Dave Chappelle

Common, Tiffany Haddish, Talib Kweli, DJ Trauma, Michelle Wolf, Donnell Rawlings, Talib Kweli, Cipha Sounds, Questlove, Mo Amer, Issa Ali, and more were also on hand for the July 4 shindig.

The Super Deluxe edition of ’Sign O’ the Times’ includes 63 previously unreleased tracks, 45 of those being studio ”vault” tracks.

”I think that this is a moment that we should all be using our platform to do whatever we can, and at least to show young people and those out there that we support them,” Don Lemon said.

”Normally I wouldn’t show you something so unrefined, I hope you understand,” Dave says.

Even more than live music, live comedy needs an audience, but the coronavirus is making that hard. Dave Chappelle is giving it a try, though, via intimate, socially distant and invite-only shows near his hometown of Dayton, Ohio. He also has custom face masks as merch.

This comes right in the midst of Lana Del Rey being under fire for saying a lot of stuff, including things about Doja Cat and Nicki, but Azealia, who famously has long-standing beef with Lana Del Rey and who never seems to hold back any of her opinions, has so far not commented on the Lana situation.

Netflix is presenting a massive new comedy festival in Los Angeles this spring, with over 100 performers, including Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, Kevin Hart, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, Sarah Silverman, Wanda Sykes, Ali Wong, Amy Schumer, and David Letterman, across over 20 venues.

So far winners include the late Nipsey Hussle, Vampire Weekend, Tool, Lizzo, Anderson .Paak, Rosalia, Tanya Tucker, Tyler the Creator, Koffee, Lil Nas X, Beyonce, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, and more…

It’s a very ”indie“ Album of the Year category this year. Nominees for other categories include Tool, Thom Yorke, Big Thief, Tyler the Creator, DaBaby, Candlemass, The Cranberries, Tyler Childers, J.S. Ondara, Andrew Bird, Bad Bunny, Rosalía, Koffee, Burna Boy, and more.

Dave Chappelle promised his ”provocative perspective on the tidal wave of celebrity scandals” on his new Netflix special ’Sticks & Stones.’
