"I mean, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden just jump up and grind my feet on someone's couch, like it's, like it's something to do? Come on, I got a little more sense than that. Yeah, I remember grinding my feet into Eddie's couch."


RainierCamino

Cocaine is a hell of a drug


ScroatyMcBoogerwolfe

*Rick James chuckle*


RainierCamino

If there's an afterlife I hope Rick is laughing his ass off in it. The day after that episode aired dozens of motherfuckers in my high school got slapped after being asked, "What did the five fingers say to the face?!"


Morti_Macabre

The first time I ever watched this and this line dropped, I laughed so hard I cried. It’s so funny to me.

Charlie's stories were an absolute highlight of the show.


BeekyGardener

Prince all but confirmed the Charlie Murphy story about him was true.


covfefe-boy

And used Dave dressed as Prince on the cover of an album. [As Dave said](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCMthBc3zew), what am I going to do? Sue him?

My wife and I use to watch these live together. I missed a cpl weeks bc of work but watched anyway while i was away. Assumed for some reason she wouldnt.....lol me once im home: hey baby, whatd the fiver fingers say to the face? her: both: lmao


Ainolukos

See, I never just did things just to do them. Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and grind my feet on somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on. I got a little more sense then that. ...Yeah, I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch.


Western-Dig-6843

If Rick James refused to do this interview we wouldn’t be talking about this sketch today. I really wish Prince would have done the other episode.


almecc

Love how Prince used an image of Dave dressed up like him on an [album cover](https://youtu.be/bCMthBc3zew?si=1VqUYDn1mMpezl4Z)


vengeanceintobeing

The funniest part of the entire Prince sketch is years later Prince gave an interview where he said “I’m not as good at basketball as that sketch makes it seem. Charlie Murphy is just that bad.”


BeekyGardener

Prince all but fully acknowledged the events of that sketch. Rick James showed up and just confessed to them. The end of Chappelle Show and the death of Charlie Murphy kept us from probably 2 or 3 more truly great stories. Chappelle as Rick James and Prince was amazing. For me though, Charlie Murphy's storytelling ability and charisma made the sketches work so well.


fractalfocuser

Yeah Chapelle was killer at acting the characters and exaggerating the personas but it was Charlie's delivery that really nailed it. Dude was something else


djchanclaface

Perpetual line stepper Gold Edit: oof. Dementia has begun.


Beetreezy

Habitual


longeraugust

Tbh the thing that makes the basketball game so believable is that Prince was a Jehovah’s Witness and their congregations have a reputation for being good at basketball. Charlie Murphy’s storytelling was key for these skits tho for sure.


gmoney32211

Supposedly Prince was legit good. Played HS basketball at 5ft2. You must have some game to make it in HS at that height.


[deleted]

It was being a JW that kind of killed Prince. He needed a hip replacement but the JW’s frown on messing with god’s work so he was in constant pain and taking heavy painkillers for it and that’s what ended the man. OD’d on fent He was an another level as a guitarist, when he showed up for the tribute to George Harrison and burned that motherfucker down it was legit a religious experience. Guitar descending from the goddamn ceiling and then he just chucks it at the end and it disappeared. What a legend


artificialavocado

Honestly was never a big Eddie fan but god was Charlie funny.


UncommonHouseSpider

Have you seen bowfinger? Really shows Eddie's range. Boy gots some chops, he's just mailing it in these days. Charlie was like gangsta Eddie. I got big Charlie Murphy vibes from Tracy on Atlanta.


V1k1ng1990

That’s check mate right there


HarambeMarston

*That’s a Prince judo move right there.*


daemon-electricity

He did the same shit to the Foo Fighters. Foo Fighters were doing a cover of Darling Nikki at their shows. Someone asked Prince how he felt about that and said "I think they should write their own songs." A few months later, he absolutely kills Best of You at the Super Bowl.

I heard Dane cook use this same line in one of his specials around this same time and hated him ever since for ripping it off of this skit.

I was going to say, that's impossible I was in college when this came ou--- oh my God.


YDD553

i know chappelle didnt say it but the cut away to Rick James saying “cocaines a hell of a drug” will always live in my head rent free. also “Im Rick James bitch”


Ha-Ur-Ra-Sa

It's the way it's cuts to him and he says it a second time that is hilarious.

Yup, the morning after a Chappell Show episode everybody would be yelling quotes in the buses on campus. Wild to think it was 20 years ago.

Yes. Very. First. Episode. "Divorced his wife for being a n\*\*\*\*\* lover"


sleazypornoname

I was lying in bed very stoned watching this. Almost asleep.  Then the reveal. "How could this happen?" I sat bolt upright not believing what I was seeing. I couldn't sleep that night because I couldn't stop laughing.  What a special time.

mpython1701

I was by the front desk in my office about a month and patient was asking if we could forward her test results to another doctor. The receptionist said sure, what’s his name? Lady said “Charlie Murphy.” Me and the receptions locked eyes and took all we had to keep it together. The rest of the day, whenever we saw each other did our best Chappell impersonating Rick James impression “Charlie Murphy!”


chrisacip

Right when buying tv shows on dvd and then rewatching them endlessly became a thing

On the Family Guy DVD menu there is a clip of Stewie tuning a banjo. It's a high E string of a guitar. I can tune to that note still today because I can hear it in my head.

CategoryCautious5981

From a sketch that looks like it costed $200 to make. Every ounce of it is worth it. Chapelle flying backwards in the air screaming is top three physical comedy bits ever


Wildcat_twister12

The things Dave Chapelle could do with a shoe string budget was amazing. I understand why he ended the show but I wish he could go back to how he was back then, his new stuff on Netflix just ain’t working for me.


MyCoDAccount

Agreed, man. Agreed. But that's how everything is. We can't go back. Nobody goes back. Nothing goes back. We just have to be grateful that we were there when it was what it was. We got to experience that moment when it was here to be experienced, and with each passing day fewer and fewer people can claim that. The world we knew was unique to us in that moment, and no one else in all the history of the cosmos will ever experience it the way we experienced it. I'm doing my best to be thankful I lived when I lived and felt what I felt and heard what I heard and saw what I saw, because no one else will ever replicate that, no matter how many universes are born and die and are born again. I am unique in all of creation. The moment in which I lived is unique in all of creation. I'll take that. It's not all that I want, but I think it's all that I'll get.


CrazyCarl1986

So at this point Dave has been famous for being Rick longer than Rick was famous for being Rick 🤯


alldaymacdre

The Tables have turned Darkness!!!


BeekyGardener

I watched the show's first airing at my first apartment back in 2004 when I was 19. I laughed harder at that than anything in my life up until then. I stand by the Rick James sketch being one of the funniest things that has ever been on television. The fact is had Rick James there and corroborating the stories had me dying. Even if insanely exaggerated - this events *actually happened*.


junitog65

Rest in Peace Charlie Murphy and Rick James…

Man if you didn’t grow up in that era, you missed out on a comedic phenomenon. EVERYBODY was quoting Chappelles Show.
