Rock’s sharp yet hilarious take on cancel culture and the entertainment industry is as biting as ever.
He starts off by discussing the "slap" of cancel culture, comparing it to the way a parent would discipline a child.
He then talks about how the entertainment industry has become so obsessed with being politically correct that it’s stifling creativity and making it hard for comedians and entertainers to express themselves the way they used to.
He also talks about how people can be "cancelled" for simply making a mistake, and how that kind of punishment is not always deserved.
It's been almost a year since the infamous Oscars slap Rock received from an enraged Will Smith.
And now the 'Everybody Hates Chris' star is ready to address it.
