Oh you thought Jamie Foxx was the first triple threat comedian? Nah it was O.G. Eddie Murphy. If you’ve seen Dave Chappelle’s show then you know that Eddie Murphy and Rick James were tight as hell in the 80’s. Their friendship created not only the true Hollywood stories of Eddies brother Charlie Murphy, but this classic of a fascinating train-wreck. The Party All The Time song and video. First off let me say that Edward Murphy’s message in this song is still relevant today and this song was made in 1985. A lot of broads in love with the club scene and wonder why they can’t find a man to be in love with them. Most dudes just want Netflix nights with a chick they’re digging,but that’s a whole other blog post lets get back to this video. I love how the video starts off with Eddie walking into the studio with the legit “I’ve never been in or seen an actual recording studio” face. This is corroborated by everyone in the studio giving Eddie daps like it’s their first time ever meeting him and Rick having to tell Eddie put the headphones on. In the first verse you can see Eddie looking nervous with the ” Am I doing this right?” look on his face, but you see him actually get comfortable before the second verse and that’s when the video jumps to the next level. It turns into a karaoke session,people grooving,people laughing,and just having a good time. Peep my girl at 2:22 just vibing and laughing,and my dog at 2:28 rubbing up on himself like he’s on Ecstasy. It’s awesome watching Eddie come out of his shell and by the third verse look at everyone with the “I got this shit.” look on his face, but my favorite part of the whole video is Rick James on the soundboards with the clenched fist and look of awe like he’s witnessing greatness happen. Little did we know that he actually was.
