Randy Watson and Sexual Chocolate drop the mic
Randy Watson may have been the first performer to drop the mic at the end of his performance with his band Sexual Chocolate in the 1988 original. The legendary Watson is back for the sequel as Murphy donned the heavy prosthetic makeup and plenty of padding to groove again for the movie s big party.
Sexual Chocolate has proven a pervasive, rich treat in pop culture with tribute bands such the Randy Watson Experience, featuring musicians Questlove and James Poyser. Hall has received call-outs for the band since the release, even though it s Murphy playing the character. I went to a Supersonics game up in Seattle and this guy yells, Sexual Chocolate! he says. That’s what my life became after.
