The sketch mocked Diddy’s reality show, which was a mix of The Real World and Punk’d (because the participants all got punked into thinking they’d actually make a name for themselves after). But Dili was definitely one of the standout participants, especially since he was always on the verge of tears.

Dili, who is still trying to make a name for himself, finally got to meet Chappelle over the weekend, and of course it went exactly as you’d expect.

During their meeting, Dylan and Dave quoted some of the sketch’s iconic lines, and Chappelle did a little promo for Dylan’s upcoming album. It’s great to see Dylan still attempting to spit hot fire after all these years.
