I'm wise enough to know, Two people can experience the same situation and end up with two different perspective 🤷
OhhYouu MICHELLE!!! Facts
And we also see people hear what they want to hear too. It’s wild
Right 2 sides to every story
Hi Michelle
@@willamcotton9419 Hey! William!
Vlad TV is punching the air right now because he didn't get this interview 1st 😂
Eddie Murphy has been consistent for 40 years, saying Richard was his inspiration and the greatest. He’s said in interviews and even in his own stand up.
To have someone make u relavant while u not present is the greatest power ever.!!!??
It'll sink in one day!
I hate basic people who have the gift of sight but can't see!
Mr.Rashon Is Telling Black Men how to control YOUR Power From Behind the Scenes. PAY Attention 🛑 THE Puppeteers Behind the Scenes always Control What the public sees. There's always a Aka The Narrative.
It would've done Eddie"no favors" to run Richard down on stage.....god I miss that man😢
That's called PR. It's what the guy in the video described. He said Richard told him that Eddie says one thing interviews and another thing behind closed doors. Eddie made Richard wait 2 hours for a scheduled Harlem Nights movie project appointment- where they do that at?
This man is a great Historian and if u know anything about body language you can see hes just telling it like he saw it
You'll never find an interview of Eddie saying anything bad about Pryor.
I'm going to have to agree with you.
I saw the Netflix show and this guy is not telling the truth. Eddie was not disrespectful
When was it said that Eddie spoke bad on Pryor?
He didn’t say that Eddie ever said anything disrespectful of Richard publicly-especially during an interview. What he meant was that Eddie’s public words of admiration and the way he treated Richard when in his presence were two different things.
@@penny4urthoughts106 Thank you for thinking critically and not emotionally blinded like 90% of the people commenting. It's a shame the conclusions people instantly jump to out of lack evidence to back their own claims.
I saw that episode and that’s not what Eddy said. I believe the Moony brothers.
@Lady x why u think paul mooney left hollywood and richard pryor had really bad grief about the entertainment business and his success , them boys had choices and they was broke back then . Its crazy what hollywood try to make u do for your talent, money, and faith .
@Lady x it's just a roast no big deal. Everybody and they mama done seen it.
I believe the Mooney brothers as well... This dude a joke himself.
dmhibb mooney brothers wouldn't admit shit unless they were abused themselves. it's called protecting your investment, lineage and inheritance.
dmhibb the brothers basically said that it's Richard jr truth to tell and tmz caught up with him and flat out asked jr about the situation and jr did not deny it, believed what you want but don't ignore what's being presented
Eddie put together the greatest black comics and paid proper homage to them by putting them all in one film. To say Eddie didn’t like Pryor is like saying fire ain’t hot. FOH
When did he say Eddie didn't like Pryor?

@@ignanthour167 do you mean "replay"?
That's crazy to me that I'm sitting here hearing this right now because Pryor's influence on Murphy's work is CRYSTAL clear. Down to the mannerisms.
Exactly. Rashon is right. You can just see these things. It's like early Johnny Carson and Jack Benny. The influence was clear.
Eddies biggest movies were all made by some really creepy directors and producers In Hollywood ones people have accused of things, and eddies manager was the same exec that touched Terry Crews, I don’t trust Eddie.
This dude got a problem with everybody 😂😂

