Failed Dave Chappelle Attacker Previously Wrote Song About The Comedian
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Supplied by WENN.com / WENN The story behind the recent attack on Dave Chappelle continues to get weirder. The culprit previously wrote a song about the comedian and the bars were mired in struggle. As per Raw Story the recent attempt to harm the comic is much more layered than anyone originally thought. On Wednesday, May 4 TMZ reported that Isaiah Lee had penned a song referencing Chappelle. As expected the track falls just as short as when he tried to rush the stage at the Hollywood Bowl. Titled “Dave Chappell”, yes you read that correctly, the 2020 song takes aim at the Half Baked star but the effort is largely underwhelming with lyrics like “laugh at you n***ers a joke” repeated over and over. Additionally, NONAME_TRAPPER (his stage name), s...

Dave Chappelle Attacker Charged with Four Misdemeanors, Won’t Face Felony Charges [UPDATED]
The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office has declined to press felony charges against the man who attacked Dave Chappelle on stage at the Hollywood Bowl on Tuesday night. “After reviewing the evidence, prosecutors determined that while criminal conduct occurred, the evidence as presented did not constitute felony conduct,” a spokesperson for the department said in a statement provided to The Hollywood Reporter. “The District Attorney’s Office does not prosecute misdemeanor crimes within the city of Los Angeles.” Police say the man, 23-year-old Isaiah Lee, had a replica gun with a real knife inside.
