Dave Chappelle celebrated his 30th anniversary as a comedian with a 16-show residency at Radio City, which wrapped up last night (8/24). The final night was a double celebration, as it was also Dave’s birthday party. As announced, the guests were Ali Wong, John Mayer, and a DJ set from Lil Jon…

The second to last night of Dave Chappelle‘s 16-show Radio City residency was last night (8/23), and it had some major surprise guests. The announced guests were Yasiin Bey (aka Mos Def) and Talib Kweli, who played some Black Star songs together…

Like at her headlining set at Panorama last month, Solange played with the whole stage drenched in red, her extremely tight band in matching outfits, and she again filled the stage at one point with 20 or 30 horn players…

Every show so far has had some surprise unannounced guests, but this was the only one actually billed as “Very Special Guest,” so you knew it had to be legitimately special. And it was. Chappelle’s guest was Kendrick, who played a full set of fan favorites.

Chappelle’s Radio City run continues on Saturday (8/12) with Michael Che & Colin Jost (and Leslie Jones), whose new ‘Weekend Update’ summer edition premiered last night.

After resting for a couple nights, Dave Chappelle continued his 16-show Radio City residency last night with neo-soul great Erykah Badu, who Chappelle called “the Khaleesi of hip hop, breaker of chains.”

Chris Rock will join Chappelle again tonight, as part of the comedian’s 16-show Radio City run.

Also: Ashy Larry! Chapelle’s 16-show Radio City run continues tonight with his first of two shows with Chris Rock.
