go down cause you clicked..America Loves Him..Oh well can't make all happy..
marco39120 I’m a simple woman
marco39120 I am a simple man. I see someone make a comment like this and duplicate it. Now it will become its own meme
I too am a simple alien, I see Dave and click.
@ He's not for simple people. Simple people are Jim Carrey fans
Just watched the new Chapelle standup. Absolutely phenomenal!
It had zero percent on Rotten Tomatoes lol
Easily offended critics are salty about Dave keeping it real
@Steven Enno it's only 33 percent now
Khalid Ibn Alwaleed subjective I’m assuming as he gave his POV but I know what you mean
He looks healthy and happy. Glad he's back to doing comedy.
Ikr😂💯
I love this story about his sister and her waking up with Prince's guitar pick clenched in her hands while she slept. I get it. Prince had a truly powerful effect on me as a 12 year old girl. He stood out from other men with a message of female empowerment, not to mention the sheer virtuosity and prolific output of his music. He meant the world to me too. His loss still hurts me something terrible on certain days.
Prince was very deliberate. I think he very consciously wanted to show people that a big girl was just as worthy of his attention and love as any other woman. "You don't have to be rich to be my girl, you don't have to be cool, to rule my world..." He liked his supermodels no doubt, but he appreciated it when people showed him *genuine* kindness, respect and love. I'm very happy Dave's sister was given such a wonderful memory by Mr. Nelson.
Well said.
Lee Harrison November 24th 1984 Philadelphia Spectrum. The last show as Prince said the best show! My tickets were six rows from the stage. The first song Let's Go Crazy! In the opening beat when he said let's go crazy. Thousands of flowers blew up all over the Spectrum from the ceiling! If you look at the Purple Rain album there's a flower in the corner. This is 2019 and I still have that flower! Thanks Mom for buying me the tickets. This story touch me on so many levels you have no idea! Mom's gone everybody's gone, but I have great memories!
Magus Black, I Love your comment!! So sweet.....
No, you don't "get" it. The Point is love and worship GOD, not the man who He uses to love people.
@@magusblack512 Very well said indeed ...
How humble can Chappelle get? The best comedian in the world talking nervously about one of the greatest singers in the world. RIP Prince you legend
Prince was beautiful. That's a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing Dave.
Eileen Pizarro PRINCE LIKED IT UP HIS ASS
Please
You love men.....inside of YOU
Jeff Hudson jealousy. H. A. T. E. R
You summed that up perfectly. He was a beautiful soul #Prince #PrinceArmy #TheBeautifulOne
Chappelle never sold out and has the world in his hands...True Playa
Kudos to you, Dave!
You just want to believe that he didn't.
What about his pants leg rolled up (initiation)
Some of the shirts he wears (long dresses)
Showing the baphomet and three 6's.
Maybe not the first time around.
But damn sure now.

Hmmm really?

Jesus died for my sins..I love you Jehovah God YHWH
This story made me tear up. It's really interesting to me how Prince imparted a lot of lessons on people probably without even realizing it. I'm really glad Dave shared that story.
haute03 same here. Im listening to all his songs over and i not only hear the empowerment i feel it.
I think its probable this particular lesson was deliberate and conscious
I applaud him on being brave enough to walk away and go find himself and his own meaning and coming back even better!!
Sharon Felix I was thinking the samething.......much Respect!!
IT'S NOT THE REAL DAVID CHAPPELLE!!! IT TOOK THEM 2 MONTHS TO MAKE A REPLACEMENT AND THEY GET TO KEEP THE $ AND IT DOES WHAT IT'S TOLD! RIP DAVE
Well said!
CBS trolling their viewers splicing one interview into 25 separate videos
I live in India, I'm just happy I can see them. Most US TV channels put up regional restrictions..
It is great with the removal of barriers in our digital age though
Whereabouts in India! Mumbai, Calcutta!!!
Jammu and Kashmir....
Mumbaaai
CBS figured out how to make money on You Tube that's all.
Dave Chapelle friendship with prince is like Chris Tucker’s friendship with Michael Jackson ❤️
Without the tarnish of child abuse allegations...
@@thesolitaryadventurer Headass
Dave was right. Sometimes the smallest moments in time can be some of the most important ones in our lives. A kindhearted guy, am glad he shared this.
Prince had a great smile. I love the picture of him laughing with Dave.
Now that story just done something to my heart. 🙏
Dave Chappelle is such a good guy, so incredibly bright and genuinely kind.
