Murphy rose to fame while appearing on Chappelle's Show, in which he played recurring characters such as Buc Nasty and Rodney "Quills" Dinkin. He also narrated the Charlie Murphy's True Hollywood Stories segment. Perhaps his most famous segment was when he portrayed Rick James. It became one of Chappelle's Show's most iconic moments.
"RIP Charlie Murphy," wrote Neal Brennan, co-creator of Chappelle's Show. "First stuff I ever officially directed were the Rick James and Prince stories. Dude changed my life. One of the most unique people I've ever met. So funny. So weird. I truly don't think anyone had ever used the term 'Habitual Line-Stepper' before Charlie said it that day. Unforgettable dude. Really sad."
Rest in peace, Charlie.
