Message from renowned comedian Faizon to Dave

Faizan Love is a famous American actor and comedian. When questioned about Dave to Faizan, he observes that Dave is prejudiced and performs white people laugh more than black people. He spoke,

“White people built Dave. For a fact, he’s never made n***as laugh. The first season [of Dave Chappelle’s Show] was wack. It wasn’t until the second season once Charlie Murphy started writing. That’s when you started seeing the Rick James and all the other fly stuff.”

Dave’s drug addiction

When Dave approaching the height of his profession, his father passed away. He then chose to take a pause from his career due to not trading completely with the death of his father in the year 2005. He then thought to do extend his career in South Africa to be closer to his heritage.

But preferably, this made him closer to drugs and become a drug addict. He was then relying on medication. But some specialists also claimed that they were just rumors.