Michael O'Brien - ...and mischievous
The reason I like Dave Chappelle is because he seems so down-to-earth and human when he talks to people, even when he's performing. He's really funny, but he's not like Jim Carrey or Robin Williams was during interviews - they have/had a really hard time turning off the rapid-fire comedy and just being a human being. Being normal seemed to be something that was uncomfortable for them.
prayforjonas I appreciate your thoughts on Dave. I've personally met Dave Chappell bc his best friend back in the day was David Edwards who was the guy on the "Real World" LA, who use to live with me & we were close friends. Anyway, Chappell came through a few times & I have to say, he was very down to earth & he wasn't annoying like a lot of other comedians that I've met, such as, Jamie Fox, extremely annoying & even regular people that were funny but not comedians. I met this guy once that was very funny, at first, but after the first 15 minutes was absolutely annoying & too much. As the saying goes, there's a time and place for everything. Chappell understands this.
BreuckelensFinest how about picking up those names you dropped if you don’t mind lol
I think Dave seems so open when compared to Carrey and because he seems comfortable with who he is as a person and because he has love for himself. I don't think the other two have/had enough of that and it's important if you're under so much scrutiny in this business. I've got nothing but love for these men but it does show through interactions if a person is at peace with himself. Just like Prince, he also had that aura and was easily able to put you at ease just by sitting in a chair and being interviewed about life.
Sounds like it’s more uncomfortable to you.
Yeah! Well said
You can see the pain is still there from losing such a close
Friend, and truthfully, it never goes away…Chapelle will always keep it 100, just like Prince did, I love him for sharing that Prince made sure to let her know”‘I see you, and I appreciate you” …
I went to see Chappelle in Houston for a Katrina benifit and i sat front row, now i noticed him chainsmoking ciggs ledt and right so i decided to offer him my lighter. He was like thanks brotha and later when i stood up to go pee, he said will the real slim shady please stand up because my hair was bleached blonde and the whole crowd laughed at me. One of the greatest moments of mt life and a killer show went with it. Love this dude.
You want to know HOW much somebody loves his/her friend so much, look at the obvious pain and the way he looked away from the camera when he was talking about him.Dave was never ready for Prince to leave this world.
Michael Jackson & Chris Tucker
Prince & Dave Chapelle
Trzy tv
Nice observation😃

Prince and Chris Rock had a cool bro-ship too. In fact CR was one of very few of his friends in entertainment that got to interview Prince for a VH1 (remember them lol) honors special back in the day for Prince's Emancipation CD/Album release. #classic #respect #3goats #prince, #chrisrock #davechappelle
Mj and and eddie griffen and eddie murphy were cool too he was cool with a bunch of comedians but chris tucker I believe was his true friend
Richard Pryor
MJ was pretty good comedian himself. He was really witty and hilarious
Dave’s right about moments. I took my 7yr old son to a soccer game when I was stationed in Germany and on comes teen phenom Christian Pulisic literally a few feet in front of us (we were 2nd row from grass). So I yelled something like-“c’mon Christian we’re here to see u from America!” The German spectators looked at us. A few minutes later he scores a goal and ran straight at us to celebrate. That’s a great memory for my son who’s now 11.
Amazing!
"Love God" great message.
Biggest part of the whole message
Yep. Intriguing. Had that put on his picks to give chicks that scream I love you.
Michael Jackson & Chris Tucker
Prince & Dave Chapelle
Love people, a grater message….
@@eova I LOVE BOTH
Just love how he swerved away from the tabloid question and instead gave a life memorable answer on his friend. Dave is very classy
sigh...I miss Prince so much. ♥♥♥
Dawn W. Williams I do too

How could you not like the REALNESS of this dude?
Prince had plenty of friends but general its quality over quantity.
The way he tells this story, with the endless amount of feelings behind it. That is friendship that is respect for another human.
One of the best Prince stories ❤️
I had no idea they were friends! I just knew that Prince makes his guests pancakes thanks to Chapelle's Show
BlooperWorld and made a record with dave dressed as him for real lmao
BlooperWorld 😂😂😂
not true. Prince didn't make the pancakes, his cook, Randy made them. He served them to his guests. lol
Dave Chappelle always says the wisest words, even when he's talking about casual things, he can say just the right thing to make people understand and think.
Left us all too soon. Rest well Prince.
You know that was very deep. Prince looked at her and could clearly see she was in the throes of idol worship. Prince reached down to her and placed into her palm a guitar pick that had written on it, "Love God". Now that is deep. He was telling her, I love you too, but LOVE GOD more.
