Rudy Ray Moore - The Legend of Dolemite: Bigger & Badder

Rudy Ray Moore tells all as only he can in this all-new retrospective of his fine, fine, super-fine career. From his humble post-war beginnings as turbaned adagio dancer, comedian and singer Prince Dumar to his crowning as "King of the Party Records," Rudy Ray guides us through his struggles with the music industry establishment and his efforts to press and promote his own records when nobody else would. Witness the ture story of the man who influenced a multitude of comedians, including Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall; the man whose rhythmic, rhyming comedy has influenced two generations of Rap artists. Listen to his admirers and colleagues, including Lady Reed, director John Landis, Snoop Dogg, Eazy-E, Mike D. of the Beastie Boys and Ice-T, who share their thoughts on the man who has made a lasting impression on their lives and careers.
