Dave Chappelle has gotten plenty of credit in 2020. His Netflix special, 8:46, was one of the most-viewed YouTube videos of the year. Chappelle also hosted Saturday Night Live in addition to seeing his popular comedy show added and then removed from Netflix. Now, TikTok users are looking to give Chappelle credit for another, stranger accomplishment: inventing Carpool Karaoke. The celebrity-starring, vehicle-based show is usually hosted by James Corden as part of The Late Late Show, but now, social media users are claiming the idea was stolen from Chappelle. As evidence, several TikTokers have shared a 2003 clip from Chappelles Show. In the video, Chappelle and rapper Yasiin Bey (known as Mos Def at the time) ride together in a car while Bey raps along to one of his songs.

This aired in 2003 !!! Somebody pay the man, user @bliss_blunts captioned their video of the footage. The clip has made the rounds online for years now and has always sparked a debate about how similar the two concepts really are. As many TikTok users pointed out, Bey is only rapping to his own song, whereas Carpool Karaoke contestants often sing songs by other artists as well. Also, on Carpool Karaoke, Corden usually participates whereas, in 2003, Chappelle seemed content to just watch. This is a stretch, recording in the car is cool but its not an invention, one user wrote. Still, other TikTokers praised the Chappelles Show segment, which they called way ahead of its time. Its super surprising to Gen Z that anything was invented before the first time they saw it, one user wrote.