@@hashhussain8550 katt is definitely a funny dude, but he's still kinda 2nd tier to me. Still a great comic, very underrated.
@@JamesJohnson52990 indeed very underated
Eddie has NEVER said he wasn’t doing Richard. Eddie stated that since he was 15 he imitated and emulated him.
The guy really trying to sell his book!
Thank GOD! he's still alive to speak the truth!
As he should...its his perspective he's selling
And we all want to know this stuff. So fuck it
Bingo
Still not buying that shit
There's a difference between imitation and paying homage.
Richard Pryor & Eddie Murphy had great respect for each other. In a interview on The Tonight Show Richard said he went to see Eddie Murphy in "Trading Places" he said Eddie was very funny and that he's gonna kill him, in jest of course, but he recognized this young guy was different (13:45) ua-cam.com/video/wJ1QzGesHcU/v-deo.html - HERE IS AN ARTICLE RICHARD PRYOR AND EDDIE MURPHY DID FOR "PEOPLE MAGAZINE" TOGETHER JULY 11, 1983 WHERE THEY HANGOUT WITH EACHOHTER AND PRIASE EACHOTHER people.com/archive/cover-story-pryor-and-murphy-vol-20-no-2/
It was Seinfeld paying homage, not Eddie.
Yeah, and Eddie imitated Richard. Richard imitated Cosby.
@@KtotheG and Richard admitted this on The Tonight Show
@@EddieisKrueger I'm a fan of both comedians. I've studied and enjoyed all of their work. I have a CD copy of Pryor's first live stand-up. He was nearly indistinguishable from Bill Cosby.
I remember seeing an interview Barbara Walters did with Richard Pryor🙏🏾🙏🏾 years ago and she asked him how does he feel about people saying Eddie Murphy is the future of comedy and the best comedian out and Richard said he didn't like it because he felt he was still the best. I think Richard Pryor had respect for Eddie but deep down he was kinda tight because Eddie was younger and had the game on smash....Plus Eddie became a super mega star at a young age and surpassed Richard as far as fame. But both comedians are legends and need to be respected for their genius!
true dat. it's also a fact that while pryor was/is one of the best, if not the best, eddie has made more money and has been wise with his wealth. dude does not drink or do drugs. i'm pretty sure some people feel a way about that. but you cannot blame eddie for other people's failings. celebrity, superstars or not.

Yes Richard jus was old skool n not no stepping fetch period
Richard's people would give Him a note saying Eddie Murphy is here At the comedy store. It's not a lie
He obviously heard what he wanted to heard from Eddie... Eddie didn't come off cocky or arrogant... he said he HEARD it... HE LOVED RICHARD! HE PUT HIM IN HARLEM NIGHTS! This guy here... SMH
Probably a whole bunch of stuff backdoor. He touched on some of it towards the end of the interview
I'm kind of getting tired of this guy ... Everyone wants the 💰
I came here to make this comment.
I guess he didn’t see the part in “Raw” where Eddie said he started his work emulating Richard with “Shit jokes” 🤔🤔🤔
Shit that’s one of Eddie’s biggest stand ups. He couldn’t had missed it. He just omit that information
You READ MY MIND..I thought that was in Delirious though.... My husband never seen them watched both the other day
This comment needs to be highlighted!!!!!
You ever take a shit a and it break off in yo ass
Just because you copy someone’s style don’t mean you fk with them like that. Eddie should’ve paid homage to Richard instead of trying to always one up him.
This dude is like a living history book .. so many stories 🙌🏾 God Bless the OG
Richard was one of the greats. But, I'll be damned if Eddie isn't a great as well. I'm sure Eddie would say the same thing if Richard was alive.
True story Eddie don't give a shit

I love Eddie Murphy but he is not in the same league when it comes to comedic genius. I am Gumby dammit is not the greatest.
@@Troyboy2121 you got a lot more footage to watch, if Gumby is all you remember.
Signed; every comedian, everywhere
@@dwayneturner9395So you are telling me with a straight face that Eddie Murphy's body of work compares to Richard Pryor's body of work from a comedic standpoint? Eddie definitely produced better movies but when it comes to pure standup comedy Eddie is not even in the same building as Richard. Give me a break..
This guy is confused. Eddie said on the show, that "someone else told him (Eddie), that Richard was behaving that way." Eddie never witnessed it himself. Eddie also said, he (Eddie) wasn't told this information until waaaaaaay after. On the show, Eddie also said how Richard would know he's inside performing. Did this guy watch the show (comedian in cars), and hear his own version of what was spoken. This guy is too old.
You know the experiment when someone says something, then it gets passed on person by person, and then what was originally said has completely changed...this is a perfect example.
Then this nigga goes on to say Eddie didn't like him (Richard) or disrespect Richard, I wasn't there, but that has to be bullshit. It's not logical for someone (Eddie) to have a person (Richard) as their idol (Richard)and then disrespect him/her (Richard).
Then he goes on to speak for Eddie, as if he knows what Eddie was thinking or wanting at that time. He (this old guy) said that Eddie didn't know Richard, only the stage Richard, but yet he (this old mf) is speaking on Eddie, like he knows Eddie, and Eddie thoughts and feelings.
Harlem Nights:
Director-Eddie Murphy
Writer-Eddie Murphy
Executive producer (money person)-Eddie Murphy
Main actor-Eddie Murphy...
If Eddie wanted to be in a scene, he (Eddie) could and would have put himself in the scene, with the so-called fun. If Eddie didn't like Richard, then why would Eddie put Richard in a movie with him.
This old muthafuckin nigga is delusional. Now I don't believe anything he have said in past interviews. He is living in his own reality.
Point is why mention it!
Exactly he took it outta context
This, plus the Paul Mooney shit. This dude is really tryna sell this dam book
Thank u sir
U are right.
I guess Eddie Liked him enough to pay for Richard's funeral..
Ram Martin I thought it was Redd Foxx funeral he paid for?
Ram Martin it was Redd Foxx funeral. The IRS had taken everything. They didn’t have enough to bury him. Foxx was on the show with Della Reese that Eddie Murphy had written for him.

