Thank you for a record breaking rookie year. Season 2 mode activated
Happy birthday to the coolest, most interesting, socially aware, weirdest, sickest (in a good way mostly), most talented gal I know. @chloebennet you made it to 28 and I’m very proud of the woman you are!!! Thanks for always being there for me and for constantly enlightening me, my life wouldn’t be the same without you. I love you Oechlay
7 years ago today, I put out my first song and video. Ironically, also today, I finally just finished and handed in the season finale of one of the biggest shows on television.
Thank you everybody for believing and seeing something in me. You changed my life and gave me my purpose, and I will never take it for granted.
Next week, prepare to be mind blown. The final act. Episode 10. My opus.
Love,
Dave
Me putting the finishing touches on my first season of television. DAVE finale streaming now on Hulu.
This picture was captured of me during the first shoot day of season one. If I look overwhelmed, it’s because I was.
I had never written a script before. I actually downloaded the screenwriting software for the first time to write this season. I had never acted before. Never executive produced before. Never done anything beyond make rap songs and videos.
But a lot of people believed in me. Many of you did from the start of my career. I could tell that it wasn’t just about my music, you guys actually liked and believed in ME. As a person.
Then, I was lucky enough to have Fx believe in me too. And then an incredible group of writers, a cast and crew…who came to work every day on a show created by a guy who’s never even worked in the medium before, yet was demanding it be treated and approached like it was the most important work of their careers. And somehow, they all cared about it just as much as I did. They believed it was going to be special. I don’t know why, but they did.
Let me be a prime example when I say that things are totally possible in life. I had no legitimate reason to believe I could be a successful rapper. But I believed, and then I became that. I had no real reason to believe I could make a great tv show without any experience. But I believed, and I believe we achieved that.
The thing that was always driving me, and still is to this day: “what if I’m right…” I couldn’t afford to never know that answer. So I tried my hardest to find out…And I am so relieved that I did. Because I was fuckin right!!!! What outlandish things to believe! I did it!!!! No matter what you’re interested in pursuing, do yourself a favor and find out if you are right too. And even if you aren’t, you’ll never blame yourself for being wrong. Because you tried your best and that’s all you can do. And that’s peace of mind as far as I can tell.
What the hell am I even blabbering about? I’m honestly so privileged that this post is probably annoying and somehow problematic in a way that’s beyond my comprehension. But go watch the finale. I feel like my whole career has been building to it, not just the season.
And I gave it my all.
Love,
Dave
Jail????
Episode 9 on Hulu now. What a performance by @taylormisiak this woman is amazing! I still remember when she first auditioned for pillow talking. And when I FaceTimed her to tell her she was gonna be Ally, you should’ve seen the joy on her face! And the relief. Cuz she knew she had it in her, just needed the chance. And I’m so honored to be a part of showing the world what a gem she is.
Thank goodness I met you Aylortay! Thank you for pouring your heart and soul into this show and this role. You knew what my expectations were and you’ve blown them out of the water. Stream episode 9 now! Get caught up. Before it’s too late.

One year ago I put out Earth. Today, on Earth day, I am so proud and excited to announce that we’ve raised $815,000 that will all go to saving this planet.
I’m humbled that we are able to grant these funds to such deserving organizations and grateful to all the artists on this song who made it possible. And of course, I’m grateful to every Earthling out there for listening and spreading the word. Unfortunately, the fight to save this planet is far from over, and we’ll need to do much more to turn this thing around before it’s too late.
Despite how frightening the world feels right now with the COVID-19 pandemic, it has shown me something: we can modify our day-to-day behavior to adapt to a crisis when it’s right in front of us. Even if you don’t feel the climate crisis at every moment, it is truly right in front of us. And all across the world, humanity has banded together to combat the spread of COVID-19, putting convenience aside for the greater good. If we keep that same energy and apply it towards the environment, we can probably save the Earth. We should definitely do that. I love you all. Stay safe.
