    ----------
    In this clip, Michael Jai White discussed his friendship with Rick James and praised the late Buffalo native for how talented he was. Michael even revealed to Vlad that Rick James appeared in 'Life' with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. Michael said Rick was such a good actor no one even noticed it was him.
    Michael Jai White also talked about Rick James' struggle with substance abuse and why he believes the attention Rick received as a result of the Chappelle Show ultimately killed him.

    Y’all do realize that Michael Jai White just unintentionally gave Vlad a new narrative to ask the next line of guests. “What do you think of Michael Jae White, sayin’ that Dave Chapelle killed Rick James”?

      When I first saw the movie life I said damn, Spanky Johnson looks just like Rick James. I had no idea that was actually him. Until I heard Charlie Murphy say it was Rick James. Like Michael Jai White said , Rick James was talented. Because he seemed like a seasoned actor, although I had never seen him in any other movie before.

A brother all before and in front of being a performer. He died in his addiction and that causes so much unnecessary heartache, heartbreak and anger for his family.