This is soo
sad🤦🤦😕☹️
As Malcolm said ' if you have any problems with one other handle it behind closed doors.!
No! Your lying sir! In the interview with Seinfeld, Eddie said later on in life he found out from other people that told him Richard was shook when he Eddie Murphy was around, get your story straight.

This man, Rashon, Frantz, just keeps on lying and lying. When will these lies STOP?
@FFB332mob Williams I was thinking the same thing, bro.
@Gee Gnome Project Eddie Murphy never boasted about Richard pryor being shook, he never even knew about that until waaaaaay after Richard died, this dude is talking like Eddie was shittin on Richard in his face while alive and well, Eddie loved and respected Richard til his death, if he didn't? Richard would've never done Harlem nights, so that's what im talkin about.
Thanks.

@@knggullah8079 yeah he's not the greatest stand up ever but it's hard to find a better comedian that's an actor I think he is probably one of the best actors out there he should have gotten an Oscar for his work in Nutty Professor.

Richard said in his book that he was worried about Eddie because Hollywood would only have one big black artist at a time. He thought Eddie had next.
Hold up Paul Mooney dam near dead and u slandering his name why now
MR.UNIVERSISTYLE GROWNMANMUSIC it's not slander if a live man doesn't defends himself. He's defending his friend Richard Pryor.
Friend, my azz! He nearly allowed Richard to kill himself, and he was supposed to be a BODYGUARD and TRAINER, helping Richard to become healthy, after his heart attack! Yet, he's sitting with him, drinking high octane rum with him, and allowing him to freebase! He's a HANDLER! ..and a friend would not just blurt out that another man phucked Richards son, when Richards son, who is still alive, gave him NO PERMISSION to say this!

Man. Eddie loved Richard. He even sat down with Seinfeld and said so.
I've seen harlem nights so many times and Love it. Funnything is if you'd asked me who the star of the film was, I'd have said Richard Pryor, not Eddie.
I agree so much. Him and Della Reese and Redd Foxx were the best characters in the movie.
That's right! I love brother Murphy, but Redd, Richard and Della made that movie the gem it is!! Pryor was definitely the glue in that movie. "Sweet smooth muthafuka".
Richard is a Legend, a trail breaker, original. Eddie & all those coming after would not be here without Richard.
get it straight, Eddie had HUGE respect for Richard Pryor. Always this guy is full of shit. And Eddie was responsible for getting Red and Della in that movie, and wrote/produced THE ROYAL FAMILY with Redd and Della because he loved them...
Period only reason he was directing because they not finna gt fukkd in thee ass das jus period
Honestly, why is it necessary to divulge details of these people lives. At the end of the day what's the point of it all. Plus I don't think Murphy was disrespectful in the interview with Seinfeld. He just gave it from his perspective. One thing I've learned is that comedians are probably the most sensitive and insecure of any entertainment medium. Which is quite ironic when your success is predicated on your ability to be self deprecated at the expense of others amusement.
Im a comic. And yes we may be the most sensitive. But its almost a pre-requisite to be a stand up. We take that pain and let it out on stage and hope we get acceptance and acknowledgement on stage for our talents that we dont get in regular life
Why?

Ppl who are true stand-up comedy fans understand & appreciate this. 💯👍🏼✌ I agree with what Deon Cole said about the comedy scene being different than it used to be. Luenell spoke on it some too. Different ballgame. U have to compete against memes & keep the attention of ppl with short ass attention spans & itchy 'phone fingers.'
@@OmarScruggs I can respect that. However I hate that it divide the fraternity of comedians. I believe Hollywood exploits y'all in the name of competition and causes toxic relationships between fellow comics.
Honestly we are ALL here out of curiousity about certain details of celebrities lives that have not been revealed, definitely the great Richard Pryor. That's why we clicked and listen and why Rashon Khan is here selling true and exaggerated tales because we are interested.
I believe there was competition, respect & envy by both Murphy and Pryor in their observation of each other. Murphy of course idolized Pryor and if you don't at least take notes from his stand-up and film roles, you are not learning from the best in business. Pryor very likely enjoyed Murphy's rise in the early 80's but it happening so fast on a large scale may have bothered Pryor considering how long & hard it took him especially for major starring roles Murphy got (48 Hours, Trading Places, Beverly Hills Cop, etc.). The Murphy rise also coincided with Pryor's deep dive into substance abuse from setting himself on fire and Hollywood picking their new 'favroite negro' in Eddie.
Okay, I'm convinced this old dusty crusty dude is lying about everything.
I agree. I believed him in the first few videos but he's being a gossiping porch lady now. If he's security he's not going to know every single thing that goes on!!

