“You can't get unfamous. You can get infamous but you can't get unfamous.”
— Dave Chappelle

Simplified Meaning:
Once you become famous, people know who you are, and you can't change that. Even if you decide to stop your work or stay out of the public eye, they’ll still remember you. Becoming infamous means being known for something negative, and that can happen if you do something bad. For example, a famous actor might decide to retire, but fans will always recognize them. On the other hand, if the same actor does something scandalous, they might become infamous, and that negative reputation will stick with them. This advice suggests that you should be careful with your actions because your fame, whether good or bad, follows you.
