My Life: Part 1@ my brother Dave's Art Gallery/Tattoo Parlor.....
I would like to take this time to shout out my big brother Dave and his Art Gallery/Tattoo parlor "Big NYC-Black Ink". I am really proud of him, he has come a long way since our days growing up in the Bronx. Last night I had a chance to hang out with him, take some flicks of the shop & reflect on old times. It's always good times hanging w/ my fam. If you folks are ever in the Harlem area please check out the shop, the tat artist are dope and there is also amazing art work for sale. Therefore, you get the best of both worlds. You can leave with a sick tat & a beautiful painting. Prices of the artwork vary, they range from $900 to $1300. Hope you guys get a chance to stop by and check it out, let me know if you want a tat. I took a few flicks so you can get a taste of what it looks like inside, enjoy!

became widely known for his popular sketch comedy television series, Chappelle's Show.
Info: With aspirations to become a comedian, Dave Chappelle moved to New York City and quickly made a name for himself in the New York comedy circuit. At the age of 20, Chappelle made his film debut as "Ahchoo" in Mel Brooks's Robin Hood: Men in Tights.
He made appearances in The Nutty Professor, Con Air, and Martin Lawrence's Blue Streak.However, it wasn't until the debut of his weekly sketch comedy show on Comedy Central called Chappelle's Show in 2003 that Chappelle really began to achieve fame. With his social and political commentary, along with comedy skits parodying many aspects of American culture, the show soon became a critical and commercial success. Chappelle received two Emmy nominations for the show, and the DVD set became the best-selling DVD of a television show to date. In 2005, Chappelle shocked fans and the entertainment industry when he abruptly left during production of season three, mysteriously taking off to South Africa. He later denied any drug or mental problems but stated that his reasons for visiting South Africa were to reflect on his life and career.
Where Is He Now: Since his departure from the show, Chappelle performed impromptu stand-up shows in Los Angeles, went on a tour, and made a surprise appearance on HBO's Def Poetry where he performed two poems. In an interview for Inside the Actors Studio in 2005, he stated that the death of his father in 1998 had an impact on his decision to go to South Africa.Chappelle again appeared on Inside the Actors Studio and in celebration of the show's 200th episode, he humorously interviewed the show's usual host, James Lipton. The episode aired on November 10, 2008. He currently lives with his wife Elaine and two sons on a 65-acre farm just outside Yellow Springs, Ohio.
