Good one. I really can't think of just 4. George Carlin would have to be on mine.

I was trying to stay away from "active" comedians, but Chappelle would be on there for sure along with Burr and then it would be hard to leave Rock. I also like Redd Foxx. Of course he isn't "active", but these Mt Rushmore list are always tough.
Two I would add to my "just missed it" list is Sam Kinison and Bernie Mac.

Lenny Bruce’s bit about Lyndon Johnson’s handlers trying to teach him how not to say the
“N” word is priceless
Pryor Murphy and Foxx killed me. Carlin also.

Brian Regan is hugely underrated. I guess because he keeps it clean, but I was watching him with my son when he was 9 or so and he had us both howling and I remember thinking this kid is going to be OK.
