Not only did Prince confirm this story (although he says it wasn't so much that he was great, just that Charlie Murphy sucked that badly), but he also used the picture of Chapelle dressed as him serving pancakes as an album cover for his single, "Breakfast Can Wait". RIP to Prince, Charlie Murphy, and Rick James.

Both Prince and Eddie Murphy confirmed this story. He was actually a remarkable basketball player through high school especially for his height, but music was his love.

Charlie Murphy's Rick James Story next please!! It's freakin' hilarious 😝

Every story Charlie Murphy blessed us with on Chappelle Show is legendary status. Chappelle merely gave him the best medium to let them shine ✨

Prince was the starting point guard on his high school team. He was really good!

In my opinion, Prince had a wicked dry humor. He was actually a funny guy. I miss him! 💜

I remember when this first aired. My father doesn't laugh at anything, but he chuckled a few times during this. That's like a rapturous ovation in normal circumstances.

One of the best episode's of The Chappelle Show....anytime Charlie Murphy was on, you know it was gonna be good!

I love Charlie Murphy's storytelling. There are some great ones on KZfaq just him and a blank background. He was a certified badass.

Prince was one of the realest niggas in Hollywood, he is beloved to this day for a reason. Every detail of Charlie's story is verified to be 100% true.

“When keeping it real goes wrong” by Dave too, 🔥🔥

Best True Story Ever And RIP Charlie Murphy He Is Amazing Actor 🙏🏾💯

Wish Charlie had more time to do segments like this. There were at least a dozen instances where I couldn't breath because I was laughing so hard.

The Wayne Brady Chapelle show skit is a must!

I really miss me some Charlie... He did 20 years in the Navy! RIP Shipmate! Funny as all hell.

I’m from Minnesota. My husbands older cousin played against Prince in high school basketball and he confirmed that Prince was an exceptional basketball player.

Charlie Murphy was the most amazing story teller, rip

This was one of my favorites of Chappelle. It's actually based on a true story. Charlie Murphy is hilarious.

The fact that the Man PRINCE himself, verified the story, makes it even funnier!

Once you realize that Prince played on people presuming he couldn't ball just because of his size or whatever, that tells you he was a funny dude.

Please watch Charlie Murphys true Hollywood stories with Rick James next I love that this is 100% true Even better Chappelle holding the plate of pancakes as prince was the cover of Prince's album

This is an absolute classic of television let alone comedy

All these years later and I still say, "game. Blouses," whenever I win at anything.

Charlie got a bunch of stories and they're hilarious

Growing up in the Midwest, I always wanted to hang outside Paisley Park and get into one of Prince's epic parties. Thanks for doing this one!! Prince rocked out "While my Guitar Gently Weeps" at a George Harrison tribute. He played with members of Traveling Wilburys. Definitely worth checking out!

Brandon is really funny when he is imitating/ speaking in someone else's voice!! 🙂It takes talent to do this.👏👏

This and the Rick James one are top 5 all time funniest skits I've ever seen in my life

There was a video with Micki Free who talked about this episode and said it's all 100% true. RIP Prince, and Charlie!

The best parts of this story is that 1, it’s been confirmed by both Eddie Murphy and Prince and 2, Prince used the image of Dave Chappelle dressed as Prince holding pancakes as the album cover for his single “Breakfast Can Wait”

Lots of people don't know that Prince could actually hoop, he was a star basketball player in high school

You young fellas are cool AF!! I appreciate yall bringing back the Old Skool ! Y’all remind me of my homies back in the 80’s and 90’s. Keep it up yall!

Jimmy Fallon has a similar story about Prince challenging him to Ping Pong, utterly destroying him like some Forest Gump level pro, then wordlessly walking out after the match point. It's in Rolling Stone if you search "Jimmy Fallon Prince Ping Pong"

There is a interview where Prince responds to this... I love it.

the faction shirt guy is my favourite 🤩👌

The best was that after this sketch, Prince released a single and the cover art was Chapelle as Prince with the pancakes

This skit literally transcends time lol its still fresh to this day

❤ enjoyed watching this episode with you all. It was like watching tv with my brothers when I was a kid.

This was a real story. That's why it was so hilarious. 😂

Prince's love of basketball was real, he even used to bring backboards to his concerts while he preforms.

Entire 2 seasons of Chappelle show is gold. I have the original collection with bts footage with Dave cracking jokes on set

Charlie Murphy’s Hollywood Stories are the best.!😁

Dang! Y'all never seen this??? Waddup from NZ guys, love your stuff

Pure classic. This will forever be iconic lol

The Prince skit is one of the funniest ever. Especially for white moms. I've never seen my mom and aunts laugh so hard. (They are huge prince fans) Charlie skit is my favorite. Do it next.

