Comedian Deon Cole delves into the unparalleled legacy of legendary standup and movie star Eddie Murphy. Throughout the discussion, Cole emphasizes Murphy's unmatched status in the comedy and film industry, stating that no other comedian has reached his level of cinematic success. Despite this financial and popular success, Cole acknowledges that Richard Pryor, another titan in the comedy world, played a pivotal role in shaping the landscape for Black comedians, including Murphy, by breaking significant social barriers. Deon Cole shares a humorous behind-the-scenes anecdote from working on the movie "You People" alongside Murphy. He reveals how Murphy, owing to his extraordinary wealth and status, even had a "fake Eddie Murphy" stand-in for certain scenes, which Cole playfully labels as "billionaire behavior."