For me, Richard is the Jordan of stand up! Eddie made great movies, but Richard was a far better stand up comedian!
I'm just gonna say, Eddie's stand up is pretty solid. Maybe it's just me...(wtf?)
Dwayne Louis Yeah it was!
I think it's the American Idol influence of ranking things and scrutinizing that got infused into us when we should just be laughing and having a good time with genius levels of comedy. With that said there could not have been an Eddie without a Richard, probably even a Bill. For me, Eddie is the one I've wanted back on the stage since I was a kid, I just remember trying to catch my breath from laughing as a kid, I still can go back to his specials and come away with a big smile.
Looper Loop I remember as a kid staying up to watch Saturday Night Live when Eddie was on there! Saturday Night Live has never ever replaced Eddie with anyone ever funnier!
Better..not far
I love to listen to the elder generation. They have stories for days. The level of respect and honor code was always amazing.
I have never at any point thought that Eddie Murphy was imitating Richard Pryor AT ALL. They were two black comics, but they def had their own styles.
I must admit, I was taken aback by Eddie’s comment when I watched that episode of CICGC. I wondered why he never said this to anybody before and now he’s saying it to Jerry. I felt that if that were true, Charlie Murphy would have been said something about it! I still like Eddie, always will, but I too felt that was a bs move! If that was true, why say it now? And why say it there?
He's saying it now cause he was asked about in an extremely rare interview, now if Eddie Murphy was same fallen off B rated star promoting some book? or documentary? Which not the case, Then i would be like ok so why now? Cause yor promoting shit.
James Warren Exactly what did he say that had you “taken aback” Eddie said he never had any issues with RP and he idolized him. He said he never heard RP speak bad about him and they always got along and he still idolizes him. He only heard RP spoke negatively about EM after he died. And it was from someone else’s interview. Only after Sinefeld asked him the question.
Jerry and him go way back. They were having an honest conversations between two peers that came up together from the very bottom to the very top.. That is what was there, and it was not disrespectful.
This mans Beard bothers me

@@emancipatedtalent Well, Eddie Murphy is an amazing comic and talented actor. But one of my big issues with him is he portrays dark-skinned women in his films.

Nor is he the first man to philander or deny the paternity of one or more of his kids. But it still doesn't make it right.

