Dave Chappelle

David Khari Webber "Dave" Chappelle(/ʃəˈpɛl/, born August 24, 1973) is an American comedian, screenwriter, producer, and actor. After beginning his film career in 1993 as Ahchoo in Mel Brooks' Robin Hood: Men in Tights, he landed major supporting roles in box office hits including The Nutty Professor, Con Air, and Blue Streak. His first lead role was in the 1998 comedy film Half Baked, directed by Tamra Davis and co-written by Neal Brennan and Chappelle himself.

In 2003, he became more widely known for his sketch comedy television series, Chappelle's Show, co-written with Neal Brennan, which ran until his retirement from the show two years later. By 2006, Chappelle was called "the comic genius of America" by Esquire and, in 2013, "the best" by a Billboard writer. The show continues to run in popular late-night syndication and on television networks around the world. Comedy Central ranks him No. 43 in the "100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time."

He lives with his family in Yellow Springs, Ohio, and continues to perform stand-up.

In the Ghetto

"In the Ghetto" (originally titled "The Vicious Circle") is a song written by Mac Davis and made famous by Elvis Presley, who had a major comeback hit with it in 1969. It was released in 1969 as a 45 rpm single with "Any Day Now" as the flip side.

Song information

It is a narrative of generational poverty: a boy is born to a mother who already has more children than she can feed in the ghetto of Chicago. The boy grows up hungry, steals and fights, purchases a gun and steals a car, attempts to run, but is shot and killed just as his own child is born. The song implies that the newborn will meet the same fate, continuing the cycle of poverty and violence. The feeling of an inescapable circle is created by the structure of the song, with its simple, stark phrasing; by the repetition of the phrase "in the ghetto" as the close of every fourth line; and finally by the repetition of the first verse's "and his mama cries" just before the beginning and as the close of the last verse.

The Ghetto (Donny Hathaway song)

"The Ghetto" is a socially conscious, mostly instrumental Jazz/Latin Jazz flavored anthem, released as the first single off American soul singer Donny Hathaway's debut album, Everything Is Everything, released as a single in 1970 on Atlantic Records.

The song was co-written by Hathaway and Leroy Hutson. The song was a 6 minute and 50 second workout which built upon a cinematic feel with its lengthy instrumental though it did feature vocal ad-libs from Hathaway, who played electric piano on the song, and constant chants of the song, which had a distinguished Afro-Cuban sound with congas.

The song also featured additional backgrounds, dialogue from what sound like men talking on a street corner and a baby crying before Hathaway ended the song with frenetic hand claps.

When originally released in 1970, the song became a modest charted single, peaking at number 87 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 23 on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart.

The song was also featured on Hathaway's revered Live album in which Hathaway and his musicians played a faster version of the song and later featured Hathaway getting the audience into it singing the final chorus.

The Ghetto (Too Short song)

"The Ghetto" is a 1990 single by Oakland rapper Too Short from his album Short Dog's in the House. The song was featured on the fictional radio station Radio Los Santos in the videogame Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and the animated television series Sabrina, the Animated Series. {citation needed} The instrumental was based on the Donny Hathaway song of the same name. The song discusses the struggles of living in the ghetto and the difficulty of getting out of the ghetto to live a more successful life. It also discusses issues such as drug abuse and racial pride. Too Short is mostly known for his raps relating to sex and women, however he did have some songs with a deeper message and serious economic and social commentary, "The Ghetto" being an example of this. The song charted at number one for several weeks, and has since sold over 2,785,000 copies.

On the cassette version of the album Short Dog's in the House, "The Ghetto" is extended to 5:58, which features a segment of one of the Last Poets' speeches "Die Nigga". After Too Short's 4th verse, he says "For all you brothas runnin' around here usin' that "n-word", lets the original rappers kick the last verse", for which then the segment comes in.

(Intro)
Can I talk about the ghetto?
That's where I'm from
Listen up, whoa
Just ridin' through the neighborhood
What I see don't look too good
All my brothers hustlin'
All my sisters strugglin'
Just to make it through another day
Just another day
That's just the way it is
(Just the way it is)
When you're living
(Living in the ghetto)
Trying to make it seems so hard
(Living in the ghetto)
Unemployment, don't even have no jobs
(Living in the ghetto) Whoa
(I grew up in the ghetto)
In the ghetto, ghetto whoa
Still got so many memories (Memories)
Growing up with my family (Oh family)
Still westside 'till I die (Throw it up)
And even though I'm living in a highrise
It's not where you are but it's where you're from
Daddy told me long ago
That's why I'll never forget my days
(Never forget my days, no)
(Living in the ghetto)
People don't got no where to go
(Living in the ghetto)
Pimps and hustlers everybody knows
(Living in the ghetto) Whoa
(I grew up in the ghetto)
In the ghetto, in the ghetto
Play on, play on
My, my, my, my, my, my, my
Somebody tell me why
It has to be this way
Oh why?
Don't give up, no, no
Listen
This is for my queens
Keep your hopes high
Stay down on your knees
Praying every night
There'll be days like these
Mama used to say
Ain't no need to worry
He's gonna make a way
And this is for my kings
Don't forget respect
Gotta keep moving on
Cause it ain't over yet
Keep your head about it
Keep your head about it
'Bout it, 'bout it, 'bout it
While you're living
(Living in the ghetto)
See I'll never forget where I'm from, no, no
(Living in the ghetto)
And how far I've come, see I've come too far
(Living in the ghetto)
In the ghetto, who
(I grew up in the ghetto)
In the ghetto, the ghetto
(Living in the ghetto)
So many kids out in the streets
(Living in the ghetto)
2 o'clock in the morning when they need to be at home asleep
(Living in the ghetto)
