Comedian Dave Chappelle often talks about Iceberg Slim during his stand-up routines. According to Chapelle, Iceberg Slim got his name by keeping ice-cold in a shoot-out where he stayed at the bar drinking his drink even though a bullet pierced his hat, a story told at the end of chapter 13 in Slim’s Pimp. On his 2006-07 summer tour, Chappelle told a tale of Iceberg Slim, learning of him from Maya Angelou, and relates it to why he left $50 million at Comedy Central and secretly went to South Africa.
