I thought the standup routine Charlie Murphy was working small clubs with after the initial Chappelle show blow up in interest in Eddie's brother sounded like an Eddie influenced or even penned set. When I caught Charlie Murphy's standup as a headliner at Second City a few years later, it sounded like pure Charlie Murphy--or at least no Eddie influence--but had very few laughs.