It appears that this man is selling his delusions. I’m not convinced. I hope that CH keeps posting him though. He’s undermining his own credibility.
HOLLYWOOD ALREADY DONE PAY HIM U BETTER BELEIVE THAT !!!
I feel you but if Richard was so tough to have found Eddie to check him about what he SAID why didn’t he find PAUL Mooney and deal with him about what you said he DID to Richards son ? Ijs. Everybody’s a tough guy with words !!
He said rich caught on fire b4 he could handle Mooney
@@wiltchamb8789 what about after the fire? why didn't this dude do something since he knew rich put it out there like that? nevermind the $, just whoop Mooney's behind for doing that mess. We dont play like that where im from bruh nor did we play like that back in the day. He didn't catch on fire the same day he found out about it. what was he waiting for to confront mooney? mess with mine , I will find you the same day !!!
Burned, or not, he would not have been friends with Paul, especially, if he were to the point of paying someone a million to kill him ..yet, he ends up burglary buddies with him in the film Bustin Loose, he works with him on a KIDS show, "Pryor's Place" in 84, and they're friends, into the 90s ...stop trying to do damage control, Paul haters ..smh
Every comedian was shook of Eddie in the 80s....Eddie literally said his early acts and how he learned was imitating Pryor ...
Richard wasn't every comedian
Richard said that he was insecure of Eddie blowing up in his interview with Barbara Walters. He said he "hates it" when Eddie is mentioned as the biggest comedian. I doubt Eddie was making shit up about the dude who's his biggest influence
Dude went from being a bodyguard to Wendy Williams.
Straight messy. 😂
WOW great review!
It seems when great artists pass their heyday, they assume the new generation of greats don't like them if they don't give them a role or kiss their arse 24/7.
The best way to pay homage to someone is to prolong their art. Eddie recently did it for Rudy Ray Moore by making Dolomite and his family still threw a hissy fit. He did it for Pryor whenever he got on a stage. Give it 30 years and someone from Eddie's entourage will say Eddie felt disrespected by Kevin Hart.
Everyone is complaining about his interview but keep showing up to see what he's said
You damn right. Just everyone hasn't caught on yet.
U HAVE TO KNOW WHATS RIGHT FROM WRONG IN LIFE .
I was THINKING THE SAME THING!
The irony that he says the line about Richard being dead so why the need to 'disrespect' 🙄
it Wasn’t “shook”, it Was more Intimidation of His career.
So he acknowledges that eddies 2 biggest idols are elvis and Pryor, then tries to convince us that eddie kept them waiting purposely for an hour an half on purpose yea that makes sense. Because he just didnt care that his idol is there? He was probably having a nervous attack! And this guy must have been the muscle because even eddie especially very young eddie is not going to interupt a conversation between Foxx and Pryor backstage on a legendary set like that! You'd have to be Robin Harris George carlin Bernie Mac or Sam kinison to even think about adding to that level of humor eddie was showing respect he was a kid and he did believe and them that movie was not a favor to anyone they all knew it was special so what it makes sense that Eddie and Pryor tell 2 different stories they were brilliant minds maybe theh didnt get along it's ok they dam sure worked together and respected each other also Eddie kept Redd Foxx on t.v with Della Reese until he died! and paid for his funeral as well, not this guy
Sounds like dude really don't like Eddie vs all the other crap he said.
Eddie got some life style issues that main man might not like !
Thank you, Sir, for clarification and for sharing.😌🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼
I'm reminded of a time in the mid 80s, Richard Pryor as an icon. Someone who was the antithesis of Cosby, but a legend. But Eddie was Rock Star status. When he entered in an establishment, it was he and about 20 to 25 other people. I saw it with my own eyes at a Luther Vandross concert at "The Night I Fell in Love" concert at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. It was something like out of a movie. Jesse Johnson was opening for Luther, no one paid attention. During intermission someone screamed out "Eddie!!" and the crowd went Mad!!. He entered the mezzanine with a trail of people, and a spot light followed him. I'll never forget it, but it takes nothing away from Pryor's legacy.
It's no hidden fact that Eddie Murphy thinks he's better than Richard Pryor 😪
So do I. Especially when it comes to movies.. not even close when comparing film careers. But Richard Pryor in the Mack and lady Sings the Blues was my shit.
As much as Kobe wanted to be, he was never better than Jordan
@@JayBelafonte well put brother
Naw, I don’t believe this shit for one second. Eddie Murphy had major love for Richard Pryor being a comic god but I can see Richard Pryor feeling some type of way about the next big comic that was taking over at that time Eddie Murphy.
Is the book out???
Okay will they put out the entire interview ... 😩😩 GEEZE
Brother always comes across as real, relaxed and honest.
Brother is always dishing the dirt! He's perfect for the internet age. Come with the podcast.😆
This is interesting....🤔
Most con men are. But I wasn’t there so who knows
High on some shit.. Beady eyes darting all over the place moving a constant wedge out of his ass crack can’t sit still.... he should be in some parking lot shooting dice not here.. sick of this legacy dragging shit for clout
@@itsok215 😂😂
I don't believe that. Eddie always seemed to show Richard respect
I saw the big tribute party Eddie Murphy hosted for Pryor. Everybody was there, Stevie Wonder to James Brown. The love was real.
He was outline for stay dat keep to self the man was big up the king
thats not a lie richard pryor said it himself you can find it in a interview pryor said felt threatened by eddie and pryors wife (at the time) would try to console him be saying "you been number 1 for a long time, its time to let someone else be"
Another old fool trying to capitalize on eddie’s fame.ya’ll going about it the wrong way.we all have to look up to someone at some point .do we have to follow them to their graves?move on brother
Remember he wants u to buy his book..
Eddie did not say that. If you watch the interview Eddie spoke on the industry creating a feeling of one black man on top at a time. Eddie spoke on the industry creating an element of competition and maybe that is what made Richard not as welcoming!
Did he just say Cosby was dead aswell 🤣
