Written and produced by Rick James and Kevin Johnston and ranked as #36 on the list of the 100 Worst Songs Ever. Comedian and actor Eddie Murphy scored big in 1985 with this infectious and catchy track that basically complained about his girlfriend’s addiction to ” Party All The Time” The track which was Murphy’s second attempt in the music biz reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100.Djs of the time embraced the track at both clubs and private events. Rick Jame’s signature funk sound were all over this track which featured Eddie Murphy getting down and serious in the studio with James by his side on the Video. Rick James appearance gave the track the credibility it needed since a solo attempt by Murphy would have been greeted as a parody. His third album Love’s alright only reached #80Eddiemurphyalbum
Recently Eddie has has been trying his hand in the Reggae Genre with a Snoop Dog Collab titled ” Red Light”…..not bad Eddie …Good Luck!
