Really gone off topic from Eddie Murphey to biting Richard, I agree it should be acknowledged otherwise it is bitten, Eddie Griffin's impression if Richard Pryor being the president of America was funny... wasnt Richard inspired by the great 'Sammy Davis' tho... I can see it a lil in him.. two great men there... another guy I miss doing stand up is Chris Tucker... he sold himself to Hollywood, he had mad potential to be legendary... Dave Chappelle is the best comedian we have nowadays... I think, but even he's doing films and becoming slow on the stand up scene...
Funn DementaLL,
I don't think we have gone off topic at all-it's called a conversation-Murph and stealing go together-oops and hello!!!! EG doing RP as pres was ok-not great---i thought mediocre and i told him...but eddie always gives richard props--always-and lots of love and threw him a mad b'day party not too long ago---more than i can say about others who have so blatantly ripped rp off!!!! Oh-but are we off topic again!!!
That Old Hippie Chick,
Well, tht's it-they are conning---and one good thing is this site where these thieves are being called out on their shit....and I will say it again---they ones who steal and don't credit were banking on the fact that RP is not on the scene...but he is-his work is and I will yell, kick, holler and scream on his behalf because I hate all the lies...and the bullshit artists who perpetuate them...so let em put that in their bongs and smoke it!! The more I get RP out there again in his work and new content is the way we are going about it....
They all say they love RIchard...and then they rip him off!!
P>S> inspired is not quite the same as RIPPING OFF- i really don't get the sammy d reference-speak to eddie g about sammy -i'm done...
That Old Hippie Chick, or you could just go to their shows and heckle them. something along the lines of "nice premis and set up fuckshit, did you pay Mr P a royality"
That Old Hippie Chick, I'm still a newby, I know tapan, I love him to, his suicide joke is one of my all time favs. I usually go to laughs unlimmited on wedsdays though I did peperbelly's last wed. I get most of my stage time though at a place called the ocean lounge. I've only been doing it three or four months but have been allowed to do as much as 25 mins on stage there and some Mc work. The owner gives me some sundays to run shows, I'm running one next sunday. Just a open mic.
That Old Hippie Chick, I think you'd like it if you tried sac, from what I've heard other comics like it cause there is a more sence of comradre and less cuthroat then other places
