Eddie Murphy labeled

Legendary comedian, Eddie Murphy has been labeled a "Hollywood Slave" after he took a swipe at his former idol Bill Cosby when he appeared on "Saturday Night Live."

The appearance on the show was Eddie Murphy's first in 35 years and he used the opportunity to talk about how he has change.

Speaking, Eddie Murphy said, “My kids are pretty much my whole life now,” he said, “but if you would have told me 30 years ago that I would be this boring, stay-at-home house dad and Bill Cosby would be in jail, even I would have taken that bet.”

Bill Cosby’s Publicist, Andrew Wyatt, responded to Eddie Murphy’s SNL Monologue:

“Mr. Cosby became the first Black to win an Emmy for his role in I Spy and Mr. Cosby broke color barriers in the Entertainment Industry, so that Blacks like Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappell, Kevin Hart and et al., could have an opportunity to showcase their talents for many generations to come. It is sad that Mr. Murphy would take this glorious moment of returning to SNL and make disparaging remarks against Mr. Cosby.

"One would think that Mr. Murphy was given his freedom to leave the plantation, so that he could make his own decisions; but he decided to sell himself back to being a Hollywood Slave. Stepin Fetchit plus cooning equals the destruction of Black Men in Hollywood.

"Remember, Mr. Murphy, that Bill Cosby became legendary because he used comedy to humanize all races, religions and genders; but your attacking Mr. Cosby helps you embark on just becoming click bait. Hopefully, you will be amenable to having a meeting of the minds conversation, in order to discuss how we can use our collective platforms to enhance Black people rather than bringing all of us down together.”
