    1. Eddie was James Brown, singing Buckwheat and Little Richards Simmons. A one man music festival. Also one funny, funny man.

    2. Eddie does phenomenal imitations of people. Saw one he did of Tracy Morgan the other day and Tracy Morgan was part of the skit lol.

    3. “Should I get in the hot tub?”
      “Will it make me wet??”
      “Should I get in the hot tub??”
      “Will it make me sweat???”
      “Well…well…well…”

      Yeah, Murphy can do James Brown.

    4. I’ve seen hundreds and hundreds of artists live. I’ve seen Paul, Elton, MJ, Bruno Mars, Billy Joel, the Boss, basically every big name in the last 30 years. I have never seen someone with more stage presence than James Brown. The second that man walks on stage with that smile you’re just like, this dude was born to perform.
