 Brilliant!, 2008-02-19
I love this movie/concert production by the always brilliant and funny Dave Chappelle! The music is amazing, the commentaries and insightful, and Dave's jokes are appropriate (it's not a comedy or stand-up, he's just being himself). As a child of the 70s, I can appreciate this movie on so many levels. First of all, it is reminiscient of the movie concerts of the past (before You Tube, etc.). Secondly, the music and the choice of musicians is brilliant. However you want to categorize the artists (Hip Hop, Neo Soul, etc), they are the voice of now and conscious artists who commit not only to their artistry but also to being activist and supporters of the community. Thirdly, you get to see that Dave Chappelle is multifaceted and truly concerned with providing people with food for thought (not just jokes). Not that this matters but (like Talib Kweli) he is the son of collge professors. That said, he was, I'm sure, raised to be a "thinker" and a "doer." This concert was about him getting together with like-minded artists (Jill Scott, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Erykah Badu, The Roots, Kayne West, Common, Dead Prez, and appearances by the legendary Big Daddy Kane, John Legend, the HBCU band of Central State, etc.) and getting together with us, the viewer. If you really listened to the message then you should have walked away from the experience feeling inspired.
PS check out Erykah Badu's new CD coming out next week. New AmErykah, Pt. One: 4th World War
