Chappelle Speaking (Skit)

These kids said everything
About gender and this and that and the other
But they didn't say anything about art

And this is my biggest gripe
With this whole controversy with The Closer
That you cannot report on an artist's work
And remove artistic nuance from his words

The more you say I can't say something
The more urgent it is for me to say it
And it has nothing to do with what you say I can't say

There is everything to do with my right
My freedom of artistic expression

That is valuable to me
That is not separate from me
It's worth protecting for me
And it's worth protecting for everyone else
Who endeavors in our noble noble professions

And these kids didn't understand
That they were instruments of oppression

It will be decades before you ever see someone
In my genre as proficient as me

I am, maybe, a once-in-a lifetime talent
I'm telling you the truth