Powerful message......
Prince was a devote Jehovah’s Witness.
Agreed💯❤
Prince knew who we all should love...
Thank you, Dave. Continue to be kind.
Prince had a powerful effect on me. I was lucky enough to be backstage several times and run into him face to face and his power was something I've never felt from another human being ever ?!
Please tell us more. I'd be fascinated to hear details.
That brought a tear to my eye, how Prince connected with Chappelle's sis!
😭😍🤩😎
People often focus on the shade, Prince was many things, most of all a workaholic and perfectionist, but ALL for the fans.
He worked HARD so we could escape our problems.
love...
Pure and simple.
I admire you for expressing this so well. Thanks
Shout out to all the artists and celebrities who realize how important they are to their fans, and who take time out to appreciate them even if they're in a hurry. I saw a famous black female poet, signing books and she stayed and signed every copy available, and when there were no more copies available she made her assistant go get copies off the shelf and bring them and was signing copies of the book and giving them away for free. rest in peace Queen. MA
I Adore Dave Chappelle! He is LIFE! Humble, Cool, & Intelligent. Definitely a REAL ONE.
Dave Chappelle could have bragged about his friendship with Prince but instead he shared a story about his sister. Little did he know, that guitar pick Prince gifted to his sister was serendipitous.
I really love their friendship, overlooked but so impactful
That was very sweet and kind of Prince ro give his sister such a beautiful gift....
Very humble, heartfelt and sweet memories....how blessed you are to have them...❤
What a awesome man to listen and respect his views on life. God Bless you!!
This helps a bad day turn into a good one.
Very touching....Dave looked like he was about to shed a tear!
Salute to Dave for sharing that VERY CLOSE TO HEART experience... That's so dope I appreciate both of them more even than before wow
Dave you the real. we need you now.
what an amazing story!! full circle
6 months after you wrote this he came back with Netflix specials
I'm inspired by Dave man. Good guy.
I'm so glad Dave came back to us. I've seen him numerous times in the SF / Oakland areas and loved every interaction.
Two of my absolute faves
PRINCE 💜 AND DAVE 😎
The part where he describes his overweight sister receiving the guitar pick from Prince adds to his greatness, somehow, since I thought it couldn't be added to. But it reminded me of a quote, "I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good that I can do or any kindness that I can show my fellow-creature let me do it now and not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again." Stephen Grillet
Cheers
I fkn love Dave, man. So glad he's back doing what he does best cuz he is...The Best!
I could listen to him telling stories for hours. He tells them so beautifully and that sound he makes when pronouncing the "s" is so cute.
Dave is just a kind and brilliant soul. He is amazing.
I love that Prince told her to love GOD. He's the one we have to treasure most.
Not just kind words. So much depth. I was at work when I found out Prince was dead. And I had to run to the restroom stall... close the door... and ball... and I remember feeling sad... angry... confused... and emotions that I still don't have words for... It still hits hard... I'm still angry... but i think he walked his own walk and i love giving my own tribute here and there by being influenced and inspired here and there. And taking those lessons and giving them back to folks here and there. Much love.
Much love Steve, i felt the same way my friend, Prince death hit me hard, i'm still trying to get a grip on it 🎶
I watch this video every so often and it's always such a nice story to hear.
What an amazing story. Prince was so amazing💜💜💜💜💜 so appreciate the humbleness of Dave sharing this story❣❣❣❣❣
Dave is such an interesting and wise man who has had some amazing life experiences we can learn from. His views are also compelling. You just have to listen to him to realise there is nothing he is saying that is cancel worthy. He is bringing positivity to the world.
Cried a bit watching this. Love them both, Dave and Prince.
So true. A moment is just a moment to a star. But to the fan it will be remembered for their entire lifetime. Rip prince
Such a beautiful story and i can totally see Prince being that kind of "beautiful" rare human being that he is...there will never be such an amazing soul and gifted artist like Prince!
He is the consummate story teller,he makes you lean in without realizing it!
I was there too and Prince sprayed me with purple water from that glorious guitar looking at me with his trade mark broken down "mug" expression. I slept out in the ticket line for 3 days. The concert was mind blowing!👏👏👏
from james brown to prince to dave chappelle. its beautiful to see what happens when true artists engage with everyone. i hope we see more of this
Awesome story! Prince was a freakin' musical god!
This dude is genuine, authentic, 100..
