20 years ago today, davechappelle threw one of the best block parties ever! 🙌🏽
On September 18, 2004, Dave invited some of his favorite artists—including
#TheRoots,
#ErykahBadu,
#JillScott,
#KanyeWest,
#Common,
#TheFugees,
#DeadPrez,
#YasiinBey fka
#MosDef, &
#TalibKweli—down to Brooklyn to perform and opened the free invite to the neighborhood. Even a young J. Cole was in the crowd!
Luckily, Dave Chappelle’s Block Party was also released as a film the following year for people who weren’t lucky enough to be there. And for those who just want to relive the moment again and again. The documentary not only showed the full concert but the weeks and preparation leading up to the block party.
This is a moment in time we’ll never get enough of.
