While not providing the laughs of tv's 'The Dave Chappelle Show' (hasn't screened here, but I seen the DVD), the free wheelin', reflective 'Block Party' bursts with positivity and goodwill.
The party in question is a free concert held on a street in Brooklyn, New York. Organised by the very kind Chappelle, he enlists performances from the hugely talented Mos Def, Kanye West, Dead Prez (a stand-out), Jill Scott (also a stand-out), The Roots and The Fugees (who re-united for this).
Intercut with the concert are scenes of Chappelle handing out golden tickets in his hometown of Ohio; musings from the comedian and his musician buddies; meeting the locals; and a particularly cute, impromptu invitation to a high-school marching band (to perform at the concert).
