I think I can listen to Dave Chappelle talk about triangles and still be fascinated

[@mkothman2001]

Dave says 'I seen a shape..that I've never seen, my God it has three sides... You will not believe what three side perception does...but it's there. It exist. When I quit chappelle show...I had to square up...my God, can you imagine facing the world on four sides, but this three side seem so Free in a free mason world. I'll always cherish this...and I'll remember this for all times. Triangles bitch.'

[@gorgejung307]

Oh you should listen to Terrance Howard then.

[@matthewmorse3307]

He’s simply one of the best speakers that’s ever graced this earth. That’s why he is the GOAT. I’ve never seen Kevin completely captivated. You know he feels the exact same way and respects the hell out of Chappelle

[@joseabreu-nn5cu]

Terrance Howard has a voice!! Morgan freeman too

[@theophilus1981]

Dave is one of THE GREATEST ORATORS EVER to me

[@pepebvelez]

agree 💯 %

[@yougoboy27]

Dave's set-up and delivery has to be best in the business today. Yes, there was Richard Prior and Eddie Murphy before him, but I have to believe his cadence draws you in and opens you up to the punch line better than any has ever done it.

[@nathanrodriguez914nr]

I'd die happy if Dave Chappelle just chuckled at one of my jokes. That was a wonderful speech.

[@jwells1914]

Dave is the punchline king! 😂😂😂

[@josephrosario]

Chapelle’s monologues are always top.

[@nangsnangs2786]

CONAN needs the Mark Twain prize. Its insane he hasn’t won yet

[@powaqqatsi8]

It's because he doesn't comply with satanist Hollywood.

[@JDelvaMusic]

ABSOLUTELY F***ING INSANE !!!

Comedians LOVE to watch Dave at work, masterful.

Imagine having the great Dave Chappelle speak so highly of you as a comedian? Dude Kevin Hart deserves this, all the stand-up and movies- what a beautiful moment!

[@goodvibes3120]

[@monicabrandt6234]

FACTS AND DAVE IS JUST THE BOMB!!!

[@byroniasmaximus924]

To this day Mark Twain is under appreciated by many, if they know who he is. The ultimate goal of a comedian is to challenge you, question you, offend you a bit, and ultimately make you laugh, despite any reservations you have..

[@samspecials1996]

Dave's speech can make u cry. He's a master

[@juniorperez3140]

That's a buge moment for Kevin to soak in, in front of the whole world by one of the best OG Comedians! That's love and respect! Especially comimg from one of the biggest OGs in this game in this category!

Wonder what Katt Williams thought about this .....hmmm? 🤔🤷‍♂️

[@selam1353]

He is a failed, jealous, drunk and unprofessional hood gossiper. This is where professionals who pursue excellence meet, so this is not his environment at all.

[@Rich0927]

Who cares.

[@dontaviushaul442]

I like katt Williams, but he needs to stop being jealous

[@NewYork81983]

What Kevin Hart has done as far as his career, as an entrepreneur, spending every waking moment to make himself as mainstream as he is... is incredible. But come on, he is maybe... maybe... 1% as funny a comedian as Chappelle is and maybe 2% as funny as Chris Rock. This Goat talk is perplexing

[@JaystarC]

Blessings from the goat

Lots of worthy candidates for this award, but just one to give out. Always going to be a tough choice, but congrats to Kevin Hart for getting it. He's one of the hardest working guys in show business today and has been doing huge sold out comedy shows for 20 years. Well deserved!

[@possibility28able]

Dave chapelle has just absolutely mastered comedy. Master of storytelling interwoven into hilarious anecdotes and just jokes. It’ll be studied for generations
