He just wants some paper or want his fans to stop supporting viewing his content.. that’s temporary.. they not gonna give him full ownership back of his material..they just gonna let it sit or give him some paper possibly.. but they still will own the content forever..even he didn’t know the content was being rented out to netflix or hbo max.. that’s how much disconnected he is to the ownership of the material
In the end....a average nigga don't even own his house...miss taxes...they coming to come get yo shit...I wish I was in his shoes..making 25 milli and shit.. brah
You own your own company..self made millionaire.. you don’t have to worry about someone owning your company and begging people not to give them contracts and making your company rich without you receiving a single dime from it... he has more money than you but you have more control of your destiny.. money wise he likes what he has but theres things about you that he wish he was in your position.. remember this convo exist cause everything ain’t so positive in his world and he literally said it really messes with him about money being made off his sweat and blood and him not receiving a dime from it and possible future money being made from it without him receiving any compensation for it..so always remember two people could be looking over each other fence wishing their grass look like the other person’s
Again fam, stop breaking up your sentences. Plus you stop mid sentence so it looks like you retarted. You literally wrote
This has nothing to do with power. This is simply about a contract. Dave messed up by not signing his new deal or negotiating royalties for future platforms.
They didn’t finesse Dave. Comedy Central invested millions into Dave which at the time was an unknown act. He was just a rising talent.
Post like this is mind blowing..smh. This way of thinking is what got Dave Chappell in the situation he is in now. It is an emotional one which solves nothing.
If you don’t shoot your own content and own it than you will always have to juggle dealing with slimy companies especially if they the investors and it deals with Hollywood/entertainment industry.. the joke is remember that whole dame dash breakfast club interview that cause so much of an uproar on bgol.. well goes back to that.. remember I told you than that interview was way bigger than most could comprehend and even though his delivery wasn’t great I understood what dame meant.. yrs later you seeing the darkside of being a company man.. the product which was the talent is the least paid person off the content.. the company made 9 figs and the person who actually created the content hasn’t even made 10 percent off of it
I was with you until that last part of your response. This is and always was about money. Nothing more nothing less. That Greenback. That Gringo Peso.
He didn’t know at the time because he was unaware of that scenario at the time. Can you blame Dave for not having foresight? Absolutely not! However, Dave is no different to me than T.O doing sit ups shirtless.
He didn’t fuck with their money.. Comedy Central rented out his content with 2 diff streaming companies..they paid them and than they showed it on their platform.. Dave pushed his feelings about it and both platforms took it down.. understand Comedy Central still got paid for it.. hbo/Netflix paid for something and didn’t get their money’s worth.. hbo, Netflix, and Dave was the losers here.. Comedy Central the winner.. hbo/Netflix lost money, Dave got no money, and Comedy Central made money and got off like a fat rat..they still own his content and still have the ability to rent out his content to another company
This literally just happened as of recent.. they only sold it to 2 networks.. are they trying to shop it around right now? .. the show hasn’t lost value hell it might have increase since it’s not available anywhere.. Comedy Central don’t care if you can see it they only care about if they can make 9 figures off of it.. your views dosent make them money a big company willing to pay their asking price does
He walked away from his contract that would have solved that. He was on some nigga shit and paraded around acting like he didn’t give a fuck. I understand why he did what he did but it was not wise with his paperwork not right
The show is available digitally on about every major digital platform. Moral victories ain’t worth shit when it comes to the money Dave missed out on.
You’re an idiot. His show is one Comedy Central’s biggest cash cows. They’ve fallen out of favor with comedians because nobody needs a Comedy Central special or TV show to do shit anymore. Ratings are down across TV networks. Once the Netflix and HBO money dries up, they’ll get really equitable with Dave real quick.
The Dave Chappelle show is not a cash cow any more. It was at one point but that time has passed. You can squeeze some residuals out with a few deals tho.
Yep and just think Comedy Central owns his content so they could rent it out overseas in any foreign market for as much as they want until the end of time and no American could even know it’s being televised or streamed somewhere else.. so while Americans are screaming victory somewhere in Australia they like I love Tyrone biggums and nigs in the states won’t even know it
