People may recall that on the "Chappelle's Show" the comedian impersonated Prince in 2004.
After Chappelle walked away from a $50 million contract with the "Chappelle's Show" to flee to Africa, it was unknown whether the funny guy would make it back to the spotlight.
"I want to make sure I'm dancing and not shuffling," said Chappelle, explaining his departure during a past interview with Time magazine.
However, Prince using the comedian as artwork for his new single may hint toward the possibility of a comeback.
In fact, the New York Times reported that Chappelle is apart of the Oddball Comedy and Curiosity Festival, a new 15 city tour sponsored by Funny or Die website that started in Austin, Texas, on Friday. In addition, he may be joining fellow comedian Chris Rock on his stand-up tour.