Here's a Prince story back in the early 80's I worked at a Headshop/Record store in Minneapolis and Prince was friends with the owner and would stop in once in a while. Now flash forward 25 years my late father became good friends with Larry Graham from "Sly and the Family Stone" Thru Larry my parents became friends with Prince. I called my Mom one day and asked what they had been up to she said "Well last weekend we went to Paisley Park for a private party and Prince put on a show" I was like WTF? Sure enough a week later I went to my parents house and my Dad had a video of him and my Mom (The two whitest people on earth) on stage dancing with Prince and Larry. I thought I had a good Prince story up until Mom and Dad one upped me.

One of my all-time favorites

Yes!! I was hoping you guys would do these ones!! LMAO!!!

This is a comedy classic. Celebration!

Watching Brandon crackin up cracked me up lol I laughed at the same exact shit when I first seen this on The Chappelle Show. I seen a live interview with Prince and he was asked about this and he said it's 100% true. It really happened.

Chappelle show is no joke one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. When it was on I would stay awake until 1 am when i was in high school. I laughed until I cryed every time no cap

FINALLY, you guys are reacting to this! This is one of my favorite skits of all time!

Pure joy-hysterical, always! This one...and then some!

Q: What did the five fingers say to the face? A: SLAP! Lmfao 😂 - Gene A.

R.I.P Charlie and thanks for the legendary stories.

Classic comedy gold right here!

This was the best. Please do more Chappelle. I have all his dvds.

I was waiting for ya'll to fmdo these Charlie Murphy ones!!

Prince in real life released a single, "Breakfast can Wait" in 2013 or 2014. And the CD cover for it was Dave Chapelle from this skit. Still dressed as younger Prince, holding that plate of pancakes. Just internet search it and you'll find the pic.

“Game, blouses” is one of my favorite quotes of all time

Charlie Murphy was the best!!! And this was my favorite!!❤

This had me in tears laughing. I love prince but this hilarious

My mom went to school in Minnesota for a lil bit but said Prince was a good basketball player. I looked him up and at only 5’4 he made 1st team all metro in St Paul/Minneapolis area.

The World Series of Dice, Playa Hater's Ball, & the Rick James sketch are all classics.

"Mo'Shell" I'm dead

All of you guys have beautiful skin. Melanin!

Love love love Dave Chappell! One of the greats!

Lmao ... I Like the different concept reactions ... Phenomenal .

Loved him❤

Best ever!!🔥🔥🔥

The shirts against the blouses 😂

Second best skit of all skits. Charlie Murphy and Rick James is GOAT.

Thank you guys for the great content you put out everyday💯could you please look into reacting to Charlamagne sus moments😂😂I promise you they won’t disappoint

This a True Story 💯% R.I.P. Prince & Charlie Murphy

Prince was a maniac competitor. There are stories of him challenging people to ping pong, pool, all kinds of stuff. And he would show up and talk shit and beat everyone and laugh in their face for it. They told a bunch of stories on Jimmy Fallon about it after he died. Apparently he just loved to compete in all kinds of games and was fiercely competitive.

Y'all gotta do The Wayne Brady skit 😂😂😂😂😂

Chappelle's Juicy Smollett Stand up 🤣

Charlie Murphy skits from chappelle show go hard as hell.

The comedy central version split in those 2 parts is missing a chunk of what originally aired.

So good!! My friend named her dog Charlie Murphy, hes a wild man!😀

Some of these skits so hard to find now gotta watch the channel just to see it.

Gotta do The Mad Real World Chappelle skit 🤣💯

Chappell walking away from that 3rd season deal was badass. Integrity!

If you haven't already, you guys should react to some old In Living Color skits, like Men on Film, or some Jamie Foxx stuff.

Bro, the Charlie Murphy stories were the very best part of the Chapelle Show

The dude all the way in the back is tough to crack. Barely laughed. I was dying!

Rip Charlie and Prince

I think Prince said that if he knew Charlie Murphy was gonna be truthful about the story, he would've played himself in the skit.

Damn 😂homie said “I hate Boosie!” 😂😂 sheesh that’s crazy dangerous tho 😅😅

This is my 2nd favorite Chapelle skit, the Rick James is 3rd Black & Bush is my favorite it’s too funny.

I've seen this at least 5 times. Always 😂 HILARIOUS♡ Charley Murphy was so damn funny,yall gotta ck out the Rick James episode!

RICK JAMES!!!! Do Charlie’s Rick James stories!!

Cartier Fam on fire with these last few days of drops

He went to Africa for 2 weeks. Watch his first interview after hanging low with Letterman. It was hysterical

Micki Free actually told this story the best. 100% true

Dave Chappelle has said that if you support him, boycott Chappelle's Show. He said don't watch it because those various organizations that are still streaming the show are stealing his work. Miss the show but love Dave. Keep keepin it real.

Darling picky sends me every time

Hey, you guys have to do the R. Kelly one! 😆😄

R.I.P. Charlie Murphy; Prince!

Poor Prince was scouted to go pro, but he was too short for the NBA. So glad he was, I don't know what we would have done without him in the music industry!

this cheered me up! felt like I was watching it with y'all
