David Chappelle Show

Dave Chappelle (@DaveChappelle) performed standup comedy last night, June 12th, 2012 in Memphis TN, at the famous Orpheum Theatre. After being on hiatus from his very popular Comedy Central show, The Chappelle Show, and after a long media showdown of rumors, he decided to hit the scene with a last minute stand-up performance, which quickly turned into a sold-out show. Funnyman Prescott, DJ for Memphis’ K97, opened the show with a comedic performance fit for Memphis natives and Devin Steele, also a Memphis DJ with K97, set the tone playing everything from Beastie Boys to Tupac to keep the crowd hype.

“Play me some pimpin’ mayne.”

“Now they was thinking the Dirty South was like….hee haw hee haw/ is you worth over a hundred mill?/….we are we are!”

These were the words that came from a man that went for the ghetty green as a youngster where he was easily labeled a murderer and robber. From all of his extra-curricular activities in the streets, he built bonafide credibility and became known as “Mista Don’t Play” who had everything working because he was recognized as one who laid the smack down. Through revealing too much muscle for the smack he became a crook by the book and had his own fed story. After being released from hard time, he then returned to being a walking bank roll. Now after all of his life’s experiences he knows how the real recognize the real. This man is Patrick Stephen Houston better known as Project Pat and brother of Three Six Mafia member Juicy J.

It has been said that we are all a product of our environment. On a brutal hot summer day on the cross section of Watkins and Brown in North Memphis, young Mario Mims aka Lil’ Yo wakes up from an uncomfortable sleep inundated by the harsh reality of his poverty stricken environment and hopeless disposition. Instantly he thinks of going into the kitchen to see what there was cooked to eat but remembers that his Mom has not been home for weeks due to hiding from the repo man. Lil’ Yo then retrieves some food stamps from the top dresser, in his room, along with the hefty eightball of crack cocaine that holds to be his only investment of making any money during the endless days of hard times that he and his family were enduring.