Just when I thought I couldn’t love Chappell’s everything any more. He was friends with Prince?! That story just raised me up amen
Dave's story telling is like a modern day Mark Twain with it's sentiment and Americana. It's so simple to understand yet so deeply moving and memorable.
😳 Dave Chappell was about too breakdown crying... that’s when you know someone lost and still misses a close close friend.
A genius recognizing another genius is a beautiful thing.
Gayle, another great interview 👍😍
It's so touching to hear stories of celebrities who fan out over other celebrities and their influences on each other. It's pretty dope
Hi David. Stay positive.
God bless all.
Prince was So talented and beyond knew it and beyond deserved it. It is awesome that Prince picked his Friends Well !!!
I like how he kind of dodged his personal feelings about Prince and their relationship publicly. He kept it peripheral and humble. I don't always agree with Dave but this is so sweet. You can see his emotions are there.
Dave's Wisdom is Amazing!!
i really liked that story.
Great story teller this man. Like a kid being read to, I can listen all day
First time ive ever seen him being himself not on stage or in a movie performing, what a genuine guy 💯
Game blouses
Makaveli Lives On 😂😂😂
Loved that skit!!
Forever ;)
Classic‼
That's where I'm headed now LOL
Could b the .1 funniest lines from a comedian triple d.c. was a funny entertainer for tht one
Did y’all catch that? When he said his sister was screaming “I love you “ and prince handed her the pick that said “love god” meaning with out god he would’ve never been PRINCE, so love your creator always first.
So deep
God didn’t create me my parents did..
@@Ariez___ who created them ?
@@thebuzz7119 their parents.. there is a thing called genetics and biology …
@@Ariez___ explain the biology of the first human then , and if you try to say the Darwin theory just know it’s been debunked by modern science
Dave is very humble dude. Very rare with someone who achieves this level of fame.
Ah yes I was 11 when I started loving Prince. He was always so fascinating and different and his music was never boring. He is not my favorite singer or favorite dancer or favorite songwriter. He is my favorite entertainer because he does all of those things and more and was so brilliant at it. RIP Princey God bless his soul
When Johnny Cash was asked what does it feel like to be the best guitar player and song writter in the world, Johnny Cash said, "Ask Prince".
Not Johnny Cash, Eric Clapton! Same point though!
i truly undeniably respect any and every person of color who lays it all on the line to do whatever part necessary to inspire uplift and try to bring forth awareness to our community..r.i.power Prince Rodgers Nelson
Great piece of food for thought.
I practice that alot. The simplest compliment can mean the world at the right time and to the right person.
Dave Chappelle is one of those people you can watch evolve as a person from afar because of how he communicates through his comedy and his interviews. I like the older, more evolved version of him. He is free and he calls other people to be free.
I don't like hwo Gayle was trying to wrangle Chapple into saying he WAS Prince's friend. She wouldn't let up so he could respond freely.
I get exactly what he's saying. I was 9 when I first heard Prince then as a teenager in concert so close I could almost touch him. Wendy played the intro to Purple Rain & you could hear a pin drop. I started screaming at the top of my lungs. The strobe light stopped on my row & I started screaming Prince I Love You. He looked right at ME & said I Love You Too Baby!!! From the very beginning & always.....I'll never forget that. A former classmate of my sister's dad had died and I sent my condolences on fb She thanked me (it had been years) but jokingly asked "Do you still Love Prince? Ha. Ha. I said Look I told you that man told me he loved me and I'm holding him to it and if he ever comes looking for me (how idk my dream ok) my husband would have a problem! I was/am devastated he's gone. I dreamed about him about 4 or 5 months ago. I was crying and he wiped the tears off my face and asked me why. I said because you left me you weren't supposed to leave me. He said I didn't leave you. Because we love each other I live in you and you live in me so we're always together so when you miss me just think of me and I'll be there. I woke up and my face was wet. I was listening to my playlist on Spotify on my phone & the song Slow Love came on. I hadn't listened to that song in a long timeq (from 1987 Sign O the Tines). After it went off I got out of the car. I went in a store & 5 min. later the song Slow Love by Prince came on! I know the department store doesn't have Spotify. Sometimes it feels like I think of him & something like that will happen.
you have issues lol
Dave is an authentic man you can tell how he relays a story about his sister, prince and his heart is in the game and not his wallet!
Chappelle is an icon himself we need this guy in our world.He is so brilliant, funny ,kind and intelligent.
i dont see anything wrong with going to Africa, its very Beauitful. there alot of amzing history there thats very powerful.
Go back and stay there
