    Eddie's stand up is a lot different than his work as an actor and singer. He was hysterical, but for the time he said some outlandish things. If you are interested, his two specials were Delirious (1983) and Raw (1987). If you watch them, watch Delirious first.

    The fact that Shrek is the 1st thing you think of for Eddie Murphy definitely shows how young you are. You mentioned Boomerang which is a good movie but he has many more like 48 Hours, Trading Places, Coming To America, Beverly Hills Cop 1&2, Harlem Nights, The Golden Child, The Nutty Professor 1&2, and Life. You can also see him do some singing in Dream Girls. He also did two standups in the 80's, the first one was Delirious and the other one was Raw. The other guy that was singing in this video was the legendary Rick James who also has a small role in the movie Life that I mentioned earlier.

    Glad you’re back, Britt. The guy with the blonde hair is Rick James. MC Hammer used a Rick James riff (from Rick’s song, “super freak“) as the hook to his song “U Can’t Touch This.” I didn’t think Eddie’s voice sounded great when this song came out in the mid 80s, but I think this song has held up pretty well.

    Eddie Murphy's big break cam on SNL when he was 19 years old. He was brilliant - created so many characters and had us ROLLING - so clever and irreverent. Tons of great movies - and especially you need to see Dreamgirls. He was nominated for an Oscar for his dramatic musical role. It also stars Jennifer Hudson (who won an Oscar for her role), Jamie Foxx, and Beyonce, among others.

    Eddie started as a standup, then became HUGE as a cast member of SNL. From that he started in movies and recorded music. If you don’t know who Rick James is (“that guy with the wig”) then that’s a rabbit hole you MUST go down!

    He started as a comedian on SNL. Rick James pulled him to the studio to record just for fun. No one expected it to sell, but Rick James singing background helped

    Ok, I love Eddie Murphy as donkey too, and 48 hours is awesome, but you have to see Eddie Murphy in ‘Coming To America’. He plays like 5 characters, and it’s just fun and funny and sweet.

    The guy with the long hair is the late great Rick James, who wrote and produced that song for Eddie Murphy, as well as part of his debut album in 1984. I believe he released about three albums, his last one in 1993, I believe. He was a legitimate singer, and this song, Party All The Time, actually charted on Billboard, in the pop category.

    Two standup specials stand out, Raw and Delirious, the kind of shows that you would wait till your parents were out of the house for the night before throwing into the VCR. When he did the movie Beverly Hills Cop there is a scene where he walks past two men dressed in outfits similar to the ones he wore in those specials.
    No it was Arnold in Kindergarten Cop

    From what I understand, this song came about on a bet. Someone bet Rick James and Eddie Murphy that Eddie couldn't put out a hit song, so Eddie and Rick took them up on the bet and WON! You can tell at the end of the song, they both knew they had nailed it.

  • @xzonia1

    It's really Eddie singing. Lol. Part of the reason for this video of him singing in the studio was to prove it was him singing. :) That's Rick James singing with him (Super Freak singer and his music producer). I think most people "discovered" Eddie Murphy from his days on SNL. He might have done stand up first; not sure. I certainly heard of him on SNL first and watched his stand up shortly thereafter. People couldn't get enough of Eddie! And everything he did was gold. You should really watch him play Mr. Robinson (spoof of Mr. Rogers) and Gumby (do you know who Gumby is???) on SNL. I laughed so hard at those bits as a kid!!! X)
    I think his first stand up special was called Delirious; might as well start at the beginning. It's all good; he is a national treasure. :) P.S. -- Trigger warning - Eddie is a very dirty comic. You are warned.

  • @richardkint6531

    You don't know who Rick James is? The blonde guy who produces this Eddie Murphy smash. Does "Super Freak" ring a bell? Eddie did SNL in the early 80's then moved to movies like Trading Places and Beverly Hills Cop. He also did comedy albums.

  • @davidnorth-martino
    @davidnorth-martino 3 месяца назад

    I would stay up and watch him on SNL. He had some great skits "Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood" and Gumby "I'm Gumby dammit!" come to mind. My first Eddie Murphy movie in the theater was Trading Places (1983). I was 12 years old. I know it's an R rated film but I had permission from my parents and watched it with my friend and his dad. Great reaction! Always loved this song. Start with the stand up comedy movie "Delirious." Check out the Ice Cream Man bit.

    This song is definitely going to be in my head the rest of the night now. 😂 Britt, it’s comedian, actor, and then singer. At the time we were pretty shocked that he could sing. He sings quite a bit in the movie “Dreamgirls” too. My favorite stand up routine of his would probably be this one about ice cream ruclips.net/video/Ft4kEk5CHrE/видео.htmlsi=fbcuydV8DIh8zGyi
